Amount of spice: 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Explicitness: 🌶️🌶️🌶️
Tropes/Themes:
❤ Hockey Romance
❤ Second Gen
❤ Secret Romance
❤ Found Family
❤ Laugh Out Loud Funny
❤ No Third Act Break Up
I’ve decided Elle is the queen of a secret, let’s sneak around romance and I eat it up every time. I’ll be honest, this didn’t hit quite at the same level as The Deal or The Score did for me because those are ten star books but I was absolutely glued to the pages. I normally find myself extremely bored by contemporary romance that drags for over 350 pages but I flew through this, I didn’t even notice the length.
I adored all the cameos from the original off campus crew and loved how they really have all become one big family. I wasn’t expecting this to be such a sweet, gentle romance but there were parts that were so moving, in a way I haven’t seen from Elle before. I also think this is the funniest of all the Elle Kennedy books so far. I found myself laughing out loud in an embarrassing way so many times while reading.
I would recommend this if you loved the Off Campus Series (and also if you haven’t read it), enjoy a secret romance and characters that will suck you in and have you wanting to stay in their fictional world for as long as possible.
