I am heartbroken that the Wildcat Hockey series has ended. It is my absolute favorite emotional support hockey romance series. Everly and Jack are the perfect couple to end this on. I was hesitant at first due to the age gap, but rereading the series, I was reminded of their chemistry. The development of this relationship felt really organic and Rebecca Jenshak made it not weird. Everly figuring out what she really wanted in life and a career was a powerful storyline. While Jack being injured and vulnerable, broke down walls that allowed their relationship to really flourish.

The one downside of this book is the rest of the crew were all gone during the summer. I missed them, though I understand it would have been a completely different story and relationship if everyone was hovering around as they normally did. I’m still hoping for a bonus chapter that shows a little peek into the future of everyone. I hope these characters continue to pop up in other books by this author.
