3.5⭐️ I really really tried my best to psych myself up for this despite it being a MFM romance.. I thought Elle Kennedy would change my mind but alas, it did not.

Take out the romance I would have loved this.

- I loved Charlie's adoption story. I love books with this. AND SHE'S A STEM GIRLIE! I need more STEM girlies.  I felt so bad for her bio brother. And feeling a sense that she had to constantly achieve something to make her feel worth it when they adopted her 

- Gigi just absolutely loving and supporting her hubby Ryder 🥰

- I need Blake Logan and Isaac Grant ! I need more of their story, I need to know what happened after that party ! He was so smitten 🤭 and the fact t that their story would be based around football and not hockey would be so interesting!

- Beckett's backstory is so sad, it gives him a lot of substance.

- Will's dirty talk 🥵

- the romance...what people do in their time is their business, but in books it's messy and always complicated

- the spicy scenes 👀 as sexy as they were, it was too much movement  going on 😅

- I feel like there was a lot of back and fourth in what they all really wanted. 


Thank you to Netgalley, Little Brown Books and Kennedy for this arc in exchange for an honest review.
