I really liked this book. I love the whole good-two-shoes and wild boy romance theme. Connell is so funny and I love his character so much. Annabelle was such a sweet character and I love her inner turmoil with her attraction to Connell. I loooved the ostriches and how he dressed up as one so cute. The descriptions of the pictures at the end melted my heart. I was upset about the photo shoot because I could see where it would lead with Annabelle but everything was so cute. The ending too, but I can’t help but question how they’re gonna get the furniture down and deal with the holes on the ceiling.

Gah! Samantha’s hockey men are my FAV! Connell and Annabelle are no exception! Connell gets himself into a pickle and uses his time to make a connection with Annabelle. I love how much respect Connell has for her and her wishes-always. Annabelle has a lot thrown at her and her trust is fragile-Connell proves she is what he wants above all others
I love so much how the Reapers (and the Sharks) really build on their hockey family! I can’t wait for the next one
*I received an ARC for my honest opinion*

** I WAS GIVEN AN ARC IN EXCHANGE FOR MY HONEST REVIEW **
This series has been full of swoon worthy men who want nothing more to make their special ladies makes me love hockey more and the men on the Reapers.
Connell has had my interest peaked for since Axel, mainly because personally how many people from Scotland come over to play hockey and get in the NHL. Don't jump all over me, I may have this love of hockey and a few teams but it is not my obsessive love, I know my teams and my player, that's about it. ( Woot Got Oilers! ) I also love his joking nature, that to me shows he has a kind, playful heart which is shown here and his relationship with Annabelle, prior to it becoming a romantic relationship.
I love Annabelle because she is real on many levels, she is a fuller woman, and to me as bigger fuller woman, that is great to see in a book, and get the hot hockey player! She is also so confident, even though she shows some small bouts of self doubt. That shows she is normal and a great and relatable character.
Connell and Annabelle are sweet and honestly a dream couple, he is the best for her, the soft and funny to her hard and serious.
This whole series so far have the best Book Boyfriends that I am ready to steal.

Alright, let's talk about a book that made me feel things without me even expecting to. Between the cute lovey-dovey scenes that Connell and Annabelle have, to their little sexy moments... I was definitely hooked.
This book is filled with scenes between two people who on paper, shouldn't be together, but are nothing more than perfect for each other. I have never been so in love with two characters than these two.
Connell reminds me of John Logan - someone who thought relationships weren't worth it, but when he found the right person, he was hooked, in love before his mind even caught up to him.
Annabelle reminds me of myself, a girl who wants nothing but to do what her heart desires, to explore, to work, to be successful out of her own accord, not because of someone else. Put the two together and well... bam you've got chemistry.
A book that's filled with cute banter, family and well an epic love story. 10/10 would read again.
