Description
The fall from NHL superstar to domestic disaster was swift and painful. When I became the legal guardian of my five younger siblings, I had no idea what I was doing.
One year later, I’m still lost.
Coaching CU’s hockey team might be the only thing I’m excelling at. But when our star forward is failing math, I have to do what it takes to keep him on the team. Even if it’s going head-to-head with Jasper Eckstein.
One minute I’m confronting the notorious hockey-hating professor, and the next I’m agreeing to be his date to his twenty-year high school reunion.
I don’t know how that happened.
JASPER
My rules are simple. I don’t give extra credit. Ever. No matter how entitled jocks think they are, I refuse to give them special treatment.
It's not because I hate them. It's not because a hockey player broke my nose in high school.
It's fair.
But when Westly Dalton bursts into my office like a hurricane, all my principles fly out the window.
Suddenly I'm giving extra credit.
And I have a date to my reunion.
After one explosive night together, I want more, but his home life is a mess, and I don't want to get in the way. If all we can have is quick thrills, I’m okay with that.
It’s not like I could ever fall for a jock.

Seufz… Reihe beendet - ich möchte das nicht. Wie hab ich die Charaktere liebgewonnen. Besonders gern mochte ich an diesem Band die Annäherung von West & Jasper. Auch wie Beide für Wests Geschwister da sind 🥰 Das Thema Mobbing war heftig, aber ich fand es gut, dass es reingebracht wurde. Besonders gut hat mir noch der Epilog gefallen, als rauskam, was mit all den Charakteren weiter passiert ist. 🥰 ich bin zwar immer noch der Meinung, dass sie mir Foster zumindest noch in einer Szene hätten gönnen können, aber gut 🤭
TROPES – age gap – hockey romance – assistent coach x professor – fake dating – no third quarter break–up
The book starts head–first with the moment Jasper and Westly first meet. And West does everything but leave a good impression. These two don‘t start out by being besties, but quite soon they realize that their assumptions about each other are wrong, and they might feel something else toward one another than hate… Westlys and Jaspers approach is a more mature one than the one of the other couples. Not only because they are older, but they are also steadier in their lives. We also get to meet Ezra, one of Wests old teammates and the protagonist of Egotistical Puckboy. This is next to book 4 my favorite of the series. I also loved all the scenes with Wes‘ siblings, and how they and Jasper slowly get closer too.
