Piper Rayne IS an excellent duo at writing smart, sweet and sexy romcoms with fun, feisty and often just a bit quirky (and often interconnected) characters. I adore several of their book series and recommend them often. Now with that said, -and sure, this one might be something new and “easy” aimed at hooking a younger audience - BUT… to me, this series starter just feels super naive and juvenile. Like REALLY naive, both in the portrayal of the MCs and the storyline, which has really good bones and could have been excellent. -The story isn’t just lacking in depth, it also uses lots of shortcuts and easy stereotyping for most character backgrounds, flaws and reactions instead of actually “showing” the character development in progress via flashbacks or similar techniques and letting the actions of the characters speak for themselves, which is disappointing. Another thing is the use of the 90’s staple, The OTT “grand gestures”, combined with unnecessary moping and waiting months to plan out these expensive and dumb gestures, instead of resolving issues with direct and actual communication. I must ad that YES I read the prequel and YES I usually enjoy this writing duos work. A LOT! There is a Prequels / prologue short “False Start” Connecting characters: Lee Burrows is the baby brother of Kane Burrows Goalie and later coach for the Florida Fury in Offside With #55 (ie #6 in Hockey Hotties Series)
