Ruthless King

The push and pull kept me hooked, but I wondered if the emotional stakes might become overwhelming for some readers. Did the pacing help or hurt the story’s realism?

The sports backdrop added excitement but also a layer of high-pressure environments. I’m curious whether the author has personal ties to hockey or chose it for its intensity.

Her struggles felt authentic and made me think about my own past. Did anyone else connect with her journey of healing and self-discovery?
