It's a Love/Skate Relationship by Carli J. Corson

funny hopeful lighthearted

4.0

It’s kind of like a Disney Channel Original Movie, but make it gay. And you know what? I’m gonna eat that up. It does mean that the conflict and everything require a suspension of disbelief because it’s all super played up and dramatic without ever getting deep but it’s fun! The premise is also totally DCOM material: butch hockey player gets in trouble after a huge, damage-causing off-ice fight with her school’s rival team and has to fill in as the ice princess’s figure skating partner to pay off her debt? I mean, you’re seated already, right? 

The fact that it ends up being an uplifting sports story where they ~just might fall in love~ is just the cherry on top. 

Also, the cover is the most adorable thing I’ve ever seen. 

It’s probably closer to 3.5 for me but I’m going to round up because sapphic hockey player/figure skater romance <333 duh

Thank you to NetGalley and HarperCollins Children’s Books for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.
