From page one, this book was so much fun. It's quite short, so it moves at a quick clip, but it worked really well. I am especially fond of low drama romances, and that is what I got here. Just enough drama to keep it interesting, but not distract from the awesome connection and chemistry between the hero and the heroine. And the last two chapters!!!



I l-o-v-e hockey romances, and am always looking for new series to add to my TBR. I had never read a Lia Riley book, but from page one, this book was so much fun, that I actually bought the first book in the series, and added the third to my wish list.
Pro: A fun and fantastic enemies-to-lovers story. Tor saw the media as the enemy, and Neve was always there to get her story. The two verbally sparred like gladiators, which was fun to watch, but even better was seeing all that hate turn to love.

•Pro: This was low drama. The major source of strife was Neve being a hockey reporter and Tor being the coach of the local team, and that was enough for drama for me.

•Pro: These were two passionate people and when they were together, there weren't just sparks, there was fire.

•Pro: There was a lot more to Tor than the angry vibes he gave off. I loved the way Riley slowly unwrapped him for us, revealing these wonderful things about him, bit by bit. He was a loving brother, doting father, committed co-parent, with a hidden sense of humor and a little bit of baggage too, which resulted in one great hero.

•Pro: Neve was a little spitfire, and she was lugging about some serious baggage too. I loved when Tor was able to help her unload some of that, and made her see what he saw when he looked at her.

•Con: I wish the book had been a bit longer, because I wanted more Tor and Neve, but I also would have liked a little more from the ending. It was an good ending, in that I know where this couple is going, and it was quite fun, but it was a little abrupt.

•Pro: This book was fun, fun, fun! I just kept grinning the whole time I read this book. Seriously, people were staring, because I just could not stop smiling.

•Pro: The wedding weekend was so brilliantly done. Riley found this perfect balance of comedy, angst, and heat, and I loved every second of it.

Overall: A fun, sexy, sweet enemies-to-lovers romance, which left me smiling from ear to ear.

*I would like to thank the publisher for the advanced copy of this book.
