"But, despite the wrongness of it, this was comfortable. This was familiar. And it was as close to safe as either of them were going to get."
Is the heat in the room with us right now
There isn't really much chemistry or tension between Shane & Ilya. This is typical of books that are hyped up as having an "enemies to lovers" trope, where the characters hate each other for a whole of two seconds before they're consumed with lust or love. Their rivalry feels extremely forced, and their lack of connection throughout until the last act doesn't help at all And it gets old quick that they keep hooking up then leaving right after. Almost the same dialogue every time too which is supposed to signify their habitual rendezvous I suppose, but it started being so repetitive. I was completely shocked that 7 years passed since they met at some point, because it really felt like there was 0 progress and they still didn't know anything about each other.
Also find it weird that Ilya's personality is just being a sexy aggressive Russian, while Shane's is being a polite Japanese Canadian? Cringeworthy stereotyping and lazy writing. The smut isn't horrible and takes up most of the book, and I get why, the plot is just so bland. Also idgaf about hockey and this book made me not give af about it even more.

A collection of the pilot books for popular series, for those of us who love to follow a character's journey for as long as an author will let us! Some of the below series have heavily debated starting points and book read orders--in those cases the pilot was selected based on what seems to be the most popular approach.
