Gotta start this off by saying I am here for Stevie. A curvy, plus sized POC fmc who is working on her self love. *chefs kiss* I love this girl. 

Now, Zee “daddy” Zanders has officially been added to my list of book boyfriends. Dominant, brutally honest, gives good banter, melts for his niece, talks dirty and backs it up, kinky, self aware and in therapy, dog dad…. If it wasn’t for that end game stumble of his this book might have been five stars. 

Alas, Miles High falls victim to leaning on the miscommunication trope for its end game issues. But Liz put in all the ground work to carry the trope off with minimal head banning and screaming at the mc’s. 

I couldn’t stay mad, and the end game character growth really made up for putting me through that. I have a strong feeling I will be devouring the rest of this series, because I am so here for the side characters and Ryan and Indy deserve all the love. 

Also the spice in this book had me blushing, and laughing, and squirming all throughout. Theres such a good balance between plot and smut, and I am here for the praise kink and light choking. These two are so hot together! Ahhh!!!! 

For anyone unsure about investing the time into a romance this long, just know it’s worth it. The book fleshes out so many of its characters and that leads to a loveable cast of side characters and it doesn’t rush the romance. Theres no instalove here (except mine for Stevie, Rosie, Xanders, Indy and Ryan) also hurray for good book dads.

Fun and enjoyable romance. My first sports romance, and luckily didn’t really revolve much around hockey itself. Both MCs are interesting, flawed and likable. Cheesy ending in the best way.

GOD. This made me feel ALL THE FEELS. You guys. You guys. I'm not a sports romance girlie. But I think I'm gonna turn into one after this.

The relationship was so so good but mainly it was so real and godddd, these two really had me on the edge of my seat, fighting for them in the end 😭😭 

Like, is the third-act-breakup realistic? Yes. Did they both have good reasons for acting like they did? Also yes. Did that make it hurt any less? NO

liz i will be sending u my therapy bills

Truly, one of the best plus-size MC's I've read in SO long and like everything else, it was just so realistic. Yes, Stevie does love her body sometimes. But sometimes she hates it. Because that's what life as a plus-size woman is like! *cue to me crying*

As I said, in the end there were some.....moments that weren't it for me, there were so many missed chance and those things just infuriate me lmao so this probably isn't like a 5 stars more like a 4.75?? Or still a 5 i can't decide

But stillll, the breakup was healthy! Love that for them

As soon as I got over the 40% mark, I really spent every moment thinking about reading this book, so yes, would definitely recommend!

Still don't believe romances need to be longer than 300pgs but for Stevie and Zee, I'll forgive it.
