lore. Also, given that it’s Tessa Bailey’s writing, it has to be at least 4 stars, so although it didn’t get 5 and I may not reread its epilogue as much as the others, I still loved it and would recommend it to romance readers. 30:T597,
Tessa Bailey does it again with another fun, fast-paced, smutty romance.

I didn’t realize that step-sibling romance was such a taboo? They met as adults, it’s not like they grew up together as actual siblings. I personally didn’t find it weird at all, but my husband disagrees with me, so maybe I’m the weird one? I grew up obsessed with Clueless and Life With Derek, so maybe that skews my opinion.

The will-they-won’t-they tension build-up was phenomenal. And the forbidden aspect combined with the insta-love vibe made everything feel even headier.

However, I wouldn’t really consider this a sports romance. Sure, Sig plays professional hockey, and Chloe goes to his games, but I feel like something was missing for this to be a true sports romance. There weren’t any locker room scenes or moments from Sig’s POV during games or practice.

I did love all the moments with Sig and his teammates; they could get up to MQ’s Alligators bromance caliber if Tessa Bailey keeps this up.

Chloe was kind of over the top for me. Do people who are actually this clueless to the world actually exist in real life? I understand she was sheltered and privileged, but to not know dogs eat kibble? Wild.

Overall, this book had its ups and downs, but the humor and tension building make it a four-star read for me.
