I got a kindle copy for free (20/03/2020) and there is not much to say other than I really loved this.
It's the story of Hannah and Garrett, a music major and the captain of the university hockey team. She aces a midterm most of the class fails and he's insistant that she tutor him.
I was somewhat reluctant going into this book because of the 'Bad Boy' description of Garrett but I can happily confirm he's more of a lovable jackass. Their banter is fast and funny and just a joy to read. I found myself smiling or giggling at my phone. It felt like the excitment of having a crush or the start of a relationship. Their relationship develops in a really natural way. A charming strangers to friends to lovers.
Both of the protagonists are survivors; TWs for sexual assault and domestic/child abuse
