garrett graham, my favorite book boyfriend. what else can i say??
this is the first book in the briar universe, so it's possible you've never read one of these books if you're reading this review. so i'll go more in depth.
garrett graham is briar university's #1 hockey star. he doesn't do girlfriends. he only cares about hockey, but he needs help passing a class to be eligible to play.
hannah wells is a singer who stays pretty much out of the limelight at school. she has some personal issues from her past (trigger warning: sexual assault). hannah aced the midterm and garrett wants her to help tutor him.
hannah essentially says "heck no," but the boy won't ever stop and yadda yadda yadda.
they strike a deal. i won't go into much detail because i don't want to spoil anything. this book is a fake dating, friends-to-lovers, beautiful piece of chocolate cake masterpiece. with the added benefit of sexy hockey players and steamy sex.
all of elle kennedy's books contain sexual content, so stay away if that is not your thing. (i highly recommend you don't stay away, though)
as i said in the trigger warning above, this book contains content regarding sexual assault. this book is very sex-positive and the way the situation is handled is done well. 5 stars from me.
