This book is fun. It's not fabulous, it's not earth shattering, but it's fun. And there's nothing wrong with that. As I write this, it's summer and most of the readers I know are stocking up on fun reads for travel and beach reads. If you're a contemporary fan with a penchant for hockey, then this is a great one to throw in the beach bag or plane carry-on for a holiday flight.
There's a good focus here on the process of being a professional hockey player - not necessarily the technique of the game, but the baggage that comes along with being a public entity with a private life. It's accompanied by some twists - the book sets you up to believe one thing about a few characters before showing you another side to them - keeps the book interesting and the pacing well.
I bought the chemistry between them and flew through MAYBE THIS LOVE in a day, before immediately recommending it to my best friend, for whom hockey books are catnip.
