Thank you Hambright PR & the author for the review copy. 

Oh I’m a total sucker for guardianship romances - add grumpy + hockey player + marriage of convenience into the mix, and I’m not going to be able to put the book down. This was such a fun romp, with both completely silly moments and tender, caring moments navigating grief for both Carter and his nieces. The slow burn was a fast read (184 pages), and I can absolutely see myself returning to it in the future when I need a little pick-me-up rom com.
