Eeekk sweet little Muffin! Icebreaker was my first ever hockey romance and started a new obsession for me. No regrets there (heyyyy Seattle Kraken). In the first book Russ was a secondary character and honestly I was surprised he was the MC for Wildfire. Surprised but not disappointed. 

So to be vague (because spoilers) Russ gets into a little trouble in Icebreaker, something that is out of is control but he carries it with him regardless thanks in part to his home life. Despite being a pretty amazing person, Russ just doesn’t see himself in any type of positive light. 

Aurora (Rory 😍) is a wild child. The poster girl for acting out to get her father’s attention. Never getting the attention she needs or wanted from her parents Aurora keeps everyone at arms length. They can’t hurt her if she doesn’t let them in right? 

When these two meet the second time (😉) let the trauma bonding begin! Can two people so damaged help repair one another? Can two people with so much baggage unpack together and find kinship? Find their mirror? 

This was such a fantastic book! I did not want to stop reading, I could not stop reading! I really felt for Russ and Rory and I cheered them on so hard seeing the parallels in their lives. The supporting characters were amazing (looking at you Xander) and of course any time there’s men melting over puppies is a plus (and now going forward all my dogs will be fish themed in name). Henry’s dry personality is still everything to me and I’m BEGGING Hannah Grace for his book! As said about, this was a great read that I can’t recommend enough and I’ll probably be doing a reread in the next few months!
