Break the Ice by L.A. Cotton

4.0

we love a hockey college romance book!

okay so this is my first book by L.A. Cotton and it was so good! I did this one on audio and it made me so happy that teddy was one of the narrators. he's one of my all time favorite. i really enjoyed this story of noah and aurora. i love a good opposties attract, and especially when they are college aged. you can really go many different directions and this one hit the spot for me. i got an ALC of this and i loved being able to hear the characters. i feel like there is a different experience when listening to it. i loved how romanctic noah was. it really was a nice surprise considering he is such a playboy. i loved how they started out as housemates and then rory’s brother asked him to watch out for her. rory was such a relatable character and it was easy to fall in love with her. they shared a lot of little moments that lead to them finding love. i loved seeing the character growth and i really enjoyed seeing them navigate their own issues and helping each other by supporting one another. this was a cute and fun story to listen to! i definitely recommend if you like hockey and college aged romance!
