Miller “Buck” Butterson has been banging his way through life ever since a puck to the face fixed his messed up front teeth, and he was drafted into the NHL during his first year of college. After five years of deflecting goals on the ice and scoring them with puck bunnies across the Continental US and parts of Canada, Miller is ready for a girlfriend. A real girlfriend of the non-bunny variety. One he takes on dates and doesn’t jump into bed with after five seconds of conversation. Miller thinks he’s found that woman in his teammate’s sister. Except, unlike Alex Waters, center, team captain and all round nice guy—who happens to be dating his step-sister—Miller’s manwhore reputation is well earned, and not blown out of proportion by the media. Beyond that minor detail, Miller doesn’t know the first thing about having a girlfriend. But he’s determined to make it happen. What he doesn’t take into account is the amount of time and effort relationships require, or that constantly letting bunnies take selfies with him to post all over social media isn’t going to win him any points in the boyfriend department. Miller learns—not so quickly—that if he wants to make Sunshine “Sunny” Waters fall for him, he going to have to do a whole lot more than show her his stick skills in the bedroom. Length: 11 hours and 18 minutes

Better than Pucked, but still not very good. This is an MF romance that is told entirely from the perspective of the guy, which I've never read before and didn't particularly care for? I prefer romances with both perspectives.
I also don't care for romances where they're kind of already together? Buck and Sunny already like each other, and we don't see the buildup to their romance. And I want to see a buildup to a romance. Sunny is incredibly infantilized, which is annoying. She's also ~not like other girls. *gag* She doesn't swear, which is fine. I try not to swear much either. But when they use stupid words in place of swearing like saying "doody" like a four year old? No.
Alex continues to be a testosterone filled asshat. Violet continues to be gross and vulgar and annoying. Her "oversharing" was just her being gross and vulgar, and Buck was also gross and oversharing, and why are you talking to your sister so much about your sex life? Can we also STOP WITH THE FUCKING SLUT SHAMING, HELENA HUNTING? YOU'RE GROSS.
Ummm. Will I continue to read? Unfortunately. Am I happy about it? No.
