okay first of all. reading this book and realizing it was the 4th in a series of gay hockey romances so there's just like half a dozen gay nhl players milling around the background of this book is FUCKING hilarious. i love you gay sports romance genre please never change (except do change bc i need these in lesbian so badly)
more romantic than i was expecting tbh! the sex scenes are long and very well done, i feel like they take their time to explore a really interesting dynamic between a 25yo dom and a 41yo exploring his bisexuality and submissiveness for the first time.
toward the end of the book, the age gap causing a rift between them did seem to drag on, simply because their ideas for why they couldn't be together don't really change throughout the book so at a certain point it's like. you guys are being stupid on purpose now. but overall a fun read and a fun relationship and lots of fun sex :)
