What They're Saying
Critics Review
“Graziadei’s empathetic first novel is richly plotted and handles its gay themes and hockey action well, making it a natural read-alike for Ngozi Ukazu’s Check, Please! #Hockey (2018). The author shoots and scores!” –Booklist
“A thoughtfully rewarding read for those who need one most.” –Kirkus Reviews
“Debut author Graziadei clearly knows the sport, but even readers who don’t will enjoy a tale that’s more than just enemies-to-lovers … A complex read.” –Publishers Weekly
