Once again, Rachel Reid writes an amazing gay hockey book that makes me cry. I really loved this book, especially the MCs. Landon and Casey were both complex characters who had their own unique flaws that I fell in love with. 

I thought the ending was a bit rushed, but it did make sense for the story. Also! A unique MLM romance because there were great discussions of physical boundaries and sexual desire!

Loved this sweet hockey romance. A little less spicy than the Game Changers series but still swoony!  Landon seems to maybe be demi (it’s never labelled) which is nice to see represented in a romance like this. It’s also nice to see a character presented as really good at their sport but not a typical manly dudebro jock. Also Eastern Passage represent! Love the idea of an NHL player jogging around my neighbourhood.
