Summer is joy and light. Her ability to see the good in everything (except perhaps herself) and her will to make friends with everyone is inspiring. The journey she takes during The Chase is beautiful and I can’t wait to read more about her in the rest of this series.

I wish we’d had a bit more Colin in this book. Though he’s a closed off character, I’d hoped that we’d get more from his perspective so we could dive in a bit deeper. Hopefully we see more as the series continues!

The learning disorder visibility is wonderful and so important. Really well done and a huge thank you to Elle Kennedy.

This book is exactly as advertised imo. A hockey romance with a cute couple that goes through a tough experience together and also has a bunch of sex. If you want something fun and easy to read I’d definitely suggest it. 

The writing style is perfect for these types of books, quick and cute with great banter and the knack for putting a character archetype on page without it feeling judging or shallow. 

I will likely continue reading Elle Kennedy books as she’s set herself up with a great cast of characters to expand in, and other characters from previous books are clearly mentioned here that I might be interested learning about. 

If you like contemporary new adult sports romances, I’d say this is a good place to live in for a while. 


Trigger warnings-
Sexual harassment and assault
Grown men getting butthurt because a girl told them no
Ableism towards learning disabilities like ADHD
Some self deprecating thoughts

Appreciated the ADHD/learning disability representation. Sadly the writing remains terrible.
