Consider Me by Becka Mack

This was a 3.5 ⭐

This was my first Becka Mack book and I finally caved after being told monthly by @samsdarkreads that I HAD to read this book.

This book started strong and I was loving the “golden retriever” vibe of Carter, the MMC. Which is NOT a me thing haha. I loved the banter, silly moments, and watching the relationship between the MCs grow.

Unfortunately, I found this book was WAY longer than it needed to be. I kind of got bored with the story because while the relationship building was amazing there wasn't much else happening.

I'm excited to give the next book a try because I did enjoy the other characters!

Troupes: hockey romance, he falls first, reformed playboy to obsessive committed man
Spice 4/5
Plot 4/5
Pace 3/5
Character Personality 4/5
Character Growth 4/5
Writing Style 4/5
World Building 5/5

Overall, a good read that I enjoyed! Just a little too long and didn’t really stick out to me.

Star Rating:⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫 Steam Rating:🌶️🌶️🌶️

Why didn’t I read this sooner!! I will admit the size of this book intimidated me but those pages were 100% necessary!

I didn’t expect to love Carter as much as I did but that man was hard to resist! A cocky, arrogant playboy, with a heart of gold, who has his world turned upside down when he meets the love of his life, and she turns him down! Love it!

Olivia is carters opposite in so many ways. She’s short to his tall, shy and introverted to his outgoing, confident demeanor but I think that’s what really made them such a great match. I loved ghat she made him work for it, knowing exactly who he is and his reputation. 

I really enjoyed their journey to happiness, that it was hard fought for. They both had to constantly work together to overcome their fears. It made their story more meaningful and you were rooting for them whole time! Carter really stepped up to plate and was the perfect boyfriend, he was so obsessed with Olivia, it was adorable to watch. 

Carter and his teammates were a hoot! I was not expecting this book to be so funny but they’re such an endearing bunch, I love them all and I can’t wait for their stories!

If you’re looking for a hockey romance that not only hits you in your feels but will have you laughing out loud and rooting so hard for Carter and Olivia to get their happy ever after, then you need to read this book!

Took me forever to get through. Loved parts of it, but man it dragged on and on.

This book will live rent free in my head for probably one of my favourite sports romances.
