3.75
challenging emotional hopeful inspiring tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated

This was sold to me on bookstagram as a hockey romance… and it is NOT THAT lol. The book is a childhood abduction with a family reunion where the MMC happens to play hockey. 

The plot wasn’t something I’ve read before but I really enjoyed it! Both main characters have some trauma - shocker - and them overcoming that is a main theme. 

I could have done with 100 pages less - at the end I was annoyed with both of them… but again trauma lol

Spice was very good 🔥
