I usually love the Hockey Gods books, but this one just missed the mark for me. They had zero chemistry the way I read it. Melody lost her memory and Jacob was just mean. Plus the outright SA bothered me and I'm usually ok with it, as long as it's not between MCs. She was against him most of the book then at the end she was somehow in love with him. It just didn't flow well for me at all. I'm going to read Knox's book because I really do love the author. Sad this one just wasn't it for me.

I was SO EXCITED for Jacob’s story after reading the prequel novella (available if you sign up for author’s mailing list and highly recommended so you get the background for their relationship) and I was not disappointed! Be prepared for a DARK romance with CNC/dub-con. He is full of red flags but I can’t help but love him anyway. Melody was such a tragically beautiful FMC. This was by far my favorite of the series, so far.
