Game Changer Book Review
Gosh, where do I begin. I was very apprehensive going into Game Changer by Rachel Reid as the hype in the bookish community is very high. However, I absolutely loved this. It's so wholesomely lovely with epic MM spice with a story that can resonate with a lot of the gay community.
Here's the blurb before I begin...
New York Admirals captain Scott Hunter takes his pregame rituals very seriously. When a particular smoothie precedes Scott's breaking his on-ice slump, he’s desperate to recreate the magic…and to get to know the sexy, funny guy behind the counter.
Kip Grady knew there was more to Scott’s frequent visits than blended fruit, but he never let himself imagine being invited back to Scott’s penthouse. Or kissed with reckless abandon—and more. What goes on between them is hot, incredible and frequent…but also only on Scott’s terms and always behind his closed apartment doors.
Scott needs Kip in his life, but with playoff season approaching, the spotlight on him is suddenly brighter than ever. He can’t afford to do anything that might derail his career or the public’s image of what a hockey captain should be. Kip is ready to go all in with Scott—but how much longer will he have to remain a secret?
My thoughts...
Star Rating: 4.5 / 5
Spice:5/5
As mentioned above, this book was deliciously spicy and packed with love & depth. Whilst you have to take the pacing of their relationship with a pinch of salt (just remind yourself it's fiction, it doesn't have to make much sense) their relationship is just adorably cute. I honestly can't stop thinking about Kip & Scott. I wonder if this will change when I move into Ilya & Shane's story??? We shall see...
Whilst predictable, the story itself in my opinion is worth your time as you folllow both main characters through inner demons and challenges whilst still getting spicy love scenes and intimate moments.
Whilst I do enjoy a romance, my preferences are much more on the darker side but this has really opened the lighter side of romance up to me and I will 100% be reading the rest of the series.
I have a strong feeling i've just babbled and I'm not usually one to re-read my reviews so if that's the case sorry (not sorry) for the babble.... hehe.
Go read this gay ice hockey romance and thank me later.
