This book was an emotional rollercoaster! I loved Ro as the supportive best friend in Unsteady. It was nice getting to know even more about her. Since the timeline of this book is the same as the first, there are moments when I was reminded of what events are happening with Sadie at the same time. Boy, did these roommates go through a lot in a short amount of time. Even being connected as they are, one could read them each as separate standalones.
Ro’s journey to rediscover her self-confidence was tough. I was screaming at her to stand up! Especially in those first few scenes with Tyler. She was so thoroughly manipulated, ugh. Tyler, you’re lucky you’re a fictional character.
Ro and Freddy were the perfect meshing of complicated people. Freddy was supportive and not afraid to remind Ro that she’s enough as is. Ro was the advocate Freddy never expected. I can’t put into words how much I loved them together. They were so perfectly matched. The chemistry and care were off the charts!
This book dealt with many difficult topics like grief, manipulation in relationships, and abuse of power imbalance. Be sure to check your triggers before reading. I recommend this book to readers who enjoy romance books with emotional journeys.

I lowkey hated this book. Maybe hate is too strong but it was so boring and way too long. I got so impatient at the end and just skimmed. I liked it for the first few chapters but idk Tyler in this book PISSED ME OFF. Wow he made me mad. I liked Freddy. It kinda of annoys me that Sadie and Ro’s friendship wasn’t mentioned a lot. Just because you get a boyfriend doesn’t mean you stop being friends and they didn’t but she was barely mentioned and that made me annoyed. The relationship with the teacher was not needed and idk there were just a lot of things I did not like about this book.
thank you so much to netgalley and peyton corinne for this arc!
Unloved is EASILY one of my top 5 romance books of all time, and by far my favorite hockey romance. The way the romance between Ro and Freddy was woven so beautifully within the themes of grief, self confidence, and friendship was so beautiful and captivating. I absolutely adore the way Ro and Freddy learn how to be there for each other, and they are the perfect example of an incredible friendship turned relationship. The pacing was perfect, and the conflicts sprinkled in built the story so perfectly - i was giggling and kicking my feet the entire time.
I will without a doubt be recommending this book to everyone I know, and I'm so so excited for the world to get to see this book!
