This was such a good book. It was more than just a hockey romance. It really had good life lessons weaved within. Super well writren & so swoony!!
Rhode is such a great guy! He is learning from his younger mistakes & working on being a better version of himself every day. I liked that this man was as kind as much as he was confident. He wasn't portrayed as a cocky jock or grumpy or even as a playboy. He was honestly just a normal person with a high profile job. It was a different take on the hockey God MMC.
Nina was such a breath of fresh air. The fact that she suffered from anxiety wasn't used as a crutch or a personality trait. It wasn't used as an excuse for poor behavior. She knew about it and tried to avoid triggering situations at all costs. She tried to avoid confrontation when she was in the middle of an episode to avoid hurting people. Her personality is so pure. I absolutely adored this character.
The way that these two complimented each other was insane. It was such a positive dynamic. The way that Nina was the protector over Rhode, I swooned over HER every time. She's my first Book GF, that's for damn sure.
I loved this book.
It's been on my shelf for a while, and I don't know why I put off reading it, but I'm so glad I finally got to it. Amazing Story
