I really liked this book. Since this was my first Liz Tomforde book I went in with high expectations because of all the hype this series got. I have little to no notes. This was a great romance with impeccable character development between Stevie and Zander. Stevie overcoming her insecurities with her appearance and Zander overcoming his insecurities that stem from childhood trauma were really the highlights of this book for me. Also, really good banter. The “are you following me” shtick between Stevie and Zander never got old. If anything it got cuter and more endearing. I also liked the side characters and am not opposed to reading their books.

I have no issues with it beside the smut mostly being in Zanders POV, and also the hockey players constantly being referred to by last name. Whenever Zander/Zee was actually getting called Evan I was confused because at some point I really thought his last name was his first name because of how often it was used.

I can see why this a book was so hyped! I liked the length of it, too many romance and like little snapshots into characters lives but Mile High is a more realistic look into a persons life. I found it to be a little cheesy in parts but isn’t that what makes romance so cutesy?

I really liked this book, it's the first romance book that I read where the MC isn't skinny, so that's a big plus. Sometimes a few quotes and moments became repetitive, but all in all really liked it.

This was a decent book but it could've been like 150 pages shorter. It moved SO slowly.

🌶️ 3/5 multiple explicit scenes but the spice just wasn't spicing for me

🏳️‍🌈✊ Both characters are Black/mixed, I think? FMC is biracial (Black and white); I was a little unclear on MMC's parents' races, but he is Black. FMC is fat and she deals with fatphobia, both personally and societally. Props for the mental health & pro-therapy story lines; we love a king who's been in therapy for a decade lol

It's okay, but I felt some parts were too stretched out.
I love the character development, the sexual buildup, the banters, and the 'you following me' parts.
Hopping in Right Move right away.
