Maisy and Blaze are the newest feature in the SIG, and these two ladies will leave you breathless!

Maisy is a figure skater and Blaze is a speed skater. The two get hot and heavy early on in this book and already have a relationship of sorts going on. It's a nice change from strangers or friends to lovers, to be honest. But if you were thinking these would be soft, vanilla sex scenes - you'd be wrong! Tamsen is shockingly amazing at writing these scenes that they will make you blush (so maybe don't read them in public...?). I think this has to be the "hottest" book of the series so far, so be warned!

The "parents don't like that I'm gay" was something new from Tamsen, but I think it worked well. There needed to be some conflict in this book, and it fit perfectly! I didn't totally enjoy the opposites attract portion of this book, but it fits well enough within this story.

These characters do grow within this story, and I have give me praise to Tamsen for doing such. Having characters that try to change and grow was a lovely addition to tie this book in together. It really shows how much Tamsen is growing as an author - she keeps implementing new and better plot points in her books. Personally, I didn't like the personalities of the main characters (it's a personal problem, to be honest. They remind me of people I know, and you know how that is...). I think in relation to the story, they have the best personality for the scenario, but it just didn't bode with me. It's nothing against this story (because it's a great story, honestly, READ IT).

If anything, I would have liked a little more plot in this story. I found this to be a really heavy romance compared to a plot focused one. This can be great for some readers, but for others it might not work. Keep that in mind if you're going to read it - don't expect a crazy, complicated plot.

This might be my least favourite SIG novel (but they are all fighting for top spot, so it's a tight race for first place) if I had to place them in a list. It's still a fantastic book, I just liked the others more (I related more to the characters from the other books on a personal level).

Overall, I would definitely recommend this story to anyone looking for romance, F/F, or sports romance books. It's still top tier! Comparing them to Tamsen's other books (based on my own personal opinion) it's one of the best, just not MY favourite. It's definitely one of her best.

Four out of five stars.

Side Note: Who would have thought Olympics erotica would be a category of books? It's probably one of the few I never considered until Tamsen actually wrote these books.

I received a copy of this book courtesy of Tamsen Parker and Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. ( )

I really enjoyed the push/pull between Blaze and Maisy and particularly liked their very grown-up conversation at the end, but I am not really reading much erotica these days. I probably wouldn't have borrowed it if I had realized it was a novella (and would have missed out on some very sexy f/f which I have def not read enough of) but I really wanted more story and less sexyfuntimes.

If you like erotica, I would recommend. ( )

Two female athletes get it on during the Olympic Games, and end up falling for each other. I believed the attraction, but not the romance. ( )
