Gostei bastante do livro. Simon me surpreendeu por falar sobre depressão e saúde mental. Também gostei do fato de ele não ficar "ai ela é irmã do meu melhor amigo, não posso ficar com ela". Sobre a Stella, amei ela e o jeito que ela representa relacionamento com irmão mais velho kkkk me senti representada, amor e ódio. Mas uma coisa que me deixou meio assim for o Simon se desculpando pra Stella toda vez que tomava cerveja sendo que ela não tinha problemas sérios com isso; entendo que ele se achava culpado por beber na frente dela, mas ela sempre falava que tudo bem. E algo que senti que faltou foi a reação do Sterling quando o Stella e o Simon falaram que tavam juntos, queria ter visto isso kkkkkk

Thank you Cali for sending me an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Simon and Stella had this instant attraction that they danced around because she was in a relationship and he was her brother’s best friend. They would laugh and flirt but always kept things on a friend level. Stella has lived in the shadows of her brother for a long time and she dealt with her emotions by partying and living it up, but when her world is flipped upside down by the betrayal of her ex she knows she needs to reinvent herself. Heading back home to take time to find herself but when the tension is unbearable SImon and Stella find themselves finding it hard to deny the feelings. Simon is this amazing character that is kind, caring, and always shows Stella how amazing she is that it made it easy to fall in love with this guy. The bond these two share started as a connection that led to a friendship of sorts that became more while they helped each other.

This was by far my favorite Wyncote Wolves book yet! I loved Stella and Simon!

Stella is such a spitfire and I love that about her. I really liked that she was on a journey of self discovery and reflection, I felt like her story was something a lot of people can relate too and I think that’s one of the reasons I enjoyed her character so much.
Simon was a so done for when it came to Stella, but it wasn’t overdone and over the top in the writing which was great.

I loved their banter and the heart to hearts they had, they had such good communication for majority of the book which made it so much easier to fall in love with this couple.
The spice was well written and like most of the book very relatable. Some books the spice scenes can seem so over the top and fake, but not in Coast to Coast. When I read this story it felt like I was reading someone’s real life not something totally made up.
4/5⭐️
2/5

I am a huge hockey romance fan and I’m loving this series. Simon and Stella’s story was so much fun. I loved the forbidden aspect of brother’s best friend. Throw in some forced proximity and these two coming to terms with their feelings and I was hooked!

What to expect:

Okay… Simon and Stella were just average?? I feel like I’ve enjoyed other Wyncote couples more.. now that being said the STEAM between these two was a whole other story… Equally as important as the spice rating IMO was seeing Simon grow (especially as he and Stella gave in and grew closer to one another). We love a man who leans into character growth!!

Also somehow I skipped over #6 and #7 and went right to #8 in this series?? Whoops. Still a solid choice, but I’ve read better by Cali.

Simon might have stolen top spot for my favorite Wyncote Wolf. He’s open, in touch with his emotions, and not afraid to tell Stella how he feels. He also has this beautiful capacity for meeting Stella where she is in that moment, which for her in her journey feels huge to me. Stella is her own work in progress— the progress on which most of her friends and family are completely overlooking, but not Simon. He sees how hard she’s working and he’s encouraging, supportive, and proud.

I loved the newest addition to the Wyncote Wolves series. Stella and Simon will steal your heart too. I recommend picking this one up today and celebrating release day March 31st with me!

Cali sent me this as an ARC and I was so excited. I read about Stella in splintered and I swear I got tension from Simon and Stella. I was so happy we got to explore all the tension I felt. I really enjoy every book but I think this one might have taken my top spot. Simon was such a golden retriever that I needed more of that cinnamon roll. When he asked if she was tried of carrying all the weight it was so sweet. I loved this book so freaking much! I can’t wait for the next book!
