I liked their dynamic and the daddy issues. Micheal was sexy
for me
This book was pretty good. I enjoyed the couple. They were really cute together. I do think the whole dad and sister trouble was resolved a little too fast for me but it wasn’t completely bad. I loved the relationship the MMC had with Cal. It was just a cute father figure relationship. I hope Cal has a book because I think it would be so good. The ending was slightly unclimactic but not horrible. Overall it was a good book with the potential to be great but wasn’t. I say an average book would recommend. 3/5

the plot was average but i related to both of them so much. michael was so selfless and near the end even though naomi broke is heart he still understood. and naomi although was stupid near the end i can never be mad at my girl, i’m a twin like her and i talked to her issues so much, so 5 stars
4.25 STARS
Michael’s hockey playing days are over, he’s moved to another state and is getting his advanced degree and interning for the college’s hockey coach. He’s a bit of a loner now, tries to keep to himself.
Naomi is a self proclaimed nerd, data and trivia are her passion’s, she’s also interning for the coach.. who is her father.
Michael and Naomi have really fun banter, they click in that special way. I loved their jokes, conversations and the tension of their attraction is definitely hot!
They are friends who flirt and then friends with benefits. Both are convinced anything more would be bad because Naomi’s dad could get upset and ruin both their academic/work opportunities.
The secondary characters are fun, Naomi has a great girl squad. Lots of laughs with them.
She also has a twin (the “pretty” twin who is popular and has things in common with Dad) that she’s got some hurt feelings about.
Michael left his University after a tragedy, he’s still adjusting to life after loss.
They both have some emotional things holding them back and they are hurting.
They really bring out the best in each other and seem to have a connection, they understand each other.
I think they are a really fun pair, I enjoyed their story so much!
They have real feelings for each other and they have playful and fiery chemistry.
Obviously lines get blurred and things have to change.
I loved them and their story. Such an enjoyable, lower angst romance.

The Puck Drop by Jaqueline Snowe
After reading Holdout in the Moo U World of True North series, Jaqueline Snowe had my attention. So much so that I was dying for Michael’s story next, The Puck Drop, even though the name Michael makes me cringe. So much so that I signed up for her arc team. So much so I signed up for the arc for this book before seeing the cover (I’m cover judgy). So much so that I read this book even though the cover makes me blush

Micheal Reiner was definitely a man written by a woman. Tall, dark, handsome, great communication skills and everything he says is sexy as hell?! The way this man cared for Naomi and genuinely wanted her to succeed with her relationships with her dad and sister was so heart warming. Naomi was adorable and I loved her, but she did anger me when she wasn’t happy for Michael when he got the job. She got back in my good graces when she was the one who went to Michael and told him it was her fault leaning into her insecurities. Great book and I loved them together.
three stars! ⋆ ˚｡⋆୨୧˚ mmm i’m pretty conflicted on the rating for this tbh, may end up changing it to two stars after i think about it. i think i skimmed the last 15% bc i just wasn’t interested anymore but didn’t want to dnf, but it also isn’t like i hated it or anything. it was just a pretty average read, ig? i didn’t really care for any of the characters all too much, and the writing wasn’t really my favorite. naomi’s character annoyed the hell out of me for the majority of the book. the plot was pretty predictable, the spice was lowkey kinda cringy, and i felt like everything wrapped up together a little too well, if you know what i mean. sure, there were some cute moments, and michael’s character wasn’t the worst, but overall i just don’t think this was for me. i’ve heard good things about some of the other books in the series, so i definitely think i’ll give those a shot, but right now i don’t necessarily have high expectations lol
