This was really cute and I loved the summer camp setting but it just didn't hit as hard as Icebreaker did. Aurora and Russ were both great characters and I really liked that their lives paralleled each other in a lot of ways. They were sweet together and had such a genuine connection but I just wasn't obsessed with them. There were some adorable moments but a lot of the dialogue just felt cheesy for some reason?
I'd still recommend this for a fun summary romance but it's not a new favourite which is a bit disappointing

This was leagues better than Icebreaker because the characters actually liked and respected each other and were very likeable themselves, but, man, I wish we got more of the summer camp. In fact, I don't think much summer-camping happened at all. Did the kids even show up? Or did this all happen in pre-training?

Ok I loved more Icebreaker, but this was equally amazing, cute and sensible , I loved Russ and Aurora. Their story was cute and fun. And definitely more deep. 100 % will recommend

I’ve never seen camp counselors with this much free time??? And unfortunately for this book I get the ick whenever Russ says “sweetheart.”
The heartfelt parent / child relationship plot lines felt random to me and just thrown in there.
And I’m sorry butthey walk out of the end of camp talent show to go boink in the cabin and then come back to watch the rest of the performances like they don’t have a job to do??? I guess they don’t need to be watching the kids all the time when there is a 1:3 counselor/camper ratio. What is this place.
Thankfully little to no hockey. So if you’re like me and thought you were getting tricked into reading a sports romance, you are in the clear.
