Okay, I don’t usually say this but I was forcing myself to finish this book. And it sucks, because usually this type of book is my all time favourite to read. But something about this one had me pulling teeth to continue it - so much that I stopped halfway to read The Mistake for a reminder as to why I love reading.

I felt like I was reading a Wattpad story, and don’t get me wrong, some were amazing! (Yes, I read After but have you read the Mogul???) I thought it was going to be a quick read, the beginning was cute but then it literally just… dwindled on and on in a way that wasn’t fun to be part of.

I also just didn’t like the fact that two young college kids were having unprotected sex and faced no consequences of it. Like wrap it up buddy boy, you’re a college hockey player you can’t afford a child.

Anyways, it was like a fun read if you’re trying to get into reading I guess, but after reading some other books in the hockey romance genre, this one just didn’t live up to the hype. I even think I found it on Tik Tok, and I hate to say it but it was the first BookTok recommendations that I regretted following through on.
