Stick Around: A Punk as Puck Novel (Legends and Fury Book 1)

I loved meeting both Jonah and Micah in the other Punk as Puck novels so getting to read Jonah’s story was so amazing! I love him more after reading his story and loved his relationship with Alexio!! I love a little enemies to lovers vibes and Jonah and Alexio delivered in full force. The turn from casual hate sex to feelings and intimacy is always the best part! Alexio was the best at giving Jonah what he needed, even when Jonah wanted nothing more than to push everyone away. More than anything I love how understanding of each other’s feelings and needs they were, through the good and bad times. The found family connection between Jonah and his friends, and the new additions of Alexio, Vanya, and Nikos, is always a joy to read! Men being soft and vulnerable with each other is not showcased enough and I love these novels for showing that side of these men in all the best ways!! I can’t wait for my pre-order of Micah’s book to land in my kindle library so I can devour his story too!!

I was in need of a hot MM hockey book and got this book and really enjoyed it. I did not realize it was part of a series but it can still be read as a standalone. I did get a bit lost a few times keeping track of all the side characters since so many hockey players and not having read the other books but it didn't stop me from understanding everything. I think this book is really good with the disability representation with one of the MMC being blind plus a lot of the side characters having disabilities as well. I did have a hard time at first getting into the story..maybe because I hadn't read the other books but then I really fell in love with the found family and our MMCs especially Jonah. The author does an amazing job with making you fall in love with all the side characters and how much they help our MMCs. The spice was hot although it wasn't a crazy amount so it was still a really good balance of plot and spice. I was surprised when one of the main character did not have a big 🍆 since I am so used to all the books I read to have that so I was a mix of disappointed but at the same time happy that it made it more realistic and different from other books. Plus the other MMC kind of loved that and it made the scenes even more hot in a way haha I think this book was also really good at depicting the struggle of being a child of a cr@ppy and emotionally abusive narcissistic parent and the burden and guilt of having to take care of parents because of health issues when…
