God do I love me a great hockey romance mixed in with real life mental health issues. 

Book one is all about PTSD, anxiety, and depression. This book is all about grief, anxiety, imposter syndrome, narcissism, emotional abuse, slut shaming, and academic disabilities. These things are all expertly written, and my heart is full of empathy for Ro & Matt. To watch them grow into themselves and into each other was beautiful and inspiring. I love their found family, & will keep reading this series as long as she keeps writing 🤭

Plot? 10/10
Spice? Well done, 10/10
Vibes? Immaculate

It is so refreshing to have an ACTUAL HEA that doesn’t require miscommunication and other typically negative tropes. Don’t get me wrong, sometimes those are great, but HBY writes fights and things more realistically, which endears me more & more to her writing. 

Love Sarah & Caleb’s progression & seeing them do the work to get them back to people they recognize and appreciate each other even more ❤️❤️❤️
