This is a perfect fit for readers who crave a steamy and suspenseful romance with a possessive hero, a dash of mystery, and a strong focus on the emotional intensity of a second-chance love story, all set against the backdrop of the high-stakes world of professional hockey. Get ready to be kept on the edge of your seat!

This one is insta-lusty (and I am here for it!), the spice starts pretty early, but the relationship takes its sweet time developing, and there is no third act breakup (donโt be fooled what happens is in some ways worse)
Here is all the things I loved:
๐ Josslyn - she was so sweet and kind to a fault. To the point she would risk her life and put herself in harms way for other people who donโt deserve it.
๐ Finn Barlow - Holy molly, he is obsessive, possessive, jealous but good grief is he super loving ๐ซ when he learned Jossโs love language he did whatever he could to show her his affection that way ๐ฅน
๐ต๐ฝโโ๏ธ The mystery plot - crumbs were being dropped everywhere and at one point I thought that the person being accused was being used to cover up for another person. WRONG, and when the truth is discovered I was stunned to silence
๐ฅน All the cameos from the previous book. Lach, Lyla, and little Theo make an appearance regularly and keep me laughing with their antics.
๐๐ฝ The conversation that happened after a big discovery! It was mature, calmed, and collected
Who do I recommend this for?
๐ If you enjoy sports romances
๐ซ multi-cultural romance
๐ซ Duo POV
โฅ๏ธ Found Family
๐ฎโ๐จ Mutual pining
โ๏ธ Touch her and โ ๏ธ
๐ต๐ฝโโ๏ธ Mystery plot
๐ฎโ๐จ An obsessive hero
