Livro muito típico da Lynn Painter. É fake dating, como todos os livros dela, o que faz com que eles se começem a misturar um pouco na minha cabeça. Acho que ele precisava de algo para se destacar dos outros. Gostei muito da Dani, das melhores fmc da Lynn. Acho que a referência constante a músicas no monólogo interior das personagens por vezes é desnecessário, ninguém pensa assim.  Além disso, sinto que faltou algo na resolução do conflito... Em geral, é um romance ya muito fofo. 
lighthearted medium-paced

this book ATTTEEEEE. i love her romcoms so much. alec and dani r to DIEEE FOR. i fucking love hockey sosoos much so when i found out she was releasing a hockey romance i DIED. ugh the tension between them is unreal. ending was rushed tho and i wished the whole ignroing postcards thing was dragged out more. found family in this is so cute. inaccurate things such as teenagers would not press charges for fighting 😭😭 and inaccuracy i feel for recruiting and allllllll but also how ur telling me the most popular kid doesn’t have social media?? hockey captain isn’t a slut?? lolll wtf  this was so cute tho i loved.

Lynn Painter just never disappoints. Painter depicted the change in their personalities and their dynamic over the years seamlessly and smoothly. The changes in the characters feel so natural, it felt like I was the character, as if they were real

Lynn painter is a genius yet again. While I’m not usually into the jock type for a love interest I loved Alec and Dani. I love childhood friends to lovers. I will say the miscommunication trope will never not be frustrating. Also fake dating is such a good trope. I almost wished they leaned into that a little longer but I love the built up tension. I never thought I’d be rooting for a fictional hockey team but I was also invested in that. I also loved her grandfather. I would never forgive the father personally but at least it’s a happy ending ig!
