I didn’t love it. It’s a simple read and quick - I was able to finish it in one evening. I really didn’t like the mmc. He kept saying he wouldn’t pressure the fmc to have a relationship…and would then proceed to pressure her. And then she had to give everything up to follow him ?!
It has some tropes I usually enjoy but this story fell flat

A fast and fun read, but perhaps a bit too much happening in the wings for such a short tale. I feel like I’ve not got much closure, particularly when it comes to Britta’s family life which was such a big part of why she is the way that she is.
I know not to expect much depth from a novella but, by being a short story, I think it is reasonable to leave out some of the sub-plots and just get down to the nitty gritty. Otherwise, you end up with a story that’s more surface level than its potential would allow it to be.

Quick read. Sweet story.
Gotta love a hero who’s been obsessed since day one.

Super quick lighthearted read. FMC has some relationship hang ups that are very quickly “resolved” to move the story along but it is still a good storyline.

This is a cute hockey romance, but I think it could have benefitted from the character development of being a full length book. Still, a fun quick read!

Here’s a novella that was short but didn’t feel short. While there are probably inaccuracies in the immigration process, it was a good romance book. Sumner fell first and fell hard, and was so determined.

This wasn't very memorable. Just a short, quick romance with a lot of spice.

I love the banter and the joy that Tessa brought in her stories. And the story between Sumner and Britta is not an exception.
It is an mariage of connivence between a golden retriever 6 foot 5 hockey player and an independent bartender.
The spice is 🌶🌶🌶/5
I laughed heartily many times.
The narrator did a great job!
