This was a ride. Ishir is in love with his childhood best friend and fellow NHL player Zee. When Zee is traded to Ishir's team, it's their year-long dream coming true. Except now Ishir has to live with the man he is in love with. And accept Zee's very territorial behaviour even though they're just friends. Everything is going to be just fine.

When Ishir's weird superstitions lead to very ambiguous lines being crossed with Zee, where his best friend picks Alphas for him to celebrate his goals with, Ishir is not sure how comfortable he is with pushing the line this far. And then it gets more and more intimate and Ishir has to decide between putting his heart on the line or backing off.

Zee is so damn whipped for Ishir. But Zee is straight (as in, he likes Omegas), right? Well maybe Zee is Ishir-sexual, actually.

This was so strange of a read, their relationship was def fucked up but it was a fun read, my least favourite so far though, probably. It felt like I was on crack sometimes when I was reading this, but again? Soft! the boys care so much for each other! In this one, Zee was probs the closest to the growling alpha cliché, but he is not an asshole in general he just has Issues, but he is a fun character and a good sunshine foil to Ishir's more introverted nature.

Can't wait for next book for some more angry tension (fingers crossed!)
