This book follow Garrett and Hannah. It’s a great introduction to college hockey romance. I read this in one sitting. It’s spicy and has you loving the main characters from start to finish. Favourite trope in this book: fake dating.
Tess and Ryan are the sweetest couple. Pucking Wild follows Tess who is going through a messy divorce and young NHL player Ryan, affectionately referred to as 'Puppy'. This is a reverse age-gap, spicy hockey romance that follows on perfectly from Pucking Around. We also get to know Ilmari much more in this book. I read this in one day because I simply could not put it down!
Bad Wrong Things is a great MM, forbidden, age gap romance.
4.5/5 spice
It follow Raven who falls for his best-friend's Dad - Clint.
To make it more forbidden, Clint was Raven's guardian when he was a child.
This is a high angst romance with a plethora of trigger warnings.
Dark themes are dealt with really well but not lightly, it explores the impact of substance abuse on family dynamics.
Will Raven and Clint's secret tear their family apart? Read and find out.
There is pining and angst to the max so prepare yourself.
Tropes include:
- best-friends dad
- dub con
- forbidden
- age gap

Do you want to cry yourself to sleep thinking about this book weeks later? If you answered yes, then this book is for you. It breaks your heart into pieces but it is so worth it.
Rune and Poppy are true soulmates and their journey makes this story so beautiful. Be prepared to face grief and loss head on in this book.
I frequently read emotional books but this was truly in its own league. I’ll never forget Rune and Poppy’s love.
It’s a YA so there is no spice, but you won’t miss it.

This book had big Gossip Girl vibes but make it gay, watching the rich splash their money around and get away with anything.
A low-angst steamy MM romance that takes a deep dive into the world of the Park Avenue Princes, the most elite, rich young men of New York. JT is starting at a new university but it’s hard to fit in when you are the Dean’s son. The only rule his mother gave him - stay away from the Park Avenue Princes, renowned troublemakers. Not a problem, especially since JT is straight… or so he thought (YASSS! I love a bi-awakening).
Ella Frank and Brooke Blaine have written a perfect start to the series. I can’t wait to get to know the other Park Avenue Princes soon!
I absolutely adored how sweet West became throughout the book. His character development was spot on. The way that he opened himself up make him such a likeable character despite having many unlikeable traits like his selfishness and lack of awareness. The extent of his thoughtfulness and love in his actions was swoon-worthy.
East was a pretty unlikable character overall but I am looking forward to his redemption in future books.
I loved the way the sexual tension was never rushed. It was written so well and you really felt the passion and intensity building between JT and West over time. The spice was there but not overwhelming.
As always a really good HEA but sadly no epilogue, I guess I’ll have to stick around for future books.
I received this as an ARC and have left my honest review.
