taylorbuck's review against another edition
0.25
This is a dark “romance” where the MMC happens to play hockey. There’s no tags or CWs anywhere in sight and it’s very poorly written. There’s a whole host of issues with the book itself but also this author behaves badly. Reporting low reviews and bashing bad reviews. Towards the end of the book she tells in no during a sexual encounter and he continues on. It is not CNC it’s straight up rape. Just because it’s not explicitly physically violent doesn’t make it something else.

I saw this allover BookTok and I always get nervous about reading its recs because I worry that they won't live up to the hype. Rest assured, this definitely did!
I can sometimes struggle to get through ice hockey romances because they can be really long or slow paced, but this was literally everything I needed and more. I did it in one sitting, and now I'm annoyed that book 2 isn't available yet. Roll on book 2!
