There was some great chemistry between Foster and Beth right from the get go.

I totally relate to Foster and being uncomfortable talking to people. It's great to be with someone who talks so much like Beth.

When everything I read is either a big secret crush or instant dislike, it's really refreshing to read something where the main characters start out pretty neutral and normal around each other. Let that slow burn start! 

It's so sweet when he realizes he's trying to save her instead of leaving it to her to handle her own business. His apology is genuine and he takes her feelings seriously. There are so many romance novels that I complain about where the man takes care of every little things without even consulting the woman about her own life. This was very heartwarming. 

Whenever I read hockey romance I always think there's too much hockey in it. This was no exception. 

OMG. The characters in a romance actually spoke to each other like adults and communicated their feelings. That alone is worthy of 5 stars.

I don't read sexy time scenes so I can't give a spice rating. I can say it's easy to skip ahead and I don't feel like I missed anything.

I'm sorry, but no. Who doesn't listen to Christmas music while decorating thier Christmas tree?

The epilouge isn't really an epilouge, it's more of a preview of the next book.

The author gifted me an arc of this and this is my honest review. O Goalie Night will be available November 1.
