This was one of my most anticipated reads this year but unfortunately it was a bit of a let down. I really love the puckboys-series but this book couldn’t really keep up with the rest of the series. I don’t really enjoy the brother‘s best friend trope, but Eden Finley and Saxon James have a way of making it good. With Easton and Knox it was a little too much for me though. I just had some problems with them in general. They were cute together but I found every single other relationship in this book more interesting than them. Like the brotherly relationship between Connor and Easton, the friendship between Connor and Knox, the obvious setup for Connor’s own book… I was honestly so much more excited for Connor than for Easton and Knox and it wasn’t even his own book yet… I don’t know, I think their feelings and conflicts just felt a bit forced to me. I also expected much more Collective content. Especially with the way the book was marketed, I thought the fundraiser game would be much more of a focus in this book. And the whole ref x player trope was also not as present as it was made out to be. All in all, I had very different expectations for this book that weren’t really met but it was still a cute, easy and enjoyable read. And I’m already super hyped for the next book!
