It was fine. Writing was meh. Lots of telling, not showing. Characterization didn't feel consistent. FMC was unrealistically snotty towards the MMC in the beginning just for the sake of the author writing hate sex scenes. She was also hyper oblivious to the antagonist being abusive despite being her very therapeutized. First third dragged. I had to power through most of the book. There were some fourth wall breaking moments that really took me out of it. 

Sex scenes were fine. FMC is able to orgasm just from penetration. The almost cartoony cover combined with how explicit some of the scenes were feels like a disaster waiting to happen (I'm just imagining a preteen picking this up at Target and paging though because it looks cute). Ending was super shifty considering
they explicitly talked about her not wanting to get pregnant until she achieved some major career goals - felt like it really undermined how ambitious she was made out to be. Also getting pregnant after one time of throwing up the pill felt cheap.


Read only because a friend lent it to me and I felt obligated to finish it. Read the first 40 pages, put it down for about a month, then finished it in a laborious sitting. Extremely unlikely to read any of the author's other works.

Even if you're not a sports romance reader, this book has a little bit of everything for every kind if reader. The ending is kind of corny, but I expected nothing less from a fluff book like this.

I love Anastasia and Nate they are so cute and a perfect match!! I loved how they helped eachother grow and that Anastasia finally noticed what a piece of shit Aaron is (sorry for my rudeness but Aaron deserves it!). The Ending was perfect I am so happy for them and that they achieved their dreams but now I wanna see them with their little girl o̴̶̷̥᷅﹏o̴̶̷̥᷅ Still it was so cute♡♡♡

This is the epitome of enemies to lovers!! I’m not just obsessed with her relationship with Nate, but with all the guys. I love the family they find together. This book is so sexy and sweet and just so good!! I definitely see why it’s everyone’s favorite hockey romance.

I actively avoided this book for over a year because it was a "booktok book" and I genuinely regret not reading it sooner. It's not perfect but it is way better than I expected and an enjoyable read. It's not all spice with no plot which was a very real concern of mine going in but it's a good story with spice throughout, the only proper way to write a spicy book in my opinion as a smut reader since the age of 13. The plot gets a bit predictable at points but is still able to grip you. The characters are lovely (
except Arron
) and were where I got most of my enjoyment from. I will absolutely be reading more from this author in the future.
