Icebreaker
Icebreaker | Hannah Grace
Anastasia Allen has worked her entire life for a shot at Team USA. A competitive figure skater since she was five years old, a full college scholarship thanks to her place on the Maple Hills skating team, and a schedule that would make even the most driven person weep, Stassie comes to win. No exceptions. Nathan Hawkins has never had a problem he couldn't solve. As captain of the Maple Hills Titans, he knows the responsibility of keeping the hockey team on the ice rests on his shoulders. When a misunderstanding results in the two teams sharing a rink, and Anastasia's partner gets hurt in the aftermath, Nate finds himself swapping his stick for tights, and one scary coach for an even scarier one. The pair find themselves stuck together in more ways than one, but it's fine, because Anastasia doesn't even like hockey players...right?

#LittensLoveRomance Ch.40-42: First, we finally get the interruption we all saw coming and Nate‘s dad and sister show up. Well that was awkward- at least it wasn‘t as embarrassing as it could‘ve been. Good for Stasie for standing up to his dad. And it felt like Nate might have even had a moment with his dad after…maybe. But I sense trouble on the horizon. ⬇️

StayCurious Stasie is being a bit dumb IMO - wanting to move back in with Aaron. I mean seriously girl - start trying to cut that cord. He is so toxic. And without Nate to balance her out she might tip back over to the negative side where she was. Bad idea all around. 6h
Kshakal 100% agree it is a bad idea to let Aaron back in! 6h

#LittensLoveRomance Ch.34-36: I‘m so glad their visit went well with Stasie‘s parents. I worry that Nate‘s dad is going to show up unannounced and ruin their Christmas though. I‘m waiting for them to say the L word and it‘s so sweet-even if it took a bit to get there (more difficult for Stasie). Also, I can‘t believe she‘s thinking of still living with Aaron after. I mean WTF? She‘s a glutton for punishment.

vonnie862 Eek! They are in love and Nate is thinking of kids!!! 2d
vonnie862 And I agree, what's with Stasie's obsession with moving back with Aaron? 2d
See All 8 Comments
OriginalCyn620 I‘m thinking that Lola is a big part of Stasie wanting to move back in with Aaron. But it‘s probably better for her mental health for her and Lola to get their own place! As far as Aaron, I get that they need to figure something out because if they change partners, they‘d have to start all over with someone new. But imma say it again…Stasie should become a solo skater! Then she wouldn‘t have to worry about all this crap, from Aaron or anyone else! 2d
julieclair Nate fell fast and hard. It‘s taking Stasie a little longer. But moving back with Aaron? No no no!!!! 2d
Read4life I agree with all of this. @OriginalCyn620 I‘m with you on Lola and Stasie moving out & Stasie going solo ⛸️. 2d
Read4life I also love Stasie‘s parents. 🤓 2d
willaful Aaron can't even be trusted to be her partner. I'm sure she won't be able to let him lift her again.

She may just not have the skills to be solo, however, not at the level she wants to be and at her age.

My mom was an adult ice dancer and finding partners was really hard! Way more women in skating then men.

#LittensLoveRomance Ch. 31-33: K, I can honestly say I‘m loving Henry. What a sweetheart! I‘ll be reading his book for sure. I can‘t believe Aaron was badmouthing Stasie to everyone, including her coach. I‘ve been around toxic people and it‘s nuts what some people get off on. I‘m so happy Nate and Stasie are official-ish now lol. Like they weren‘t before 🙄😄

OriginalCyn620 So I‘m listening to the audiobook, but if I were reading a physical copy, this is where I would‘ve thrown it across the room! Aaron is a douchecanoe with a capital D. Stasie‘s reasons for dating Nate are her own and absolutely none of his business! And the stuff about her parents was just low! I hope by the end of the book, Stasie has severed ties with him. On a happier note, I agree that Henry is the best! Didn‘t know he had his own book! 3d
vonnie862 @OriginalCyn620 same! I hope she ends all ties with Aaron and I am now looking forward to Henry's book. 3d

#LittensLoveRomance Ch.28-30: I think Nathan is my new book boyfriend. He‘s such a good guy and is funny even when he‘s drunkenly looking for Stasie in nothing but his boxers. I wonder why Summer is acting standoffish now. Because he‘s no longer chasing her? You snooze you lose, girly.

#LittensLoveRomance Ch.25-27: I can‘t believe Aaron is trying so hard to control Stasie, going so far as to limit what she eats. He‘s got sooo many issues and I can‘t believe the coach hasn‘t noticed anything. Aren‘t they there to help protect their skaters? Maybe they only care if they‘re winning. At least she‘s listening to Nate who has her best interests at heart. I do worry something is going to happen with Nate and his dad though.

willaful Anyone else thinks on her new diet Stasie will be able to do the jump? I hope she gets some professional help for her disordered eating. 5d
willaful I actually don't know if Brady is intended to be a good coach or not, but there is a long history of coaches taking terrible care of female athletes. Starvation is only the tip of the iceberg. :-( (edited) 5d
willaful More thoughts: I was irked by Stasie's comment about “letting every sliver of feminism shrivel up and die.“ It's not unfeminist to be a straight woman attracted to men, and I hate those casual digs that show up so often in romance.

And I was icked out by Nathan's mother-daughter adventure. Yikes! 🤢

maich @vonnie862 @willaful I agree with both you. New diet will make her stronger and she'll be able to do the jump. And I hope she'll find new partner. I wish I could see Nathan in leggings😋 That scene was funny. And then coach comments🤣 It was funny comment but I can feel her (I had problems with bladder infection all the time).🙈 5d

#LittensLoveRomance Ch.22-24: Ouch. I can‘t imagine what Stasie is going through after being dropped. How scary! That sport is intense. So now Nate has offered to be her skating partner - and keep his hands off her - so to speak. Ha! Good luck with that. These two are - respectfully - horndogs. We‘ll see how long their self imposed sex hiatus goes.

OriginalCyn620 Nate and Stasie being partners is gonna be so good! I‘m hoping for some The Cutting Edge vibes! And I don‘t think they‘ll keep their hands off each other long. And I‘m speaking as a former college horndog, so that‘s just my opinion! (edited) 6d

#LittensLoveRomance Ch.19-21: I knew it would be Aaron that would cause problems. I feel as though He did this to himself to bring Stasie back to him. What a weird manipulative dude.

I liked the therapy session. Stasie is smart and understands what‘s happening which is refreshing. Here‘s hoping she talks to Nate.

willaful I'm starting to wonder if Aaron's mother was scared by a hockey player in early pregnancy. 😆 Or more seriously, whether he has a mental illness. Stasie's eggshell walking around him makes me think.

Did anyone find the sex scenes here a bit OTT? I feel like so far it has all been within the realm of realistic, sex positive college life, but Nathan is going deep into romance hero mode and it's putting me off.

#LittensLoveRomance Ch.16-18: Wow. I knew this book was spicy but that was S-P-I-C-Y! I‘m sitting in the living room with my headphones on totally embarrassed even though no one can hear what‘s happening. 🪭 and of course now Nate wants exclusivity. How‘s he going to make that happen?

We finally get insight into what makes Stasie tick as she shares a bit of her childhood with Nate. And- surprising no one, Aaron is once more a jerk.

OriginalCyn620 The meme is hilarious! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 The spice level is off the charts but I‘m not hating it! I was glad to get a look into what makes Stasie tick, and was surprised and delighted that she opened up to Nate. And seemingly, it was easy for her to do so! I have to wonder between that and the jealousy from yesterday if she is falling hard but doesn‘t even realize it. 🤔 (edited) 1w
Graciouswarriorprincess Love that meme too! I was reading it at the public desk today in the library while at work and it was so spicy! My one colleague has read it so she was asking me where I was in the book and she said, oh you are at the really spicy sex parts! 😀😂 I did like how Stasie opened up about her planner and why it is so important to her. 1w

#LittensLoveRomance Ch.13-15: okay, maybe listening to this on the bus isn‘t such a solid plan. My cheeks must have been blazing during the Uber scene. I‘m all for some spice but maybe not on my morning commute. 😂🤔

So Nate wants more with Stasie than she‘s willing to give and then she gets bitten by the green eyed monster when she sees him with someone else. Hmmm - better sort yourself out Stasie.

#LittensLoveRomance Ch.10-12: Oh this back and forth between Stasie and Nate - they should get on with what seems inevitable at this point. But maybe not in the back of a filled Uber car. I liked how Nate got to see how tough Stasie‘s sport is and how great she is on the ice. That‘s getting to know her in itself. We‘ll see where things go from here but I‘m sensing feelings in the future.

OriginalCyn620 I loved how Nate jumped into action when Stasie got hurt! That was pretty swoonworthy! And that he went to the rink early just to see her…he‘s got it bad. And I know we‘re not far into this book, but I‘d like to see more ice action like we did today. 🏒⛸️ 1w

#LittensLoveRomance Ch.7-9: who would have thought, the icebreaker game had the desired effect. At the party, Stasie and Nate get way up close and personal. And then…she runs. And avoids. And the next time he sees her she‘s in bed with another guy. Innocently it‘s true, but this is about optics. And it could look like she goes from guy to guy - just like Aaron suggested. ⬇️

StayCurious Not that there‘s anything wrong with that as long as everyone is on the same page. Is Nate on the same page? Hmmm. Looks like we might have some drama after all. 2w

OriginalCyn620 @vonnie862 @StayCurious Yes, “accidental oral sex” was hilarious, as well as Ryan‘s response. I am really liking him! And no doubt there will be drama, but Nate was painted as a player in those first few chapters, so if he gets upset about Stassie being in bed with another guy, does he really have that right? But really, how difficult would it have been for Ryan to hop out of her bed before the video call? 2w

#LittensLoveRomance Ch.4-6: Seriously,Aaron is a mystery. What is wrong with him? Does he have feelings for Anastasia? At least the truth came out about what really happened with the rookie hockey player and the freshman. I wonder if they pressed charges for vandalism? I like how cool and drama free Stasie&Ryan are with each other. It‘s refreshing actually bc I thought for sure there‘d be angst somewhere there. But again-why is Aaron such a prick?

vonnie862 Anastasia and Ryan's relationship is interesting. They are supportive of each other but they bang? I feel like this will cause drama once one of them settles down. But hey, if they make it work 🤷‍♀️ 2w

OriginalCyn620 Aaron is being a real douchecanoe! I think @BethM and @willaful made good observations - it could be jealousy or ambition, or both! He needs to cut it out, though. I do really like that Stassi and Ryan are both on the same page about their relationship. But they do seem to be genuine friends and they obviously care about each other. They seem pretty mature!

#LittensLoveRomance ch1-3: oh those randy college kids - sleeping around at parties - that wasn‘t my college experience lol. But I was a major introvert and I‘m not here to judge. Okay, maybe a little. I totally get that I am not the norm haha.

With their rink trashed, what are they going to do? I wonder who‘s behind the vandalism. And what‘s up with moody Aaron?

OriginalCyn620 Yes, what is up with Aaron? His being cold all of a sudden was odd. And I am curious as to who trashed the rink and why! As for the sleeping around, yes it is normal for a lot of college kids, but probably even more so when you‘re talking about athletes. Not saying all college kids and all athletes are like that, but for many, the two seem to go hand in hand. 2w

vonnie862 I was an introvert too so I didn't have this kind of lifestyle back in college. I too think that Aaron might have feelings for her. 2w
Graciouswarriorprincess I didn‘t have this type of college life. I do love the college meme though. These kids are real but still. Also, what college kids have the kind of money that they all seem to have. I was so poor in college! 2w
willaful @Graciouswarriorprincess Perhaps because it's mostly kids from wealthier families who can afford athletic training? Equipment and coaches etc. is very pricey!

I'm also guessing Aaron feels less platonic about Anastasia than she thinks. Though I won't be remotely surprised if he winds up with her friend he's always butting heads with.

Ryan seems very nice, I hope the book doesn't dispose of him in an ugly way.

Anastasia is a competitive figure skater, her skate partner, Aaron, has far too much control over their relationship. Nate Hawkins is the team captain of the hockey team, girl magnet but overall good guy. Nate and Anastasia have no choice but to share the arena after a misunderstanding . Sparks fly, rumours are spread and tensions rise.
The inner monologues of both MCs is funny, it shows their thought processes which is refreshing.

For #decemberdreams and ice skating my brain went right to this booktok romance classic. Did this have much plot? No. Did I like the characters? Not loads. Did the spicy bits do much for me? Also no, but I have to say I had a good time reading it. #wintergames #snowangels @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

Icebreaker wasn‘t the type of book that will have you weeping (fanning yourself – definitely) but it will get those gears moving and give you a lot to think about when it comes to love, life, relationships, friendship, hopes, and dreams.

3.5⭐️

Steamy! But my favorite parts were the friendships and moments where there was depth.

I have a strange love for sports romance books, and this was a phenomenal one. Nathan and Stassies journey throughout from frienemies to lovers was amazing. Anastasia had some amazing character growth throughout, and Nathan is the epitome of a man written by a women. SO many different small stories fit together to create this beautiful book.

It‘s started off waaaaay too smutty for me. And the characters felt so childish. Then they grew on me and I got swept away in the story. Didn‘t like the Epilogue, but otherwise a pick.

Spicy🥵 like, very. Confused as to why this was called a “hockey romance” by so many people. There was like 2% hockey in this book. And 98% sex. Not nearly as good as I hoped it would be. But still enjoyed it. I like my spice.😜

I tried to get into this book, but I couldn't. I don't know if it was the characters or the mindless plot of the book. I rated this book a 1 out of 5 stars. This book is the sixteenth book completed for #RushAThon readathon hosted by @Andrew65

Andrew65 Oh no 😫 Well done on finishing it 👏👏👏 7mo

I‘m turning into such a romance reader - they‘re the only books that fix my brain after grad school reading. I decided to give this booktok classic a go without super high expectations as I hate sport, but I was pleasantly surprised. It took a while to get into (swear there were 10x as many side characters as we needed?) but I got so invested and really really cared by the end. I‘m definitely going to read the sequel so have to call it a pick.

I got 80 pages in, but I was just bored—and not because there wasn‘t enough spice or too much sports—the spice was nice and there wasn‘t nearly enough of the sports the main characters are so passionate about. It was mostly partying and college drama that I just didn‘t find engaging enough to continue with.

As someone who has been to a party or 2 at the hockey house in college, I have no idea how anyone could survive spending as much time in that house as they did.
I liked all of the characters except Aaron. He super sucks. You could tell that Stassie was trying to be a "cool girl". But, I still really enjoyed this book. Yes, super spicy, but I think the story here was solid and pulls at your heartstrings a little.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Blimey.
That was deceptively steamy 🤣🤣
I was expecting a cute little romance from the cover. It was pure smut in parts 🤣🌶
I loved Nate, but I couldn't abide Anastasia. She was a horrible character with no redeeming qualities. I am waiting on my boy Henry to have his story told, he was the most likeable character by far.
It was a decent read, but I wouldn't recommend it.
