I Could Be Yours by Helena Hunting
4.0

Sweet and spicy, Helena Hunting’s latest in her Toronto Terror hockey series is such a treat! These two, Essie and Nate are more team adjacent. Essie is a professional makeup artist & Rix’s bestie, and Nate is an engineer & Tristan’s brother. While the whole crew is on vacation for Rix and Tristan’s (If You Hate Me) destination wedding, Nate and Essie realize that maybe a week-long fling is just what they need. 

“I realize that somewhere along the way this did stop being about just the sex. What would she say if I wanted more than this week?”

Essie and Nate’s romance is the perfect summer pool or beach read! Their growing trust and vulnerability with each other was such beautiful to read. And the friend/family group is always a treat, especially the Badass Babes! Though this could work as a standalone, I recommend starting with Rix and Tristan’s to be fully up to speed on the whole crew. The audiobook is also amazing - Savannah Peachwood and Teddy Hamilton are impeccable as Essie and Nate, and it’s in duet! 

I received an advanced reading copy, receipt of which did not impact my review.
