coconun 's review for:
Icebreaker
by Hannah Grace
3 ⭐️ (📚)
I finished this within 24 hours. It was quite good. BUT GOD some bits annoyed me
Nate and Anastasia are such a cute couple. Nate is a sweetheart and has all the right intentions and all the characters were amazing (apart from a certain someone who we all know)
I have endless love for Henry and I am excited to see Russ’ story pan out next (at least I think it’s the same russ)
ALTHOUGH… I do have problems with just how many characters were introduced. My brain had a hard time keeping up AND… I did feel like Anastasia went from ooo no thank you I don’t like commitment to hi Nate very fast
Nate also fell hard. Very hard. A little too hard? There was little to no buildup in actual relationship other than sexual which is a pet peeve of mine - it got better but not massively so
The ending was abrupt and also - what happened to Nate’s game as soon as he rushed off to Anastasia’s competition - adding the Aaron kiss felt unnecessary as he’s never really had any romantic jealousy over Anastasia - but the ending was definitely rushed.
Some people are saying this was too long but it wasn’t too bad, worth a read if you like hockey romances!
BUT what I did hate was the pregnancy at the end. Both young promising athletes getting pregnant?! Especially when Anastasia is a figure skater and has has multiple examples from skater friends not to get pregnant, especially if she wants a career out of it - you can’t expect me to believe that she was so invested in her skating career she endured the abuse of her skating partner and the pressure of everything just to have one olympics. Like really?
Also not every HEA has to end in a baby! Not all relationships have babies and it frustrates me to no end.
Would however. LOVE. For a Henry and Gen story.
This was worth the £3 I spent on the kindle edition but reading all the other reviews has got me feeling like liking this is a crime lol - what can I say, a caring hockey Male MC and I’m all for it I guess 🫢🫢
TLDR; first part of book was great, ending and epilogue was messy and didn’t fit the vibe but that was literally the last 30%
