Love how this book flowed. Up until the end there was something (
A fight between Case Colson and Luke Ryder
)that I was looking for to happen. Even though it never came to the the alternative was still good. For my first official Romance read ever I was very very pleased❣️

3.75

3,75 Sterne. War es gut geschrieben? Nein. (Wirklich, manches war so primitiv, dass es schon wieder lustig war) War der Plot vorhersehbar? Ja und wie. Hat es trotzdem Spaß gemacht? Irgendwie schon.
Absolutes guilty pleasure. Es war so cringe, dass es echt schon wieder lustig war. Wer ein Buch wie Icebreaker sucht ist hier genau richtig. Ehrlich gesagt besteht der Großteil des Buches einfach nur aus Sex bzw Gedanken rund um dieses Thema (fand ich auch irgendwann einfach nur noch nervig und sehr unrealistisch, selbst in wilden Collegejahren denkt doch kein Mensch so). Aber irgendwie hatte es trotzdem seinen Charme, war locker leicht und die Hauptcharaktere hatten tatsächlich mal Charakter. Zum Ende hin wurde es auch nochmal spannend und das hat das ganze für mich zu einem besseren Icebreaker gemacht. (Auch wenn es etwas abrupt geendet hat, ein zwei Sachen hätten ruhig noch passieren können)
Und wie alt bin ich bitte: habe vor 8 oder mehr Jahren The Deal gelesen und bin erstmal komplett ausgerastet, weil die Protagonistin aus The Graham Effect einfach die Tochter von den Protagonisten aus The Deal ist. Komme nicht klar 😭
Falls ihr also was locker leichtes mit viel Spice und ein klein wenig Handlung sucht, seid ihr hier genau richtig.

Gigi and Ryder

Entertaining palette cleanser. A mix of rivalry-adjacent banter, plot, sport, intimacy, emotions and 🌶️. 

I’ll happily read more from this writer’s ice hockey college romances. 

I disliked some of the writing  choices, including the uneven pacing of dialogue and of plotting. Some of the sex scenes dragged, and others didn’t stick the landing. The exhibitionism was appealing but it felt tokenistic rather than sincere. Plot wise, I was frustrated by not seeing a challenge to fairlee’s bias and handling of the team USA roster.
