I had a blast and it’s been a great distraction from all the stress in my life at the moment. I will say I didn’t love the misogyny but it did get a little better as the book went on, and it wasn’t sooo horrible that I couldn’t overlook it. 100% feels like ICEBREAKER copied it but also they’re different enough to not be a total rip off, and I was equally as obsessed. For someone who has never watched a hockey game in her life nor can name a single player, I do love hockey romance books! The chase and falling for each other was absolutely my favorite part; everything after that was good but not as fun.
