emotional tense medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

there is a shocking lack of romance in this romance book; i would honestly class this as more on the erotica side. very little romantic tension and almost no plot in that regard. not to mention the use of the pet name "bub" which icks me out on an unbelievable level. this book was also very obviously written by someone who was not american and had a very minimal understanding of US college athlete or frat culture so it often left me a bit... "disorientated" when things didn't add up and kinda ruined the immersion. the figure skating stuff was also pretty rough but i expected that. wouldn't recommend for romance readers, anyone who went to college in the US, or figure skaters.
