Meh. I don't think Teagan hunters books are for me anymore. I enjoyed the second book in this series (which I started with), and also her texting series (at least the first two) but now I feel like I'm becoming more critical/ notice more things while reading. I believe her books always have an enticing premise, and it inspires interested ppl to read her book, but then around 30 to 50% her books loose that factor (the enticing, interesting factor). And I get bored.

I absolutely loved this book! Miller and Scout are the cutest. I loved learning more about Miller, who was beyond the silly jokester on the team. He was so sweet. I loved the banter between him and Scout. Him wooing her to be his friend was great. I really enjoyed seeing their relationship progress. And when he read The Princess Diaries after she told him about the movie?! Miller really shined in this book. Unlike the other books we don’t see as much interaction with the other couples and teammates. I think this gave us a chance to really see Miller in a different light. I definitely would recommend this book!

Cute, short. A bit of a reverse grumpy/sunshine - he’s the sunshine, and it was sweet.

Scout Thomas has secretly had a crush on professional hockey player Grady Miller ever since he started dropping by her donut food truck with his teammates, so it's pretty embarrassing for her when they come face-to-face at a party and he doesn't recognize her at first. Miller feels terrible and tries for weeks to apologize, but Scout's a tough nut to crack. He eventually wears her down and she accepts his apology, but rejects his overtures of friendship. Miller pledges to come back every day until Scout agrees to be his friend. The more time they spend together, the more his feelings for her grow, and he begins to wonder if she's the woman he's been waiting for all along. But will it be game over for Miller when Scout learns that the supposed serial dater is actually a virgin?
I loved the chemistry and banter between Scout and Miller as well as how hard she made him work to earn her forgiveness after he messed up with her at the party. He's reminded me a bit of a puppy ever since the beginning of the series, and his behavior towards Scout only reinforced that impression. That's not a bad thing, however; it showcased his natural sweetness and turned him into totally swoon-worthy book boyfriend material. As for Scout, I couldn't help relating with her in a lot of respects, but particularly when it came to her discomfort with her appearance. I related SO HARD when she was trying on dresses for the charity gala and thinking about how she "didn't have the arms" for strapless. That exact thought has gone through my mind more than once. Miller's efforts to help her see how beautiful she was through his eyes were so sweet and just made me love him more.
As in the previous books of this series, the secondary characters were fantastic and added a tremendous amount of depth and humor to the story. I particularly enjoyed Scout's hockey-loving niece Macie, who was adorably sassy with Miller and his teammates. The adversarial relationship between Macie's mom, Scout's older sister Stevie, and Miller's teammate Greer was also intriguing. I have a sneaking suspicion that we're going to see more of those two in the next book.
Overall, I loved this funny, sweet story and highly recommend it for all fans of contemporary/sports romance and romantic comedy. I look forward to the next book in the series.
