I didn’t think I’d enjoy the non-cowboy romance story in this series but I will always be a hockey romance gal at heart. Jasper offering to kick someone’s ass to make Sloane happy, peak fictional hockey romance MMC energy.
I can’t wait to read about Winter shedding the dead weight creepo husband and Theo “mother of my child” Silva 😌

Why did they hype up the name sunny and never tell us why she has that nickname?

Sloane and Jasper are so cute. Childhood best friends to lovers has always been a favorite trope of mine. I wasn’t sure how I’d feel about the damsel in distress vibe Sloan had and the supposed ‘unrequited love’ but it really went well. Elsie Silver makes tropes I thought I didn’t like shine. I just loved everything about them. Jasper is honestly so pretty to me!! a tortured closed off book boyfriend just does it for me!!! They really felt like Yin and Yang. If anything, id say Jasper and Sloane are soulmate material. I knew when he only said a few words but man THAT MAN IS A FREAK. In a good way of course. Like who gave him the right to be so damn hot all the time?? I was actually kicking my feet and giggling so hard. I just really loved how they supported eachother and the whole “it was always you” fuck my heart hurts. ELSIE SILVER my lord and savior. Reckless is going to make me loose my mind but what’s new in Chestnut Springs. Whew lord I love men written by women.

Bro her dad was PISSING ME OFF AND sterling?? Jesus. Nothing will ever piss me off like Rob from book one. I’m plotting his downfall

“Times have changed, Sloane. I’m not scared anymore. You’re not my fucking friend. You’re just mine.”

“Don’t you get it, Jas? I’ve seen all the darkest parts of you and I’m still here. I still want more. Stop trying to scare me away. It isn’t going to work.”

“The answer is no. None of that shit matters. Because we’re me and you. We’re us. Unlikely and inevitable all at once. We’re forever.”

“See, Sloane? You can wear someone else’s ring, but we both know you’ve always been mine.”

“Sunny, you’re gonna make me lose my mind.” “Good,” I murmur against his mouth. “We’ll be insane together. I’m so tired of doing it alone.”

“Nah, Sunny. You’re my only girl.”

Jasper: You’re not people.
Sloane: Lmao. What am I then?
Jasper: My person.

“The real question is, do any of those other people matter when I only ever see you? When I only ever think about you? When I’ve done nothing but become more and more obsessed with you since I was told to stay away from you?
Do they, Sloane? Do they matter? Does any of that seem like it matters on the face of what you and I have happening right now? In the face of eighteen years of friendship? In the face of wanting each other for so long? Is a single other person even a factor? Even a blip on the radar?”
