    Haven’t seen the movie yet btw

    This might be because I already known Ryan Gosling is Ryland Grace, but he honestly seems like such a good choice? I mean a lot of Ryland’s lines with Rocky (and even in the flashbacks) have a lot of bland and dry, deadpan humor. And a maybe just a bit (read: a lot) of sarcasm here and there. I feel like in the movie his line delivery will be so solid because his humor and personality are similar to this already 😂

    The sneakiness in the movie will (hopefully) be unmatched.

    To be honest, thanks to all the romantasy novels in the past few years, I completely forgot that you actually can have a great fantasy story without any romantic plotline. How amazing that is??? No overly-used tropes, just an interesting magic system, alluring characters, great plot AND good banter and chemistry between the two main characters without it being romantic. What a treat!

    Finally, someone actually stands up to the hockey overlords, and somehow that's not even the most likable quality of Troy. Because that is obviously Harris.

    Finished because my OCD ass couldn't start the next one without finishing this one first... Fortunately, the Scott/Kip and more so the Ilya cameos made it worth.

    Ryan Price must be protected from the mean hockey overloads and anyone who tries to force him to be anything else but the teddy bear he is.

    When you take a situatiomship to the next level... for 10 freaking years, and you still need to question your love when also you know you are madly in love. Idiots. I love them.

    NOLAN AND MALLORY MENTION AHHHHHHH i love the aliverse. i love it when the books in a normal setting of the same author are in the same world! to be fair, bride and mate could still be in this same universe, just no one has ever mentioned vampires and werewolves before. could totally happen.

    Yeah, they are "Not in Love", for sure...

    I don't know how Ali does it, but I just have so much fun with her stories... And her books always have so much chemistry (pun intended, sorry)!
