The Graham Effect by Elle Kennedy was a spicy hockey romance that I couldn’t help but devour. It’s no secret that I love hockey romances, and I loved that this one had lots of complex characters. These characters felt fully flushed out, and their interactions felt genuine throughout the book. I thought the plot was interesting beyond the romance elements as well, and worked to complicate the character dynamics. The one turn off I had for this book was the way it ended. I was shocked, because it felt out of place, and then the characters had to try to explain it away as if it was justified, when it really didn’t feel like it was. Overall, I did really enjoy this book, but I just felt like the way it ended was out of nowhere, not because I wasn’t rooting for it, but I was just sad everything about it happened off page. In any case, this book is definitely worth hearing read, even if I don’t particularly agree with the events that happen to end the book. I’m looking forward to hopefully reading some more in this series soon!
