This is my second book I have read by Monty Jay and I swear to god she has this way of writing that is like casting a spell on you! As I started reading this I was shocked and thought no no no I don’t like the way this was headed….confusion was an understatement. But, like always, I had the little voice say “go on keep reading I swear you won’t be disappointed”. And I am NOT disappointed one bit! Holy ****! I was not prepared for the freaking story MJ packed into Love & Hockey.

I have to say first and foremost JR is my dream dad, this man is such a beautiful character and I was literally close to screaming if he didn’t have a happy ending! So, thank you for that Epilogue giving that man a woman!

The heavy topics were of course on point with MJ’s writing and had me wiping my wet eyes. The way that everything is laid out seems so believable and organic that you can’t even hate Bishop when he’s doing all that foolish stuff to Valor. Because you get it, you get why he is afraid.

Valor, what a name and what a character she was! Her growth was pure beauty to read. Just so touching and I was cheering for her when she said what she said to Bishop at the apartment with Nico and Malakai. The girl is a boss and I loved her fierceness even when she felt weak, she didn’t crumble. She stood up straight even when she was falling apart.

A flipping great read! The spice was off the charts and I cannot wait to see what happens next in the series!
