Elle Kennedy does it again: hard-hitting subjects woven beautifully with a love story. My heart hurts as I read Elle’s writing and yet it also feels so incredibly full. I’ll read anything she writes.

Logan and Grace were fun to read about! I found Logan an appealing MMC - a romantic, well-intending, rehabilitated player - and the logical person to focus on for the second book. Logan’s determined, long-time pining for Grace, grand gestures included, is what we all want… *effort.*

Hell, even Morris wants to date Logan!

I enjoyed how Hannah from the previous book helped Logan understand he didn’t actually want *her* but the type of relationship she has with Garrett. Loved their little cameos!

Logan’s loyalty to his family and willingness to ignore his own hockey dreams was heavy and tough to read about at times, not having experience with addiction, but made him that more endearing and that much better of a match for Grace.

Better than the first one but still missing some trigger warnings at the beginning of the book.

I loved this just as much as The Deal! The Mistake follows Logan and Grace. Logan is obsessing over best friend Garrett’s girlfriend Hannah, and shagging anything that moves to get over her.

But then he meets Grace. Did he really ever love Hannah? Or was he envious of her and Garrett’s love and relationship?

He’s good enough to go pro with ice hockey after university but his Dad’s alcoholism may prevent him from doing so.

Can is dad change his ways? And can Logan confess his feelings to Grace before he pushes her away?

I liked the dual first person POV, and found Grace and Logan likeable as characters. The spice was pretty good too after the initial slow burn! I’ll definitely read on with this series.
