I loved it !!! I am truly happy with Deacon and Brynlee’s story. We have meet Brynlee in previous books and she’s always been someone with a strong personality. Also Deacon was one hawk of a man !!! His relationship with kid daughter was heartwarming and the way he also interacted with Brynlee was something I loved. I loved the relationship between them and how he was Brynlee’s teenage crush

What a way to end the series ! Brynnie is the true heart of the group, and I'm so glad she got her happily ever after! Deacon is definitely
the perfect man for her, i love that they already had history! I absolutely loved the cameos from Cade, Scarlett, Amelia, Sam, and Beckett! I think this may be my favorite of all Bella's books! 5 stars. And I think my absolute favorite part of the story was they got married on Block Island. Block Island is my absolute favorite place in the world. I grew up going there and still to this day frequent there. Being a Rhody rat ..(Rhode islander) Block Island is a summer staple.

The Sweet Spot is the 4th book in the Playing To Win series. It’s a single parent, hockey romance.

Oh man Brynlee and Deacon had such an emotionally packed love story. I could feel their chemistry from the beginning until the very end. I loved how possessive and sweet Deacon could be. Brynnie’s independence paired so well with his. I can’t get enough of these entertaining family dynamics.

❝Where the hell have you been all my life?” He cups my face, and I lean my cheek into his hand. “Right here, waiting for you to notice me.❞

Bella ended this series with all the feels, Brynlee and Deacon packed a punch and took a couple punches to get to their HEA. I will say Brynlee is one of my favorite fmcs in this series, I loved how she was with her family, Deacon, and his daughter. Their back story was cute, her having a childhood crush. Deacon came back into the picture right on time, giving her his strength to lean on during a hard time, and her stepping up to help him. You can't talk about these books without talking about this amazing, crazy, fun family. It was great seeing everyone and the new additions coming.

per my spreadsheet:

my heart was panging the whole time. brynnlee and deacon’s instant connection and chemistry had me immediately hooked. that and other healthy relationships and a break from toxicity was incredibly refreshing. it’s fun when the main conflicts are because of outside stressors instead of extremely toxic relationships.

and the spice.. spiced. 😮‍💨

we’ve got marriage of convenience, childhood crush, mmc is a hot single dad, *and* hockey? never don’t sign me up.
