Not gonna lie, I was getting a more and more disappointed with Natasha Madison’s books. It felt like her initially books following Zara and Evan, Zoe and Viktor etc, were much better written and had better flow of plot and character development, and the following books (in particular the previous 5), felt rushed and like the proper plot development wasn’t given, and like I was reading a bunch of the same book with continuously worse writing. But THIS one, WOW! The flow of the story was perfect, it gave callbacks to all the previous characters without feeling forced, and the mental health representation was amazing. For a hockey romance, this was really well done and I would happily read it again, not just a book I wanted to check off to keep up with the characters. And of course, the spice was 👌🏻👌🏻 But it actually felt well placed in the story and not so much like it was there for the sake of having smut
