Make Your Play: A Marriage of Convenience Hockey Romance by Cali Melle
medium-paced
4.5
NASH F*CKING SIMMONS EVERYONE.
Talk about a man down bad.
MYP is now my favourite Cali Melle book. Everything about this one was just so amazing. I was in a bit of a slump before I picked this one up, and just like I expected, it brought me out of the slump.
Riley is a fiercly independent person who rarely asks for help. Although she has a support team around her, she's used to doing things on her own. However, when she starts to have some health problems during her pregnancy, she has no choice but to slow things down.
Enter Nash; brother of Luna, aka Riley's best friend, who has been in love with Riley for years. Nash wants nothing more than to help Riley. Not only does he want to be part of her life, but also part of her baby's, even though it's not his. Nash makes it known that he's not going anywhere, but is it enough for Riley to finally let him in?
When I tell you I swooned while reading this one, I mean I f*cking melted into a puddle on my floor. I have such a soft spot for Cali's books and Nash & Riley have officially become my favourite CM couple.
