TROPES:
- Ice hockey
- Obsessed hero with psychotic tendencies
- If I can't have you, nobody can
- Wrong number/mistaken identity
- Virgin heroine
- OTT & protective hero

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!

Just… horrific. This book made me wish I was illiterate. And not having any content warnings… what a freaking joke.

i genuinely don’t understand how fucked in your head you have to be to trick readers into thinking this is a romance - he tracks her, he stalks her, he RAPES her this is abhorrent and despicable stuff and quite clear the author relished torturing the FMC i should have DNF-ed; punk 57 (extreme edition)
