A review by gloriaworlikar
The Head Game by Brigham Vaughn
5.0
I was looking forward to reading this book from the moment it was announced and damn the author didn't disappoint me, this book was so much more than I expected but I should have known because I was hooked on this series from the first book itself and if you have read The Husband Game you would know the author has mentioned some tough topics in there so this book also had some tough subjects which were covered and loved how thorough Brigham has done her research on that particular subject.
Nicolaas Arents ( Nico ) is the defenseman for the Toronto Fisher Cats and we met him in the last book as someone who is ridiculously confident and has a charm that gets him what he wants or who he wants whereas Augustus Manning ( August ) is a referee for the NHL and is annoyed by Nico's flirting or snarky behaviour on the ice. But one night after a game when August is in a very bad state of mind he hooks up with Nico, just once he says but you know Nico is kind of stubborn like that but they end up in a JockGossip article though August face is not visible you could see Nico.
Things that happened afterwards I wasn't expecting, Nico had a medical emergency and it is something happened on ice which led him to the hospital, August was also on the ice when Nico had a fall, so he is worried about him so to be allowed to meet with Nico and get updates on his condition he tells the hospital staff that he is Nico's fiance. I liked how caring and protective August was once he got to see the real Nico and I was so happy Nico had August by his side when he was recovering. Once, Nico realised the truth about their engagement, he was so invested in being a fake fiance, I liked how he tried to make August squirm from being too touchy, also their banter was so amazing I liked it so much.
I loved Charlie and Nico's interactions and was glad he was there to tell him his experience so Nico would not rush his recovery. I loved his teammates and how protective they were of him. Skylar and Julius were other amazing characters and I was so happy for them.
This book was an amazing read with all the snarky banter and so many beautiful moments between the characters and how supportive they were of each other I enjoyed it so much. I am looking forward to more books from this series and I am excited about Felix and Jonah because of the little glimpse we got to see, I am looking forward to reading their story.
