Jesus Christ. What was this and why was it THIRTEEN HOURS long. And why did I have to hear so much about fucking blowjobs. “Your Christmas gift to me was letting me cum inside you without a condom” Gross. GROSSSSSS. And people are swooning in all the reviews about Nate being a perfect bf and everything excuse me while I puke.
This is a book I purchased on Libro as a “fun read” and had to suffer through because I’d paid money for it.
And not to be super extra about it, but for all the fucking they did, they never fucked when he was in his hockey uniform or she was in her leotard which feels like a missed opportunity that tiktok would have EATEN UP.
Also, I thought that Nathan was gonna have to skate with her in the final, which would have made more sense with the rest of the book.
Oh, and we’re just going to throw this little diddy into the epilogue where the FMC is pregnant (and her therapist who has been her therapist for like 14 years says that pregnancy suits her????): “with an Olympic gold medal winner as a mother and a Stanley cup winner as a father….” (paraphrased) ???????????? NOT EVERYTHING NEEDS TO BE THIS WAY

The cover of this book misleadingly makes it look like a cute, innocent, lighthearted romance. The characters and their relationships, however, are certainly not ‘innocent’. Most of the book is more about lust than love, which I personally didn’t want to read.
