Delay of Game by Ari Baran

4.0

I enjoyed this one.  I tend to be quite leery of hockey romance, because I’ve read several where they really don’t understand hockey AT ALL, and it really takes me out of the story when there are errors.  I only found one in this book, but it was pretty minor, so I’m not even going to say what it was.

I’m usually not a fan of friends to lovers, but I did like this one.  And I did find Zach’s rational for him and Nate to hook up to be pretty funny (we have to do it for the team!).  However, the fact that neither of them could actually talk to each other about their feelings was incredibly frustrating. Miscommunication is one of my most disliked tropes, so I just found it really annoying.

Overall, solid hockey romance and I will definitely be reading the next in the series when it comes out.
