I am willing to forgive so much in a romance novel but apparently the thing that does it for me is the main character

🌶️🌶️🌶️.5
Hand necklace, Jacob’s ladder, inexperienced MFC, cocky hockey captain
Loved the chemistry from the start, Camden is a really good guy you didn’t get in the other books
Loved her personality and not take any shit, no victim-attitude

This entire series was amazing but THIS ONE is my absolute favorite. I love an extra spicy bad boy MMC and Cam certainly delivers. I go absolutely feral for a good “who hurt you?” moment, which this book definitely has, but Jordana is no shrinking violet and I adored how she really comes into her own. I will read literally anything by this author, forever.
