Reading this novella made me remember how much I love Lincoln and Ari and how excited I am for Walker's story.
Lincoln and Ari ate both possessive MMCs, absolutely obsessed with their girls to the point where it makes them borderline psychotic. And I'm really hoping Walker is the same way.
This was a very fun and super spicy novella. I loved that we got more of Lincoln and Monroe and Ari and Blake during the holiday season as well as a bit more of Walker.

Cole Kincaid, you wonderful book boyfriend.
This story was absolute perfection 🩷
I love a brother's best friend / coach's daughter hockey romance. And Veronica did such an amazing job writing Cole's and Eve's story.
First of all, Eve is such a wonderful character. I thought Veronica did an amazing job portraying a character with ADHD. We got to see the ups and downs of this character living with ADHD and honestly, it made Eve's character more relatable and realistic.
Then there's Cole. Wonderful, beautiful Cole. Such a cinnamon roll MMC with a but if a past reputation for playing the field. Not really one to settle down in one place for too long. But after returning to Heston Lake for a coaching opportunity, he finds himself wanting to put down roots, especially since he's reconnected with Eve.
My favourite thing about Cole is how supportive he is of Eve. He never makes her feel bad about who she is or how she acts. Instead, he encourages her, listens to her and is her number one cheerleader.
This was a perfect book to read for the holiday season as it is so heart warming with a perfect HEA.

Ahhhhh! Once again, GM knocked it out of the park.
I cannot get over how good this was. GM is so good at writing why choose romances and this one didn't disappoint. While this book isn't a dark romance, it does contain dark themes so be sure to check content warnings.
I haven't read a rockstar romance in quite a long time and this one was so much fun. It may seem a bit absurd considering how the FMC meets the MMCs and the deal they make but I loved all of it.
As for the MMCs, god they are such big marshmallows, even Royal who acts like an asshole but is such a softie. I loved their friendships with each other as well as their individual relationships with Charlotte.
This book was so fun to read and I would love to read more about The Daymakers

😭😭😭😭😭😭
I can't believe this series is finished. This was such a perfect ending. Each book got better and better.
My heart went on a wild ride with this one. I thought book 2 was emotional but this one put me through the ringer.
I've been a huge fan of these characters since book 1. I thought they were so loveable and had so much depth. I will forever be a Stats Daddy Fan but omg, I was so surprised by Decker. He is definitely the character with the most growth.
I pretty much had tears in my eyes during the entire second part of the book. Abby did an amazing job shattering my heart just to skillfully put it back together.
These boys are all so wonderful and amazing in their own ways. So happy it's a why choose because I could never choose just one of them ♥️

This was a fun fast-paced read. I really enjoyed the characters (Rigby was my favourite). I didn't want the story to end and wished there was a bit more or at least an extended epilogue.

I cannot get over how good this book was! It is a slow burn RH but the main focus is on the FMC and her healing after being kidnapped for 5 years. It was such a page turner and the writing was so good. The characters had so much depth to them that I'm honestly sad that it's over.
