Tori and Raffi’s story had my emotions all over the place. It was funny, and emotional and I just loved it. She’s sworn off men, especially ones that play hockey, but Raffi was determined to change her mind when they met. Their chemistry was instant and so good. Tori is sassy and not afraid to speak her mind and go after what she wants and Raffi is honestly the most golden retriever guy I think I’ve ever read. So after one amazing night together, Raffi is all in, so when he gets a concussion from his game and ends up losing some of his memories, he’s upset but doesn’t think much of it as it comes with playing hockey. Only Tori is left with two pink lines and no Raffi. So when they run into one another later and he sees his mini me, he’s got to convince her that he’s all in once again, and to give him a chance. I really liked the character growth with them both and not only their families, but their found family as well. Just an all around feel good read.
