A fun, fast paced and utterly satisfying read! Though not technically a Sports Romance (the author describes it more as a college romance) I did like the glimpse into figure skating (and to a lesser extent Hockey) that we get. Two sports I’m not overly familiar with but always love to read about whenever they crop up. 

Though I confess, the cosy, found family-esque friendship we see in Nate’s team and how much they genuinely care about each other (and also Anastasia) really made this a far more heartwarming read than I expected. 

We also get a lot more depth to our protagonists (which I hadn’t anticipated either) but really loved. Especially when it came to Anastasia, whose complex relationship dynamics and struggle with self acceptance so explored incredibly well. The emotions conveyed were everything! 

However, it was the chemistry between her and Nate (which was scorchingly good) that really won me over. Well, that and their fabulously witty banter which I couldn’t get enough of.

And the supporting cast were really well written (and endearing) too! Lola, JJ, Henry and Russ all won me over with their adorably entertaining personalities and I’m definitely excited to see more of them (even if only in cameo form.) 

Though, knowing Russ and Henry have their own books has definitely made me more eager to continue the series.

If you like Rom-coms with plenty of sexy, chemistry laden (open door) scenes along with plenty of banter, then you should definitely consider checking out — just be sure to check the trigger warnings first.
