Nice tension in the story and writing, I d it.

This was an 8 chapter novelette length prologue/sampler of the upcoming novel 'Down in Flames', and as a sampler it did a good job. The focus was on the relationship, which suited me. The hockey theme was more of a starstudded backdrop than a main part of the storyline.

There was a bit of an M/F vibe to the characters, noticeable predominantly in their internal monologue. In spite of that I do want to read the continuation of Hudson and Jude's story. It might be a bit on the fluffy side compared to what I usually prefer, but hey these days anything that can hold my attention span deserves ample praise.2022-release-top-5 contemporary contemporary-romance ...more7 s AngelFire689 53 Read

I'm not going to rate this because it's not a complete story. I'm pretty sure the author confused the terms 'prologue' and 'prequel' because this is a prologue, not a prequel and I have no idea why she decided to make them be separate books. Making things more confusing is that the prequel is being sold in the same package as the actual story. That means somebody must have pointed out to her that it makes no sense to sell this prequel/prologue separately, since neither the prequel nor the follow up story can stand on their own.

Anyway, I recommend not skipping over this 'prequel' because it really is a prologue in every sense of the word. It shows the MCs first brief relationship and their break up and the author doesn't do a good job of adding in enough details about these things in the actual story (Down In Flames) so you'll be missing a lot of context if you skip over it.genre-contemporary-romance genre-mm-romance genre-sports-romance ...more6 s Book Binge: Reviews by Melissa DaSilva562 60

So I didn’t realize when starting this book that it was a prequel/prologue for the next book in the series. This book ends on a cliffhanger and seems it should be read before the next book in the series. It doesn’t look this author writes many MM stories but I don’t think that impacted the writing at all. I really enjoyed the start of Hudson and Jude’s story and I’m really interested in reading the rest of their story at some point. 5 s MaidaAuthor 13 books460

What a steamy snippet. Short but already showing depth of the characters and the upcoming growth. Looking forward to reading the full novel.contemporary ebooks first-person-pov ...more3 s Caz2,903 1,092

Useful and well-written intro to the characters of Down in Flames, but is only a teaser rather than a complete story.3-and-a-half-stars aar arc ...more3 s Christina Sturgill590 35
