First Impression
I love sports romances so I was eager to read this one fast. I feel like this trope in this book is going to be so good! Do you know when you read the first few chapters of a book and you know you are going to love it? This book did that for me.
Jamie and Pippa
Do you know when you read the first few chapters of a book and you know you are going to love it? This book did that for me. First impressions of Jamie; he takes a stray dog in, are you kidding? He knows his schedule is packed full but he takes her in regardless. It gave insight into his character already.
Jamie was such a raw character for me. He wasn’t your typical airhead hockey player. His morals and background shaped him into one of my favourite characters. Jamie’s issues with his mum felt so real and I appreciated the trigger warnings at the beginning of the book.
I adored Pippa. I could relate to her stresses and worries. I am so glad that she was able to overcome her fears of not getting up on stage or being able to write music. I was glad that she had Jamie to gently encourage her to sing and perform her own songs. On a side note, Zach was so awful! I am so happy that Pippa got the happy ending she deserved and that was her true revenge against him.
Romance/ Spice
The spice in this book was so delicious!!! I felt the romance aspect was beautifully written and felt easy to follow along. There was just enough of a slow burn before their relationship blossomed!
I really could not get enough of Pippa and Jamie, this book quickly became one of my favourites and I can’t wait to read the next book, which I gratefully received as an ARC.
