“The Deal” 🎶 This book is the goat! The best, original hockey romance that will make you fall in love with the MMC plus the college hockey romance trope, fake dating trope, jock x tutor trope, trauma healing and so much more. Elle Kennedy gave us the perfect book boyfriend in Garrett Graham and the rest of the Briar universe does not disappoint at all! Read trigger warnings as both the main characters had suffered abuse and trauma in their childhood and teens. This is the first book in the Off Campus series (which is set to become a TV show), the next series is Briar U that continues side characters stories, and the current series is Campus Diaries which starts the next generation (the daughter of the main characters from The Deal). My only dislike of the audiobook is the female narrator, she sounds so much older than Wellsy should be.
