Bailey has found a gem in Orion. This novel is good reading. I'm glad Bailey has opened her eyes to see the real Nolan. He is a dirty snake, not a team player. He used Bailey and now he realized he had a good woman. Now his rival Orion has finally been able to tell Bailey how he actually feels. So what if he helped her out to start off with. They are a great couple together. Make Nolan pay for trying to break y'all up.

Dating My Ex’s Rival Hockey Captain is the perfect mix of tension, romance, and emotional drama. The chemistry between the main characters felt natural, with witty banter and heartfelt moments that kept me invested from beginning to end. I loved the hockey setting because it added excitement and intensity to the story without overshadowing the romance. The captain’s protective yet confident personality made him impossible not to love. While some plot twists were predictable, the emotional connection and strong character development made this an entertaining and addictive read overall.

I love this story line this is an amazing story... Bailey and Orion are the sweetest couple im glad she has finally came to her senses! Orion is a good man and its obvious that he loves her and she loves him.... Nolan needs his *ss kicked and someone to make him look bad to the world like he did to Bailey he is a selfish self centered ****ard who needs to be taught a lesson and the people who talked ***t about her owe her an apology!!

Review after the novel completion

I really enjoyed reading Bailey and Orion's story. It was cute. With enough twists to keep me interested and coming back. Makes me wish I could find a man like Orion. However, I didn't really like the last few chapters that focused on Talia and Marcus. It just seemed like a completely different type of story and type of writing. Don't get me wrong, I like a good hot and steamy book. But Baily and Orion was more of a sweet romance. Then suddenly there is Talia and Marcus with explicit sex scenes & erotic toys. It was just a weird jump in genres. Oh, Talia and Marcus had a good story. Just maybe should have been a stand alone.

All around I like the book, the story line was easy to get into. You don’t get side tracked from one chapter to another it just blends evenly. I honestly can’t stand how Nolan is though figured he be more a sad poor pitty me ex but he’s the complete opposite and Orin is so kind and loving for Bailey exactly what she needed in her life. He’s there for her, helps her, comforts her and then some. They truly are the best part of this book and I can’t wait to finish it.

It’s a great book, so far. I hope Nolan gets what he deserves — the absolute worst of everything! Bailey needing to remember how to be loved is realistic because she can be messy and her attempts to love others more than herself actually hurts the people who care about her. That’s something that happens with a lot of people with the same trauma as hers. But it also doesn’t excuse the fact that she HAS hurt them. The book, itself, could do with a lot of proofreading: the names get mixed up and there are quite a few typos. The chapters are also really short and three of them could’ve been one chapter. Good story though, I hope it continues like this as I keep reading.

I my gosh I love this sortie so so so much it is one of my favorites. Nolan is really pissing me off right now with how he is acting and I feel so bad for Bailey it’s not fair to her. Orion is the bet thing that has happened to her and I love that she if now seeing that she deserves happiness too. And I just love that her bakery is working out good.I can’t wait for continue reading,

So glad Bailey finds her strength to stand up and fight. This book is a page turning emotion filled love story. It just keeps getting better and I find myself not being able to put it down. I just know when it ends I'll probably be wanting more. Hoping that maybe there's a sequel, too soon to tell. Just excited to see where the pages take us next. Rooting for Orion and Bailey to come out on top as they should!

A novel to be cherished. The emotions, the love, danger and thinking out the box maneuvers. I loved it all. I am a firm believer in Karma so I loved the justice aspects. The expressing of gratitude, love, vulnerability and fighting for what you believe in is an amazing reminder of what a great partnership and teamwork entails. Looking after our relationships and growing together keeps us growing old together. So many memories that keep the relationship strong. Loved it all
