"It takes dedication on top of the love. It takes a willingness to fight to stay together."

Check the trigger warnings. ALL OF IT.

When I stumbled upon a Facebook reel on her journey to dark romance, she recommended this. Because it’s hockey and stalker combined. I loved hockey romances and Haunting Adeline so why not try this one out as well? So I did. It’s meh and I’m definitely not continuing the series. I'm out here trying dark romance here and there but for this one, it's just not for me. I'm just not buying how the person who wrecked your legs and continue to bully you can be the love of your life. Okay maybe bully romance is just not for me then. Or maybe I'm just not that believed to really reason out how the FMC fell in love unlike Adeline where you can really see she's into that (however wrong that sounds). Add on to the story plot about his and her family AND a stalker? The ending and revelation as well was pretty lacking, in my opinion.

Note: I read this in my phone and it’s in percentage basis (the page number does not reflect the book’s page number) so I definitely did not expect that to be a 600 pages story.
