My first foray into the infamous hockey romances. I had a lot more fun with this than I expected! It's not overly huge on sports nor on the grandeur of the rich and famous, but just enough to give it a fun flair. There aren't any big public coming outs or media fall outs, which I was caught off guard by, but came to appreciate. We don't need to agonize over coming out in every gay story. However, with the lack of what would have felt like an obvious third act conflict or anything similar, it does feel like a very abrupt ending. I was fine with it but I can see how many people would be disappointed by it. Overall, I still had a lot of fun reading this.
