A review by netslummer
Contract Season by Cait Nary

3.0

When I read Season's Change, Cait Nary's first novel in this series, I was completely enamored with Olly and Benji. I was a little disappointed when the sequel was not going to be a continuation of their story but that's normally how it goes with a romance series. I was excited to get a chance to read this book regardless because the first was very hockey heavy which, as a fan of hockey in general, really drew me in. Hockey romances are my absolute favorites in addition to the sport being the only one I care about.

Contract Season follows defenseman Brody Kellerman and country singer Seamus Murry as they hook up, fake date and fall in love. The boys together are pretty cute. My main gripe with this book was the main source of conflict is their lack of communication. That is something that I absolutely hate reading in a romance. If one emotionally mature adult managed to have a single conversation, the entire conflict would've resolved ten pages in.

I fully believe that this book has a wide audience. When it is cute, it is really cute. Its low on spice (which I like) but there is still some spice for the fans of that. I think many people will love this book as much as I loved the first one. I just feel like I was not the correct target for this second entry in the series.

Thank you to NetGalley and Carina Press for providing me with an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.
