A fun take on the popular jock/ shy girl trope. Graham is a hockey star but needs to keep his grades up to stay eligible to play. Hannah is a quiet music major who happens to ace the midterm Graham just failed. She won’t tutor Graham until he makes a deal she can’t refuse: in exchange for her tutoring services, he’ll go on a fake date with her to increase her status on campus and catch the eye of the guy she’s crushing on. Only the fake date causes real feelings.

one of the worst books i've ever read. i can't believe this is so popular. not only is this filled with stereotypes, deeply mysoginistic (and at times homophobic), and extremely triggering (tw : rape, abuse) and harmful, it also very badly written. save yourself the torture and avoid this book at all cost.

Nice quick read if you like:
✅️ hockey romance
✅️ good banter, though, over the top at times
✅️dual pov
✅️ couple chemistry
✅️ resiliency in characters due to past trauma

Sweet story, but the dialogue often made me cringe. Not especially well written, but I like the representation of someone who has been assaulted trying to make progress with intimacy
