Teagan hunter has yet to miss for me. She has put me into my hockey romance era, she has a good balance of spice and plot, her characters are loveable and her writing gets me in my feels every damn time, I also like how she sets up the characters for their next book, they don't just come out of nowhere, we see their personality develop in previous books, like I cannot wait for Millers book because Hunter has set him up so well in the previous ones and then we had more of Greer in this one too so that is planting the seeds for his book.
OK less on the series, now the book, this is my favourite in the series so far and I love all of them but this one had that yearning from Smith for Emilia, that high stakes sneaking around (more on that later), I loved their moments in their bubble and I think thats what made this my favourite, they found a place to be them without outside pressures and it felt like it was just them in the world in those moments.
I do wish it felt more forbidden, they didn't feel like they were sneaking around because Emilia was the coachs niece or for her job, that aspect kinda felt like it was an afterthought unless they said it, it didn't feel dangerous enough and I think that's in part due to us not seeing how strong Emilia and coach Martins relationship was, we know they are important to eachother but we don't see that bond, in fact he shows up like 3 times in 300 pages
