This is another I had heard about over and over again, particularly on TikTok with women having their hockey men reading certain....spicy scenes. Eventually, I wanted to find out what all the hype was about. Anastasia is a pairs figure skater with Olympic dreams and a horrible partner/friend in Aaron. Nate is a hockey star determined to keep his team out of trouble. Of course, trouble happens, throwing them into having to share a rink, constantly crossing paths, with sparks and fists flying. It gave very 'The Cutting Edge' feels, with a ton of smut. Admittedly, I couldn't understand why Nate liked Anastasia....she wasn't a nice person, so his pursuit of her didn't make sense to me. Nate was a big Golden Retriever, and I loved him. Aaron was just a horrible human, with NO redeeming qualities. The rest of the supporting cast were what made this book for me, to be honest. Henry, JJ, Lola were great. There was a lack of real conflict other than Aaron's mere existence, and Nate's motivation was absent other than wanting Anastasia. And while I do enjoy spice, I need more than endless sex scenes to make a book a good read. Overall, this one was ok.
