Summary
Two childhood friends。 Two broken hearts。 One impromptu road trip to get away from everything。 That’s all this was supposed to be。 Afterall， I’ve been living in the friend zone for years now。
But hockey heartthrob Jasper Gervais isn’t looking at me like a friend anymore。 And he isn’t touching me like one either。
To his fans， he’s the handsome， talented athlete on TV。 But to me he’s still the lost boy with sad eyes and a heart of gold。
The man I’ve loved in secret for years。
So when my life falls apart on my wedding day， it only makes sense that he’s the one to swoop in and save me。 And when his world comes crashing down around him， I’m there to return the favor。
But the more time we spend alone， the more Jasper doesn’t feel like a friend at all。 He feels like everything I’ve ever wanted and thought I could never have。
Our feelings aren’t straight forward though。 They twist and turn around the pain of his past and the reality of my present。
Jasper Gervais acts like he wants me。
But after years of turning me away， he’s going to need to prove it。

well this one took me over a month to read。ended up listening to it instead and it did not disappoint。 this one is definitely my second fave of the serious （no book will ever top heartless） but it was still amazing。 i completely recommend。one problem， i so wish they had a canadian hockey player as Jaspers narrator that would’ve been so good ahhaha

HOLY FREAKIN CRAP I FINALLY FINISHED THIS FREAKIN BOOK GOSHHHHHHHHHH。 AFTER A CENTURY FR。 and i'm not even gonna lie though i skimmed the hell out of it so idk if you could even call it reading 💀this books was seriously not it。 like the first two were mediocre at best， but man， we really went down hill with this one。like yall know me， i'm a whore for romances。 that's like all i read lol， but when a book is JUST romance？？？ it's a no from me。 i need some type of plot。 when i tell you there was not HOLY FREAKIN CRAP I FINALLY FINISHED THIS FREAKIN BOOK GOSHHHHHHHHHH。 AFTER A CENTURY FR。 and i'm not even gonna lie though i skimmed the hell out of it so idk if you could even call it reading 💀this books was seriously not it。 like the first two were mediocre at best， but man， we really went down hill with this one。like yall know me， i'm a whore for romances。 that's like all i read lol， but when a book is JUST romance？？？ it's a no from me。 i need some type of plot。 when i tell you there was nothing？？ there。 was。 nothing。 they went on a roadtrip。 that was seriously the entire plot。 and their pov's were absolutely unBEARABLE TO READ。 i'm all about pining， but when that is your entire personality？ i'm gonna pass。 sloane was literally so boring。 she was wet cardboard。 her entire and i mean， ENTIRE personality was having daddy issues and being in love with jasper。 there was not a single interesting thing about her。 i'm so sorry that's so harsh， but it had to be said nonetheless。 also her saying "facts？" i hate HATEEEEE when authors put modern slang in books。 i wanted to bleach my eyes。 jasper was wet paint。 his entire personality was also daddy issues， and pining after sloane。 which i guess makes these two perfect for each other。 he also really just tried wayyyyyyyy too hard to be the "bad boy。" it had me absolutely laughing out loud at some points with how ridiculous he sounded。 "i'm broken。 and sloane is perfect。 she is so shiny。 i don't want to tarnish her。" like she's a grown ass woman not a piece of jewlery？ bold of you to assume you have that much power dude 🤨 also him assuming that she always imagined him every time she slept with someone else？ really reallyyy irked me。 that ego is way too big。 and finally， the tattoo of the ballet dancer？ （she is a ballet dancer） that he got for sloane because it "looked like her？" that's so creepy。 i understand they were like bffs but what。。。。。 pls tell me i'm not the only one who finds this absolutely terrifying。 there were so many things wrong with jasper bro this is just the tip of the iceberg。 😭the only good parts of this book were the cameos of summer， rhett， willa， and cade。 and even those were boring。 so you can imagine how the rest was。 i'm just glad i'm done。i'm finishing with a quote， not because i liked it， but because it was so corny that my body had a physical reaction that almost shut it down entirely。 'i turn my head in， my lips dusting across her forehead。 “yeah。 i saw you， Sloane。 i noticed you too。 didn’t know what made me look up there that day。 had no clue what it all meant。”"what did it mean？""that when it comes to you， i'm powerless。"GAG GAG GAG SOMEONE THROW ME IN A DUMPSTER THIS IS A CRY FOR HELP。 。。。more

A really cute book。 Friends to lovers， even tho sloane loved jasper for most of her life。The development between sloane and jasper is so good。 It took both of them way too long， because they were scared。 Easy book to read。

"My heart is in slut mode" is the greatest thing I've ever read。I really liked Sloane in this book （love me a runaway bride）， and I liked Jasper even though he frustrated me。 What felt a little out of place to me was the spice。 I quite enjoyed seeing their relationship progress but thought that the type of sex and dirty talk didn't suit their story。 Also thought it was a bit of a weak excuse on Jasper's part to have waited as long as he did to express his interest， especially after he had made a "My heart is in slut mode" is the greatest thing I've ever read。I really liked Sloane in this book （love me a runaway bride）， and I liked Jasper even though he frustrated me。 What felt a little out of place to me was the spice。 I quite enjoyed seeing their relationship progress but thought that the type of sex and dirty talk didn't suit their story。 Also thought it was a bit of a weak excuse on Jasper's part to have waited as long as he did to express his interest， especially after he had made a name for himself。Three books in， Papa Harvey is definitely my favorite character in the series。 。。。more

Runaway bride， sports romance， AND childhood friends to lovers？！ Say less。Jasper and Sloane’s story was the best in the series so far。 I really enjoyed their character development and the road trip to Violet’s with be living rent free in my mind for the foreseeable future 🔥

Small town， childhood friends to lovers， one bed， and a hockey romance。 It’s safe to say Elsie Silver knows what she’s doing。 I loved the dynamic of Jasper and Sloane’s friendship and how their story blossomed from there。 Highly recommend！

I really wanted to love this one as much as the first two。 But I just couldn’t。 I’m not a huge fan of friends to lovers most of the time。 But add in how long they’ve been pining for each other。 The gross insect jokes and the draw out of it all I just could not。 I skipped ahead to make sure Beau was ok then I DNF’d this one。 Hopefully book 4 is better than this mess。

“For too long， I was soft， demure little dove。 And then they burned me。 Scorched me。 Turns out I’m a dragon and I’m fed the f*ck out with boys and their bullsh*t”Some books leave you with a million things to say。 Some books leave with not a single one。 Others leave you with so much that you can’t even say anything because don’t even know where to start。 But I’ll try。 Because Powerless is the latter。 Because Powerless is that book that will walk with me through life。 A steady companion， reminding “For too long， I was soft， demure little dove。 And then they burned me。 Scorched me。 Turns out I’m a dragon and I’m fed the f*ck out with boys and their bullsh*t”Some books leave you with a million things to say。 Some books leave with not a single one。 Others leave you with so much that you can’t even say anything because don’t even know where to start。 But I’ll try。 Because Powerless is the latter。 Because Powerless is that book that will walk with me through life。 A steady companion， reminding me why I love to read。 Why some characters mean more to me than so many people I’ve met in my life。I thought nothing could surpass Heartless。 I was wrong。 Powerless has me at a loss for words but overflowing with emotion。I could tell you this is the story of a little girl with so much but not enough。 I could tell you this is the story of a boy who had enough but lost it all。 I could tell you about the secrets whispered on a rooftop。 I could tell you how pain shapes us， how love redeem us。I could tell you about a bride that laughed while she ran away and the boy that held her hand。 I could tell you that the best things in life are cheap but cost so much to get。 I could tell you。 Or you could read it and see it for yourself。Sloane might be his person。Jasper might be her person。But this book is… mine。What’s inside:🖤friends to lovers🖤sports romance🖤small town🖤forced proximity🖤runaway bride🖤road-trip🖤one bedAdult。 5 stars ⭐️ but honestly， my heart is there too。 ⭐️ 。。。more

I feel like this one is the ‘best’ in the series but I’m not sure if I agree， it could be the friends to lovers trope， it’s never been my favorite。 Still good though

JASPER。 FUCKING。 GERVAIS。 that's all i have to say。i LOVED this book。 from the minute i picked it up， i was hooked （i would have finished it in one sitting if i wasn't so busy， trust me）。 i think sloane is one of my favorite fmc's ever， her energy really is so fun and i enjoyed every moment with her。 jasper。。。。 what can i say？ He was a doll。 an absolute doll that it makes me sad when i realize he doesn't actually exist lol。there is one thing though。 just one small thing。 i hate how they constant JASPER。 FUCKING。 GERVAIS。 that's all i have to say。i LOVED this book。 from the minute i picked it up， i was hooked （i would have finished it in one sitting if i wasn't so busy， trust me）。 i think sloane is one of my favorite fmc's ever， her energy really is so fun and i enjoyed every moment with her。 jasper。。。。 what can i say？ He was a doll。 an absolute doll that it makes me sad when i realize he doesn't actually exist lol。there is one thing though。 just one small thing。 i hate how they constantly joked with each other about being cousins。 like i know they weren't but the effect is still there。 i'm all swoony over them and then someone mentions that they're "cousins" and im just like ARGH why do you have to keep saying all that。 it wasn't as icky as some other ones ive read （underneath the sycamore tree im talking about you！） but i was still like WHY does this have to be a continuous point in the book。 another thing is there's like no plot besides both of them。 like we see his hockey for 。5 seconds， and she does ONE dance， but aside from that it's mostly them in the car fucking， or in a hotel fucking， or somewhere else fucking。 and dont get me wrong that's GREAT but I kind of wanted to know。。。 more。 Like i feel like I knew nothing about either one of them。 but i still loved it。 4。5/5 and 4/5 for spice。 it was **chefs kiss** 。。。more

This book was so close to home。 Connecting to Jasper and seeing his and Sloanes love grow and build their own strength was powerful。 I went through all the emotions with both characters！ Highly highly recommend！ Becoming one of my go to authors。 Soo looking forward to Reckless！ Winter need a happy ending with love。

BeautifulI thought with it being fairly slow pace I wouldn't get invested。 Along with how many side characters there are， which usually irritates me。 Though， this book is in a series and I haven't read the ones before。 The characters were still good and it wasn't confusing。Main characters both had layers， needed peeling back slowly。 I loved the vulnerability you gave them， more so MMC， but FMC went through it waiting。 Enjoyed。 BeautifulI thought with it being fairly slow pace I wouldn't get invested。 Along with how many side characters there are， which usually irritates me。 Though， this book is in a series and I haven't read the ones before。 The characters were still good and it wasn't confusing。Main characters both had layers， needed peeling back slowly。 I loved the vulnerability you gave them， more so MMC， but FMC went through it waiting。 Enjoyed。 。。。more
