A great debut!
Thank you to Love Notes PR for this ARC!
I love a hockey romance, especially when it’s fake dating!
Nina and Rhode meet one night when he uses a rideshare app. An accident and a little white lie cause them to have to fake date for Rhode’s sponsorship. Rhode is 33, a cat daddy, and ready for marriage/babies. Nina is an art student, 22, and leaving for a pottery fellowship in a few months. They don’t think their lives align, but the attraction is off the charts.
I didn’t like how Nina’s sister treated her. I also think that the “she’s too young” thing went on too long. But overall a fun and steamy time!
Tropes:
Hockey romance
Fake dating
Age gap (11 years)
Anxiety representation
