I thought nothing could top Center Ice for me until I started this audio! It completely blew me away! ๐‰๐ฎ๐ฅ๐ข๐š ๐‚๐จ๐ง๐ง๐จ๐ซ๐ฌ did such a beautiful job on this book, I'm going to be squealing about it for a very long time! There was just something about the relationship between ๐‚๐จ๐ฅ๐ญ and ๐‰๐ฎ๐ฅ๐ž๐ฌ. It's so perfect. The build-up on their relationship was flawlessly done.

I freaken adored ๐‰๐ฎ๐ฅ๐ž๐ฌ character! We first meet her in Center Ice, where she comes off as snarky with zero filter. But the way she SHINED in this book was unreal. And the more you get to know her the more you can't help but fall in love with her character. You learn the way her mind works and why she comes off as cold sometimes. She's easily one of my favorite FMCs I've ever read about this year. Julia did such an incredible job on her character development! She was beautiful, strong, and hilarious.

๐‚๐จ๐ฅ๐ญ character was an absolute smoke show! This man helped check off all my favorite tropes! I LOVE a reformed playboy! Colt went from being known as the team playboy to "he only has eyes for her" and man was I obsessed with the way he was obsessed with Jules. He was jealous and possessive with a VERYYYYY dirty mouth!

But as much I loved his character my heart broke for Jules in the beginning watching her pine over him. He was her childhood crush. And I'm sure you can imagine how hard it was for her to watch her childhood crush be the playboy he was. ๐Ÿ˜ญ But VERY quickly this man did a complete 180 into such a swoon-worthy MMC! ๐—œ ๐—บ๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐—ป ๐—ฆ๐—ช๐—ข๐—ข๐—ก ๐˜„๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐˜๐—ต๐˜†!!! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ He gave Jules the man she deserved.

"๐‘ป๐’‰๐’† ๐’…๐’“๐’†๐’‚๐’Ž ๐’ˆ๐’Š๐’“๐’ ๐‘ฐ ๐’…๐’Š๐’…๐’โ€™๐’• ๐’Œ๐’๐’๐’˜ ๐‘ฐ ๐’˜๐’‚๐’” ๐’๐’๐’๐’Œ๐’Š๐’๐’ˆ ๐’‡๐’๐’“ ๐’‚๐’๐’… ๐’˜๐’‚๐’” ๐’๐’–๐’„๐’Œ๐’š ๐’†๐’๐’๐’–๐’ˆ๐’‰ ๐’•๐’ ๐’‡๐’Š๐’๐’… ๐’‚๐’๐’š๐’˜๐’‚๐’š."

I loved watching Colt finally "๐˜€๐—ฒ๐—ฒ" Jules after years of just viewing her as his best friend's little sister. Suddenly he couldn't stop himself from checking her out. It was so much fun to watch him suddenly notice her! I loved the way their relationship was built and built until they both caved! Because that "fuck it" moment between the two of them was iconic! I LOVED the chemistry between these two!



I'm so excited for the next book in the Boston Rebels series!! ๐Ÿฅฐ Julia is now an auto-buy author for me!!

I'm going to start by saying Julia KNOWS how to pick her narrators! Because these two brought this book to life sooo well! And I thought the same thing about Center Ice too!

They were perfectly cast. I've always been a HUGE fan of ๐‚๐จ๐ง๐ง๐จ๐ซ ๐‚๐ซ๐š๐ข๐ฌ ๐š๐ง๐ ๐’๐ญ๐ž๐ฅ๐ฅ๐š ๐๐ฅ๐จ๐จ๐ฆ. But them together as Colt and Jules PERFECTION ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜

๐‚๐จ๐ง๐ง๐จ๐ซ as Colt was insanely hot! His performance was INCREDIBLE! He truly nailed every part of Colt, his playboy side, his possessive growly side, as well as his tender side. I've said it before and I'll say it every time! BUT I FUCKING LOVE listening to this man growl "๐…๐ฎ๐ฎ๐ฎ๐ฎ๐ฎ๐œ๐ค๐ค๐ค๐ค!" I melt every time! MY gosh! Colt had a DIRTY mouth and Connor did indeed crushhhh those scenes ๐Ÿฅต๐Ÿฅต ๐…๐‹๐€๐–๐‹๐„๐’๐’๐‹๐˜!

๐’๐ญ๐ž๐ฅ๐ฅ๐š, girl, you were the perfect Jules. The second I started listening to this audiobook I immediately messaged a few girl friends blown away by how perfect Stella was as Jules. She made Jules ๐ฌ๐ก๐ข๐ง๐ž! She brought her character to life so beautifully. Perfectly unloading all of Jules fears and making us fully fall in love with Jules.

I'm just blown away by how perfect this audio was. I need more!! I already know this book will become a ๐œ๐จ๐ฆ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ๐ญ ๐ฅ๐ข๐ฌ๐ญ๐ž๐ง for me!
