Listen, I love hockey romances and will mindlessly read through them like I've never read a hockey romance before in my life.
That being said, this book truly felt more like a high school hockey romance than a college romance and it gave me the ick. I wanted to enjoy it and there were certain things I did enjoy but after a while it was just too much and I had to DNF.

the grammatical errors, cringey cliches, and bad writing made me feel like i was in 2013 reading a romance novel on wattpad.

Correct me if I’m wrong but I think this is written by an Australian and it’s YA.
I think there were alot of hockey details that might have been overlooked in the romanticising of the book, though what do I know as an Australian? But I’m sure you can’t really figure skate and do jumps and twirls on ice hickey skates.
Plot wise it’s a girl meets boy in meet cute (sort of, after they already met). Both have different reasons for trying to p/$$ off her ex so they decide to fake date, which they do, catch feelings, and fall out. Will they or won’t they get back together?
So he’s a bad boy from the wrong side of town. She’s … well not really a developed character and I thought more could have been made of her. She was portrayed as naive in one sense, when she initially seemed more aware, and I wonder if all the negative feedback I’m seeing about her could have been avoided by giving her a little more credibility.
Some good peer relationships, a little too much ‘boys being boys’ attitude for his brothers but a decent YA offering for the right readers.
