trudyd's review against another edition
5.0
If this was the last book in the series, it would have ended in with me in nirvana. (This isn't the last though, right?? Please, please be writing more Toni Aleo.) This story was so beautiful, so romantic, such a story of strength, of redefining one's life.
I usually ugly cry during sad moments. End Game had me crying during beautiful statements of love a devotion. The author was able to put into to words what I have wanted to feel but never expressed so beautifully.
Ryan Justice has become an amazing young man. The little boy we have watched grow with the Assassin Series has taken the best from all the stories and become my new favorite. The way he treats Sofia is beyond words. He has done his dad proud. The author has developed an amazing character that I hope we will see again in future books.

End Game is a perfect ten in gymnastics or a hat trick in hockey. Either way, everyone is happy.
This coming of age story is perfect for the hopeless romantic s out there. Bonus if you like hockey and/or gymnastics. There are some incredibly inspirational speeches in End Game that make it hard not to tear up. But the ones about true, unconditional love slayed me. They left me bleeding on the ice.
End Game is only the beginning for these kids. I'm excited to see what the rest of the family gets up to!

**I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review**
Ryan Justice is no longer the cute little boy we met way back in Taking Shots. Oh no! He is now a good lookin hunky hockey player! As a senior, Ryan is struggling with what comes next. Will he get into the NHL and follow in his uncles footsteps? The last thing he expected to find was Sofia. Sofia is a girl with a plan, a woman on a mission to be the best and achieve her goals. With no distractions...that is until Ryan.
This book will make you have some serious feels! I laughed out loud (& received funny looks from the fiancé) and had some tears too (also receiving weird looks.) But all the feels were worth it by the end! Toni Aleo has given us new characters to fall in love with for the first time, and let’s us revisit some old ones that we love and cherish. I can’t wait to see what she does next!

Perfect young love!
Ryan has been dreaming of going to the NHL - like his uncle Shea, but when gymnast Sofia tumbles into his life, with big dreams of her own, will their drive be a match made in heaven? Or set them on a separate course?
A total winner by the hockey queen!

I really really enjoyed another installment of to the Bellvue Bullies series. Ryan and Sofia i loved them almost immediately after i started reading. Ryan reminded me so much of his Uncle Shea and with the persistence of the Sinclair brothers with Sofia. This book had me ABSOLUTELY loving and missing these new and old characters mentioned. Sofia and her mom were so likeable and gahh her mom was such a sweetheart! You're going to laugh and love the banter between these two. There are so many thing i want to talk about but won't because i want you to enjoy them yourself when you read this beauty. I have to say this was a great addition to the series. ❤❤

I think this is the best book Aleo has written! Ryan and Sofia are by far my fave couple.

Another fab one from my fav Toni Aleo. Ryan and Sofie are my fav Bullies couple so far.
Ryan Justice is in his final year of college - he's studying athletic training and playing college hockey for the Bellevue Bullies. If you’ve read Toni’s other books, youll remember him from Taking Shots. As former one, I enjoy that he is truly a STUDENT athlete.
Sophia is his sisters roommate and star gymnast for Bellevue. Sofia is what every gymnast parent and coach craves, hyper focused on competitions and school, but Ryan is taken with her and works his way into her heart.
This is such a fabulous book in the series and we get to see some of our fav characters make a cameo.

Gah! I can't believe little Ryan is all grown up, playing hockey and having sex! I really enjoyed this story and can't wait to see what comes next with the next generation of Assassin kids.

Y’all, I say this every time Toni releases a new book but she has DONE IT AGAIN! I feel like I’m cheating on my other Assassin and Bully book boyfriends when I say that I think I might love Ryan Justice the most.
We first met Ryan in the very first Assassins novel and he has grown up beautifully! For those who base the books they read off the cover, let me just say that this cover is a perfect description in my eyes of Sofia and Ryan. I loved how awkward their relationship was because to me it fit them perfectly. Toni did such a phenomenal job with the two main characters in how she makes them their own person. Both Sofia and Ryan are very determined in their respective sports and both have big dreams and they don’t want to let anyone stand in their way of achieving those dreams. There were times I cried in this book, times I was laughing and of course times of just pure joy and happiness. DON’T PASS THIS BOOK UP! I can’t wait to see what Toni has in store for us in the future!
