Reading this book felt like sipping a hot drink in front of a fire with a blanket and fuzzy socks.
It was so sweet, so wholesome, and probably the most realistic love story I’ve ever read. Secretly I hope something like this happens to me. :)
I have no other words, really. I just finished reading it, and am still floating off in the romance of small-town traditions, hockey, a golden retriever that unintentionally steals a lot of the spotlight, a sweet FMC and a gentle MMC. You can take or leave my advice, but I say read this book. Your heart might just feel lighter because of it.
(Unlike most of the books I read, this one was not an ARC copy. I had no obligation to write this review, but I chose to do it.)
(Book blurb below)

Book blurb:
My apartment floods...and now I'm staying at a cozy inn with a travel nurse across the hall who's only passing through.
Addie Harper is warm, funny, and impossible to forget.
She's also leaving when her temporary nursing assignment ends.
I should keep my distance.
Instead, my dog adopts her.
I introduce her to my favorite Tuesday night tradition.
Then she introduces me to flying sharks.
She fits into my life so naturally, I forget she has an expiration date.
I fall for her before I realize how little time we have left.
Because Addie has another contract.
Another town.
Another goodbye already planned.
The hardest loss of my life won't happen on the ice.
It'll happen the day she drives away.
I'm hoping she realizes she’s found a home here before the final horn sounds — because there might not be overtime.
