Ok, I went into this book completely blind. All I knew was that it was dark, a hockey romance and had a shopping list of trigger warnings. Tick, tick and a big ol’ tick!! This book was fantastic. I truly felt all of the emotions from the characters. It did feel like a bit of a puzzle at times, trying to piece together what happened. The only reason I gave it 4 stars was because…

Lachlan found Lyla aka De-lil-ah way too easy. I feel like the angst of that scenario could have been prolonged and we could have delved a little deeper into the past as well as into the three years she was MIA but overall, I thoroughly enjoyed this one.

Part One of Until I Get You takes place in their last semester of their respective senior years in college. Lachlan is a star hockey player, known for women falling at his feet, and never really having to try too hard, if at all, to get the girl. Until he meets Lyla one night at a party he doesn't even want to be at, and she shares the same sentiment. Lachlan is immediately drawn to Lyla, unexplainably so, and begins to chase a girl for the first time in his life.
That is until one of his teammates (who is also one of Lylas best friends) lets him know that theres more to her than meets the eye when he can't help but ask questions & want to know more about her after their first encounter. You can definitely feel the spark between them, it jumps off the pages (much to both of their attempts to deny it).
Lachlan is so incredibly caring towards Lyla in all ways, and definitely when it comes to the spice in this book. I would rate it a 3/5 🌶️, it's more about the connection they share than the overall dirtiness yanno?
The book is separated into two parts: the first centered around their last few months in college, before shit hits the fan and Lylas past comes back to haunt her,
Part two of Until I Get You takes place
I definitely did not see
Additionally, PLEASE CHECK YOUR TRIGGERS before reading this, as there is incredibly dark content that could really affect sensitive readers. I'll list content warnings as always below, but just exercise caution.
