I don’t think I’ve ever read a book where as I’ve gotten to know the characters more, they’ve had less personality. But here we areee. In book 1, Freddy was so funny and charismatic. In book 1, Ro was such a strong & great friend. In this book? They regressed. He became every other overprotective frat bro and she became an innocent baby. Bizarre. I was going to power through, but when Freddy was thinking about how good he was at s*x and literally thought about how his d*ck was “perfect”?! I was out. Do irl men think of themselves this way? & do we like them if they do? Ick for me.

Thank you to Peyton Corinne, Atria Books, and NetGalley for this ARC! I was over the moon to be able to read this story early because Unsteady was one of my favorite reads of 2024! It was so deeply emotional, angsty, and romantic all at once. I adored it and I couldn’t believe it was a debut novel. Needless to say, I was totally buckled in to see what Peyton Corinne would release next. Let me tell you that Unloved did not disappoint!
This series is starting to remind me of the Maple Hills Series in that it’s one of my favorite found families that I have read! Something about a college hockey team is just gonna get me, I fear. They just genuinely care for each other in a deeper way than just teammates. I love to see characters who didn’t have a good support system finally find their people!
The characters were some of the best I have read, genuinely. Ro was such a softy who just needed someone to let her be her true self! Freddy needed someone to show him that he IS loveable in an emotional way. They both were hiding under facades and found themselves in each other. They were so tender hearted and soft!!!!!! I melted for them. We all deserve someone who makes us feel EASY TO LOVE!
There were so amazing scenes in this one that I won’t spoil for you, but just know, that the romance book girlies will swoon. Everyone say thank you to Peyton Corinne because she really fed us with this one.

Absolutely adored Freddy and Ro! Cannot wait for Bennetts book to come out now
Cute follow up to the first book; love love that the timelines occur at the same time, exciting me for the next one. A too many flashbacks for me. Lead couple was cute; FMC self-aware enough that she knows she has no spine, MMC self-aware enough to know when he's having a bit of a freakout moment but can't stop it. Also personally a sucker for the "show them their worth" trope which this entire series (so far) hinges on.
