What to Expect:⋆✴︎˚｡⋆  sports romance ➺ hockey ➺ forced proximity ➺ single dad ➺ found family ➺ coach vs owner’s daughter ➺ black cat & golden retriever ➺ slow burn ➺ he likes everyone but her ⋆✴︎˚｡⋆ I had such high hopes for this book but unfortunately this one didn’t do it for me. The burn was just too slow, and it carried on for too long. I never fully connected with Tate and Jordan as a couple nor as an individual character either.
