Kenna King, the hockey romance queen that you are! Bleacher Report was SUCH a good read. From the opposite of a meet-cute between Peyton and Hunter to their absolutely romantic moments throughout the story, I was completely captivated. The banter and chemistry between these two is the perfect combination of hilarious and spicy!
You truly can’t go wrong with fake dating + forced proximity. The absolute scream I let out when Peyton and Hunter finally gave in was probably hilarious to everyone around me. Ugh. Their tension was just so good and I was really rooting for them to end up together!
After reading Match Penalty, I was so ready for more Seattle Hawkeyes hockey! I loved all the overlapping moments between Peyton and the other WAGS and the female friendships and bonds they built. I’m totally hooked on this world and so excited for more!
