Luke Anders feels left out as all of his best friends and teammates have found their life partners. He's not sure if it will ever happen for him when he ends up meeting Natalie during a cousin's wedding in Mexico, and the two hit it off immediately striking up a long distance romantic connection. A wild night in Vegas ends up with rings on the their fingers and as they try to figure out what to do next, PR needs come first and is it weird to date your wife?

This was thoroughly enjoyable. Luke was always a bit of a background character in the other Sleet books but I'm so glad he got his own book and his own love story. Going into this I actually thought that Luke's romantic interest was going to be Steph, Jackson's sister, and we would have the trope of 'brother's best friend' but instead we got 'accidental marriage' and I was here for it.

I really like the relationship and connection between Luke and Natalie. It felt very real, nothing was forced and I also like the maturity in their relationship and how with many things, they took it in their stride. I believed in them and I rooted for them and I loved how Luke was always so in the relationship, as was Natalie. I'm not sure if we could make the blip at the end a third act breakup as it wasn't a very long separation - a matter of a couple of hours- but i actually think we didn't even need it. And the scene in the board meeting was a bit dramatic and farcical for me, as there is no way that something like that would ever prove you are able to run a company (your actual work does that?!).

I do think you can see a big improvement in the quality and control of SJ Tilly's writing in Sleet Princess in comparison to the other Sleet books published several years ago. The flow of the story was so much betetr as we jumped between each character with Luke and natalie continuing where we left off instead of backtracking and repeating moments in ways I had seen in other books. The sexy scenes were hot and passionate, with also some added humour with the Blizz element (IYKYK).

And just to add I really appreciate the female friendship at the core of this series and how even Natalie who was a brand new character for readers and the other characters was accepted into the flow by the girls, and made to feel welcome. I think moments like this are just so important especially as in some romance books there can be a women Vs women vibes where this series is the compete opposite and I've always loved it.

I'm sad this series is over as I've really enjoyed my time with the Sleet team (lowkey want a jersey) and now I just have to decide what my next SJ Tilly series will be.
