Okay. I loved this book. It was sooooo long. But so worth it. The characters are amazing. The three boys are so cute. With the golden retriever energy, black cat energy, and ….. sea turtle? energy lol.

I read That One Night which is the prequel, and I immediately downloaded Pucking Around. I’m not really sure what happened between the prequel and the actual book, because they are not at all the same. I was NOT expecting this, in the tiniest bit. 

 

The Characters: 

 

⊹ Jake Compton [Angel] 

Golden Retriever, Defensemen, very sensitive, and loves Ice Cream, Sushi, and Pelicans! 

 

⊹ Rachel Price [Seattle Girl, Rakas, Hurricane] 

A literal Goddess. Rock-Star’s daughter, the wild child turned Sports Medicine Doctor. She had a colored past, and I love that even as a medical professional, she still did everything she could to be her authentic self. 

 

⊹ Ilmari Kinnunen [Mars] 

Quiet, strong, Finnish Viking Goalie - he is literally my favorite. Never once did he waiver in what he believed in or wanted. He was the strongest and least 

 

⊹ Caleb Sanford [Cay, Devil] 

Grumpy, Tatted, Daddy Dom with Piercings (!!!) - he is very closed off, hard to like really, but in the moments that he does let his wall down, he’s a dream! 

 

What I liked: 
 ♥︎  Bi Representation (MM) 

♥︎ The SPICE!! WOW! 

♥︎ The individual and group relationship development 

♥︎ Ilmari Kinnunen ♥︎ ♥︎ ♥︎ ♥︎ 

♥︎ How it ended 

 

What I didn’t like: 

 

♡ This book was so long. There were so many repeated details that could have shortened this book by at least 200 pages. 

 

♡ Everything was so OTT - who has full-blown emotional breakdown conversations mid-sexy time, just about every single time? 

 

♡ Why does there need to be so many pages filled with “You’re mine, I’m yours” - like we get it … 

 

♡ Breeding Kink - totally not my thing (not shaming anyone who is into this)
