“First and foremost—be confident. Second—be spontaneous. Third—the only opinion that matters is your own.” 

I had so much fun listening to this book, as I had in the first one. Although I can't help comparing the first two books because I'm kind of bias towards Garrett and seeing him have lots of cameos in this book made me squeal just a little bit. 

I love Logan and his personality - yes, granted that he was a freaking manwhore, I still love him nonetheless. It actually made sense he was such because of the way he was raised up. So imagine when someone such as Grace comes into his life. And it was accidental too! What a meet-cute! UGH. Their relationship at first was rocky, given the fact that Logan was "into" someone else at that time before he got slapped in the face by someone, ehem ehem G. So it was months of agony for him because if you're like Grace, you're somewhat done, right? But the way Logan pursued Grace into going out with him - the list!!!! You just can't blame Grace for giving him a second chance. Throughout the rest of the story, I saw how much they both meant for one another and how making a simple mistake could literally break it off but they both made it work somehow. Especially during the time where the V card was going to be thrown out. Logan was very gentle with Grace and if I was Grace, I would have been very appreciative too. Most girl's firsts aren't as gentle as that. 

Logan's background was very sad as well. Kind of in-par with Garrett's. I just thought it was kind of expected how that would have gone in the end and I'm glad that it happened the way it did because Logan deserves to be happily playing hockey. Plus points for giving the readers a sneak peek of what would be the future of the two couples (LxG and GxH)!!!!

18+. this book has a lot of problems and is definitely ignorant in some regards but it was a cute book. the ✨spicy✨ scenes were fun and the relationship between the two was not fully boring.
