4.75⭐️ - A sweet and snowy sapphic romance with NCAA teammates who become olympic rivals and now co-hosts!
Darcy, former three time gold medalist for Team Canada's ice-hockey team has been retired for three years now and putting in hard work at her television station in the hopes of one day making it to the the screen as a hockey commentator. She feels like this is closer to becoming reality when the veteran anchor for the station decides he'd rather not be the laughing stock who tries and fails all the spots for fun segments at the upcoming Winter Olympics and it's offered to her. However, she's going to need a co-host...
Natalie was looking forward to trying to gain her second olympic medal for Team USA at the games, but this dream is crushed when a younger player takes her spot on the team and she's pushed out. Being forced to re-evaluate her options, it seems like good timing when her agent offers her an on-air spot at the games, allowing her to keep close to the action. However, she's not particularly thrilled when she finds out she'll be working with Darcy. Not when, during their time as NCAA champion teammates, they had a secret romance that ended in heartbreak for Nat.
As they head to the games and start doing their segments they're happy to find that they're well received. Going somewhat viral though is a hashtag that suggests that they're secretly a couple - their on-air rivalry coming off very flirty - and because this is good for the ratings, the station are all in favour of keeping the theory going. As the games progress, the find that the flirting becomes a little more than just pretend and old feelings come to the fore again, forcing them to confront all that happened with them before.
This was super sweet and fun. I loved the dynamic that Nat and Darcy had, how their handler at the station was getting steadily more and more frustrated with their bickering, etc. It was really entertaining reading about all the sports they tried and so it makes for an altogether great fine. Big recommend if you're as obsessed with queer hockey romance as I am lately, hehe.
