Slap Shot Surprise by Melanie Harlow
3.0

Melanie Harlow’s Slap Shot Surprise delivers a delightful mix of humor, romance, and steamy moments, making it an enjoyable read for fans of sports romance. The chemistry between the characters crackles, and the witty banter had me grinning more than once. Harlow’s knack for crafting lovable, swoon-worthy heroes shines through here.

That said, the story felt somewhat rushed at times, leaving certain emotional beats unexplored. While the lighthearted tone was fun, I found myself wanting a bit more depth in the characters’ development and their conflicts. I wish there was more groveling on Joe’s end of sorts. My opinion of him went back and forth, but I do think he could have done a better job to be there other than the monthly payments and one apology.
