I love a good friends to lovers book, and more history, more better. These two have been friends for years and years and years. Not only were they friends, but they seemed to also be each other's "person". When Libby was struggling with the transition from home schooling to public school, Justin was there for her. When Justin was having confidence issues during his rookie season, Libby was there for him. There was no doubt, that they had a solid friendship, and it was wonderful watching it turn into more. I also love the way crochet worked its way into the story. Nothing like some happy hookers.

Pretty good puck...

I enjoyed this friends-to-lovers short story and thought the main characters were pretty entertaining. I think the main problem with a short story like this is that we don't get a lot of time "seeing" the reformed manwhore become a monogamous and dedicated loving man. Sure, the big gestures mean a lot but I wanted to see them weather a few storms and navigate the choppy seas.

When we first meet Justin and Libby they are not romantically interested in each other. Justin has just dumped his clingy girlfriend and Libby has a crush on one of her workmates. As they have been friends for a long time, Libby decides to ask for some advice or how to get her man. It's not long before they start to feel an attraction to each other. The tricky part is that neither wants to risk their longstanding friendship.

The narrators do a really good job and I found them very easy to listen to.

Once I got past the beginning where there was no attraction or tension, I settled in for an entertaining little treat. Yes, I would have liked to "see" Justin be in the relationship a little more, but there was enough to leave me somewhat satisfied.

If you're a fan of hockey romance, I definitely suggest giving Hot as Puck a try.
