Icebound by Meredith Trapp
5.0
Okay, I don't know who Meredith Trapp thinks she is creating the IDEAL boyfriend, but I'm angry that my husband is not Rhode Tremblay.
I have to admit I was sloooow getting into this book, but once I started, I stayed up way past my bedtime, finishing this book.
I realllllly want to thank Meredith first and foremost because this book really reminded me that my love of hockey started way BEFORE I started reading romance novels. The nostalgia of former players did it for me.
But also, as someone who has spent their entire life covering/hiding their mental health, the representation nailed it for me. I love that it wasn't romanticized, I loved how it was raw and real. I love that mental health is more of an open conversation as opposed to being taboo.
I'm usually the type of reader that rates books, doesn't bother writing a review, and moves on, but this book really touched me.
