Summary

Seventeen-year-old Mickey James III is a college freshman, a brother to five sisters, and a hockey legacy. With a father and a grandfather who have gone down in NHL history, Mickey is almost guaranteed the league’s top draft spot.

The only person standing in his way is Jaysen Caulfield, a contender for the #1 spot and Mickey’s infuriating (and infuriatingly attractive) teammate. When rivalry turns to something more, Mickey will have to decide what he really wants, and what he’s willing to risk for it.

This is a story about falling in love, finding your team (on and off the ice), and choosing your own path.

Loved how this story grips you and the characters grow. The main character inner monologue and the challenges they face at university and college ice hockey

I know depression and what it does with you. This story reflects that well. Sometimes I wanted a bit more highs to go with the lows in the second part. You heard about all that went wrong with matches but not about the good ones. Why? I also kept wondering why Jaysen even bothered when getting absolutely nothing but meh from M. So some kind of response would have been good for the story I think. Still, I liked the pace and the storytelling quite a bit.

The story kept away from the usual norms about hockey guys which was refreshing. The boys on the team was sweet, cozy and understanding, same with the families. They knew that this is not reality in general, and we know that. But still, I liked having this instead of deepening the view of all hockey guys as intolerant jerks. Like something to aim for and encourage.

Narrator was a bit blank at start but got really good after a while. Like he softened up to the story.

I hope for a part two and will look for more by the narrator.

Cute and important
