I really loved how the author portrayed Lainey’s struggle with anxiety. Besides that most of this book felt predictable to me. It was good and a fun read, but nothing super special.

You’re safe. Human teddy bear right here for safety cuddles.

I should tell him my own truth. But for now we’re tied: a lie for a lie.

🏒 First book in a series 
🏒 First person dual POV
🏒 Second chance romance 
🏒 Hockey player / Masters student
🏒 He hides his identity
🏒 Meet cute
🏒 Well established secondary characters; family & teammates to set up sequels 
🏒 MC Growth; trauma, grief, trust, independence from family
🏒 Anxiety representation 
🏒 Epilogue
🏒 Quick read 

🏒 pregnancy trope

⚠️ Death of a parent, grief, pregnancy, gun violence (past trauma revisited on page), panic attacks/disorders.

rakizaka's review against another edition

Their time in Alaska was cute but the whole “lie for a lie” premise didn’t seem reasonable to me.

Also wasn’t a fan of the guy.

fast-paced

3.0

The author made some … interesting choices in regards to one of the characters backstories, that ended up feeling very out of place in this book. 

I also would’ve liked it a lot better if the chapters taking place a year ago hadn’t been presented in one go but rather in between the chapters of Rook and Lainey meeting again, building the story up to the ‘reveal’ in the present time.

I definitely guessed the “twist,” or Lanie’s secret pretty early, but since it isn’t revealed til the middle of the book I won’t reveal it here. It’s not my favorite trope to read, and this book is very insta-lust, insta-love, but it was cute and a decent read. 

I didn’t like the lack of female empowerment - Lanie gets a job as a marine biology researcher at a zoo, and everyone keeps calling her a tour guide. Why do we as a society feel the need to belittle smart women? She had three master’s degrees. She’s earned the acknowledgment of her own damn job title.
