Loved it.
Told purely from the POV of Roman, the love interest, rather than Layne, the hockey player,this gave an entirely different view on the world of hockey. Roman is a geek and has clue about sports, so the one hockey scene we do get in this book is a joy of confusion and shirt colours.
Although this is an age gap romance (which this author does so well) Roman is an old soul, so the age gap never feels like the 16 years it is. The relationship is one of those 'when you meet the right one you know' but never felt insta-lovey.
The story has much to say on the role of the press, the right to the truth versus an individuals right to privacy, all filtered through the eyes of a wannabe journalist.
Highly recommended. ( )

Oh my! Such drama! Lol

Roman is a journalism college student who is whisked away to Chicago with his best friend for a reason his friend isn’t willing to share. Dillion is super grumpy and refuses to talk with Roman while he tries to figure stuff out. Roman is now having to entertain himself in Chicago and meets the gorgeous Layne. Layne is a hockey player 16 years older than Roman. They are quickly smitten and their relationship moves quickly.

Then the drama comes in a way I kind of saw coming. Luckily it doesn’t affect their relationship in an angsty way. I loved how the author wrote the main story line, but also how the story dealt with Roman’s interpretation of journalism and how personal privacy is affected.

This was well written and very enjoyable! ( )
