Read Second

This book should have been the second in the series. The second book should be read first. I didn’t think this book was very good until I read the second book. I read this one again after reading the second book, and it was so much better knowing the back story.

Fabulously Spicey

This book was very well written. The spice was well described and had the heat. The story flowed well and was easy to sink into and follow.

Good story line….

With a hea. I skimmed through the sex scenes but right now that’s my choice. Narrators were very good. I love hockey stories for some reason. lol.

Jax is a good guy

3.5 ⭐️ I really enjoyed the writing. This is my first book by this author. There was emotional tension, plot tension, and sexual tension. The ending felt very rushed. All in all, I’d recommend it to anyone that likes this type of book. There is an extended epilogue in ebook version that’s not in audio.

Surprisingly Emotional Sports Romance

The characters are so well written. Storyline touches on parental neglect and the marks that leaves on a person. Well written and worth your time.

Character Development

Definitely one to read if you want a spicy romance and a few good laughs.

Really cute and sexy story!

Super cute and sexy and I flew through this! It's got all those he falls first vibes, but there's some great angst and tension because she's resistant. The fall so cutely and sweet and slowly but it's also super spicy, they have stellar chemistry, and the spice was spicing.

It's a longer book, perhaps has a few less needed/repetitive bits, but I found it super consumable on audio and really adored it.

Audio performances are fantastic- def worth the price or credit!

Great Story

This was a great love story between two strong characters. The heroine was smart and strong, and I loved that about this story. Too many romance books have cringe worthy heroines. Great book.

I'm so happy that I've finally started this series. After hearing so many great things about it I have to say this book started out with a bang! Jacks was such a golden boy and I love them in my hockey romance. J. Wilder did an amazing job with this book.

💚 Found Family
🏒 He Falls First & Hard
💚 Tutor/Study Sessions

I have to say that I was pulling for this couple the entite time. Sidney had 5 rules when it came to guys and no dating or sleeping with hockey players was on it.

After having a rough life, Sidney never felt like she was important or #1 in anyone lives. She had goals and girl was going places, big places. Her father played in the NHL and was now a coach for it and he broke promise after promise to her. He never showed up, made excuses and always made sure to tell his daughter that was just how so hockey players were. He was a giant POS to treat her that way.

Jacks was the college hockey star and already signed to play for the NHL. He was in his senior year, and would soon be off living a life for his best friend. He was super smart and super gorgeous. Girls wanted him all the time. He lived a non-serious life because he knew he was leaving for Boston come graduation.

After meeting Sidney in a club one night, he was hooked. He wanted to hook up with her and the attraction was strong between them. Once she found out he played hockey, she told him the rules and backed away. Jacks considered that a challenge and wanted to break all her rules.

After finding out they attended the same college, they actually had a really tough class together. Jacks was getting an A and she really needed help in passing this class. He offered to help study with her and their attraction only grew.

The chemistry between these two were of the charts. They were like magnets always pulled towards one another. It started off as friends, and Jacks took what he could get but always knew he wanted more. He broke down her walls and her rules.

He fell hard and fast for her and wanted another life with her, but didn't know how that would work. They were both on different paths. She told him it had to end at graduation. Things happened out of their control and Jacks ended up making a mistake that cost them. Both were heartbroken and miserable. If only Jacks could make it right.

The narrating was good. I thought the girl doing Jacks voice made him sound a little slow, but both her and the guy narrator did a good job. Not the best I've heard, but definitely not the worst.

I would have liked to have heard more on Sidney's mom, but it was never spoken about. Nor how Sidney got her scar. Jacks brought up wanting to know about it in his mind and kissing/licking it, but he never asked and she never told. I feel a few things should have been described more, or they left them out for later on that should have been mentioned. A very great read, though and I can't wait to read the next ones in this series.
