The one that believes someone could love her without one day resenting her, without seeing her laundry list of needs and hurdles as burdens but rather as beautiful parts of what make her her.

Set on the sunny West Coast, these sexy stories bring the heat and heartfelt emotion as much as laugh-out-loud humor. Still, it’s really hard to watch Chul Min participate in that fight, where the fight only ends if one opponent dies or passes out, and rich VIP types bet on the outcome, just for funsies (this definitely gives me inadvertent Squid Game echoes, not gonna lie).Maybe in the past, Frankie would have gone for a guy like him, but since being burned too many times by people who learn about her diagnoses and see a problem, not a person, she’s wised up. Francesca – Frankie – Zeferino is the In-Game Social Media Coordinator for the Los Angeles Kings hockey franchise.

He's been in love with Frankie Zerferino, his team's social media manager for years, but can't act on it because they work together.Great representation and a fantastic read I’d recommend to all who love slow burn romances, sports romances, and sweet and soft heroes. This story about an autistic woman living with arthritis and chronic pain and a man who’s trying to find his way as a gentle soul in the often toxic masculinity of professional sports, is my love letter to the misfits, a celebration of embracing your adorkableness, discovering your found family, and finding healing and joy in being known and loved for who you are. Már az is sokat elmond, hogy bármennyire gyorsan haladtam vele, csak azért nem olvastam el egy nap alatt, mert szerettem volna minél több ideig kiélvezni.

Liese’s standalone sixth Bergman Brothers contemporary (following Everything for You) offers bighearted wish fulfillment. I'm used to the stank of our locker room, but postgame, the guys smell extra ripe, and I have a sensitive sniffer. In my mind, Han Hyo Joo may not be the strongest actress out there, but she is very solid, and she has a natural, warm, winsome sort of charm that suits Jung Hwa perfectly. Its so refreshing to see, and I loved seeing Frankies hardships and issues and how she got through them. I just hope that when she leaves the team and I tell her how I feel, she won't want to leave me behind, too.However, once I’d adjusted my lens to just accept that this is just part of the landscape, due to where Show wants to position itself, I found Chul Min’s actions understandable. A forbidden love sports romance about a nerdy, late-blooming hockey star, and his tough cookie coworker who keeps both her soft side and her autism diagnosis to herself. In fact, her comments about observing how other people engage with social media and how that helps her to do her job was relatable and refreshing. Because this isn't my first time around Willa, though, I know she and I are comfortable enough with each other that she'd shut me up or change the subject if she wanted to.

Her stories pack a punch of heat, heart, and humor, and often feature characters who are neurodivergent like herself. In addition to the iffy office politics of dating a player, as a person with autism and chronic pain, Frankie’s been repeatedly burned by people who couldn’t understand her needs, leaving her with her defenses up. Forced proximity, as everyone in Romancelandia already knows, wreaks havoc on ‘platonic’ friendships between people secretly in lust with each other. Ren Bergman is the star forward for the team and has secretly been besotted with Frankie from the day he met her. The books are so vastly different that I couldn’t even begin to tell you which one I liked better, but I can tell you that they’re both excellent.
