Liked Hunter, but didn't find Demi convincing as a character. Nothing about her made sense, especially her relationship with her parents.

I HATED how Demi and that guy pretended to be hooking up to make Hunter jealous, prompting him to break his vow of celibacy. And for what? So she could get her rebound??? … the fuck??? You couldn’t wait a few months until the end of the season?
It also doesn’t seem in character for everyone to judge his decision to be celibate. The least judgmental person was Garrett and that was a brief mention.
Also, the thing where Demi went behind his back to “surprise” him with the intro to the agent. She takes first prize for least likable main character in the Briar world. Quickly followed by Fitz (don’t get me started).
This whole series is supremely subpar compared to the Off-Campus series and Campus Diaries series. So far Brenna and Jake are carrying the whole thing. I’ll listen to the fourth book, but only bc I already used my last audible credit on it before realizing what a shit show this series is.

&&& the shocker in the epilogue!!! Omg! I can’t say I didn’t see that coming, but I’m still amazed it actually happened!! lol
I’m convinced at this point that anything Elle Kennedy writes will be a 5 star read for me, especially if it’s a hockey romance!! lol
