Description

Myles has spent years watching his teammates on the Desert Ice find their forever, acting as the loyal friend and the unwavering support system while his own heart remained firmly on the sidelines. As the final piece of this tight-knit hockey family, he is ready for his own turn at a happily ever after. When a blast from his past reappears, the carefully constructed boundaries between friendship and something much deeper begin to crumble. Cooper is everything Myles has tried to keep at a distance, bringing with him a history that is complicated, messy, and impossible to ignore. As they navigate the high-stakes pressure of professional sports and the lingering tension of a second chance, they must decide if the risk of losing their friendship is worth the gamble of a lifetime. This friends-to-lovers story captures the ache of longing and the thrill of finally choosing each other. Featuring a complex love triangle and the electric atmosphere of the rink, this conclusion to the beloved series offers a satisfying, emotional payoff. It is a warm, heart-tugging celebration of finding love where you least expect it and realizing that sometimes, the person you have been looking for has been standing right beside you all along.

Great Read!

This was such a great way to end the series! It was awesome to read a few snippets about previous characters and get their updates. I'm day to see it end, but am looking forward to new things the author has in store for us!

Great addition!

4 - 4.5 I do love this hockey group and Myles and Cooper are a great addition to the series (and possibly conclusion??)! I was really happy to see Myles get his story and find his happiness and I think Cooper is the perfect match for him! Myles is a college hockey player in his final season and trying to figure out what will be next, he’s hoping he’s good enough for the NHL but he has a good amount of self-doubt. He gets a surprise when he sees Cooper, a friend (and crush) from high school and finds out he’s transferred for his final football season. The two easily reconnect but what Myles doesn’t know is that Cooper isn’t as straight as he thought he was. Nope, turns out he’s been experimenting with guys and just might be interested in Myles. It gets a little complicated early on when Myles starts dating another football player, but their true feelings for each other doesn’t stay hidden for long and quickly these two find themselves exploring those feelings together. I really did like these two together, it’s easy to feel their friendship foundation that easily and quickly becomes more. We get to see them both figure out what it is to be in a relationship since neither has ever really been in one before, it’s been quick hook-ups for them both. I thought that was especially sweet as they both try the romance thing – they definitely made me smile. They aren’t overly angsty or complicated, but do have things to figure out on their journey. Both of them are figuring out what…

Myles and Cooper I have really enjoyed this series. I'm glad to see Myles find his one. Especially after all his friends found theirs. Definitely recommend reading.
