Another book I accidentally deleted from my Goodreads.

I don’t know how she does it, but I was sucked right into this book within the very first page. Of course it probably helped having a few of my favorite characters from the Pucked series to ease me into these characters. But it wasn’t just the familiar ones that made me love this story, it was that once again Hunting has created characters that you can’t help but fall in love with. I’m almost positive that Rook, or RJ, is going to be my new book boyfriend. In Hunting’s hockey world, he’s pretty close to beating out Randy for me. Of course it is obvious right away what RJ’s lie is going to be, even from the synopsis above you know it will have something to do with who he is. And in the story, we’re pretty much figuring it out pretty quickly. However, Lainey’s lie isn’t quite as straight forward, we go almost half way through the story before we find out. And honestly, her lie doesn’t really count like his lie does, in my opinion. I like the way Hunting handled this side of the story, and I want to say how much I adored certain things, but can’t do it without giving away Lainey’s lie. We also get some new characters added, RJ’s family for instance, and I see that his sister is going to be one of the main characters in the second book. I have a guess at who her love interest will be, which of RJ’s new teammates, and I think I’m really looking forward to book 2, so, is it 2020 yet?
Oh yeah, and I forgot to mention how much I love when Violet is around. I adore her and her sense of humor. So happy that the author includes her and that she’ll be in the next book too!
