Unsteady is gorgeous, a book filled with characters with such depth and such heart that I can’t help but feel warm and fuzzy as I read about them. Sadie and Rhys are two broken humans, who come together to find healing and love and trust. Family is a huge part of this tale, and they create it together beautifully.

There are lots of little plot points that I’m hoping will be explored further in later books, as I have a lot of unanswered questions about these characters, particularly Bennett, Coach Kelley, Ro and Toren.  Can’t wait to see how their stories (hopefully) progress in the future. I also would have liked some of Sadie’s storylines to be fleshed out more, particularly around her custody case. We got very little information about how it came about, how it ended, and what happened to her father so I’d be very intrigued to get more information about that.

Oof. My heart. Loved this. I just want to hug Sadie, but I’ll totes settle for the way that Rhys steps up and cares for her. And Oliver and Liam. Ugh, that boy *heart melts*. I really enjoyed the character growth in this one.

This was so good. I loved this book. I really liked the character development and the mental health development of the characters. Also the fact that once they got together, their mental health challenges didn’t disappear, showing that love didn’t cure their troubles.

What a lovely story that discusses mental health in sports. And also a story of growth and healing and learning to heal with others. I love how human these characters are. All flawed and beautiful.

I have to be honest, the first few chapters of this book got me thinking: "Ok where the heck is this thing going?"

I'll tell you where it went (or what it did).

It took me on a heartbreakingly romantic ride that made me question why I haven't met my 6'3 hot hockey captain who loves me and my f-ed life unconditionally, and is more than willing to fight his inner demons by go to therapy for himself and our relationship because he wants to feel worthy of me.

So thank you, Peyton Corinne for making me realize what it truly means to be loved and that no man in my life will ever live up to the Rhys Maximillian Koteskiy standard in just 360 pages.

And if you're a reader (or better yet, a hockey romance enthusiast) and you're contemplating on picking this book up, DO IT. I'M TELLING YOU RIGHT NOW. DO. IT. And I mean that in the most loving, most gentle way possible. 😄
