Love Tuckers story! I wish they would have communicated better instead of waiting for one or other to take the first step. But loved reading the about the life they built together

“Because love is the ultimate goal. It’s not the one I had strived for, but I was lucky enough, so damn lucky, to achieve it.”
- The Goal
Tropes: Sports (Hockey), College, One-Night Stand, Surprise Pregnancy, Slow Burn
Spice Scale: 🌶🌶🌶🌶
CW: Pregnancy, Death, Grief, Sexual Harassment
The Goal was the slowest burn of the series, which I really loved. It was well paced and allowed for some amazing character development. It also gave a different perspective on the events from The Score, which was interesting to read.
Sabrina was independent and stubborn which contrasted against Tucker’s easygoing and friendly manner well. I loved how much of a gentleman cinnamon roll Tucker was while also being surprisingly dirty.
Surprise pregnancy gets a bad rap, but The Goal handled the trope so well. So if you’re looking for a book to change your mind on the trope, this one might just be it.

I had originally DNF’d this book twice before which was honestly so sad since I loved the three books in the series prior to this. Once I finally sat down and made myself read it, I was a lot more open to it. It definitely helped going into this knowing it was an accidental pregnancy trope otherwise I would have HATED this book. ALSO MY SOULD WAS RIPPED OUT BECAUSE I HAD FORGOTTEN THAT BEAU DIED

Probably my least favorite of the series so far. Alot of back and forth. Alot of internal yelling "go for it! Stand up for yourself! Tell him!" Now on to the last book :)
