A review by amarachireadss
Hook Shot by Kennedy Ryan
4.5
“I have found the one whom my soul loves,” he quotes. More tears rain over my cheeks; a release years overdue. I weep for every time I’ve felt unloved, unwanted, unnecessary, and imperfect. It’s all there in the look he settles on me. To him, I’m more than enough. I’m all that he wants.”
This just may be my favorite book in this series. I really enjoyed the personal journey that both Keenan and Lotus went through and the romance 🥹. Their connection, chemistry, the drama and the friendship made this such a good read. I really really appreciated the healing that Lotus had to go through that stemmed from the trauma she went through.
Something that was really interesting to me in this book was Lotus’s spirituality. The combination of New Orleans voodoo and christianity and how it shaped her relationship with Kennan and also her healing was so unique and different. At first I was like huh but I really liked how it played out especially with the Song of Solomon verses and also the voodoo healing(?). Like always the way Kennedy Ryan writes friendships and healing was really well done and I liked the glimpses of characters from the first 2 books.
Tropes/themes
- Single dad
- Age gap

- Slow burn
- Sports romance
