A review by amelia_m3llark
The Deal by Elle Kennedy

3.25

I was surprised at how much I liked this book. I typically never go for romances, and since The Deal is in a college campus setting and the main love interest is the captain of the hockey team, my expectations were pretty low (admittedly, I was expecting Wattpad-level writing.) But it surprised me how cleverly written this book was. I think it handled some sensitive subjects really well and I was actually rooting for the couple to get, and stay, together. The way Garrett and Hannah slowly start to fall in love with each other is really cute, and their chemistry is definitely there. If you’re in the mood for a cute hockey romance with a little bit of spice that’s ALSO really well-written,  definitely give this one a try. There’s also a TON more hockey romances by Elle Kennedy that are in the same little college universe, so I think I’ll check some of those out, too!
