4.75⭐️ - Everything we could want in the continuation of Shane and Ilya's story! Steamy, sweet, and such a well-built world!
Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov have been together in secret for so many years now that hiding their relationship has begun to take a serious toll. With friends and teammates coming out recently, it's becoming increasingly hard to justify not going public, but the fear of fan and league reaction is still really strong. With the potential of their hand being forced and increasing negative pressure from the NHL itself, it becomes clear that they're soon going to have to make some serious choices about their careers and lives together...
This was such a satisfying conclusion(?) to their story together, pulling together so many of the branching stories that have been introduced in the earlier books. With the book taking place alongside Role Model, chronologically, we also get to see a lot more of Kyle and Harris from that book, as well as Haden, Scott, Kip, etc. from the earlier books. The most powerful thing about it though, is the way in which the boys stand up to the league and make it clear how strong their support for each other is.
I really hope we get more in this series, because it's so good!!
