Description

Allie Hayes is feeling the pressure as graduation approaches. Juggling her final semester and the uncertainty of what lies ahead, she finds herself in a bit of a panic. Just when she thinks things can’t get messier, she crosses paths with the charming and notorious hockey player, Dean Sherwood. He seems to know exactly how to play the game, both on the rink and in the chaos of college life.

Allie's life turns upside down as Dean, with his effortless charisma, offers her a distraction that she didn’t know she needed. Their connection grows in unexpected ways, blending laughter, secrets, and the thrill of their university experiences. As they navigate the highs and lows together, Allie must decide whether to take a leap of faith or stick to her carefully laid plans for the future.

As the stakes rise, the ice beneath them becomes slippery. Will Allie find the courage to break free from her rigid expectations and embrace the whirlwind of emotions that Dean brings? In this captivating tale of love and self-discovery, she may just learn the most important lesson of all: sometimes, the best things in life come when you least expect them.

4.5⭐I really, really liked this.Dean was exactly the kind of character I expected to love, and I absolutely did. The banter between him and Allie was probably my favorite part of the book. They were so much fun together, the chemistry was great and I loved watching something that was supposed to be completely casual turn into Dean being completely, embarrassingly gone for her.I also really liked Allie, and I loved that their relationship actually felt like a relationship, not just two hot people being thrown together for 300 pages.My main issue is that it did feel a bit too long. I was enjoying it the whole time, but there were definitely moments where I thought we could move things along a little faster.The ending also hit me much harder than I expected. I related a lot to Allie trying to support someone who is grieving and having absolutely no idea what the right thing to do is. The helplessness, the anger, the frustration of watching someone you love suffer while knowing you can't fix it (and sometimes wanting to smack some sense into them, but still wanting to be the best version of yourself for them, even if that means discarding your own boundaries and happiness) felt painfully familiar. I wasn't expecting that kind of emotional gut punch from this book at all.Basically, I came for the asshole manwhore becoming the rebound and stayed for him falling hopelessly in love and then unexpectedly making me feel things.4.5 stars. Very, very close to a 5.
