Hockey Guys #4
Beck & Forest
This book made me so happy I don’t even know where to start. It’s funny in that soft, adorable way that sneaks up on you, and the characters grabbed my heart from page one. Sarina Bowen always writes amazing M/M hockey romances, but this one felt extra special.
Beck absolutely stole the show for me. He’s quirky, sweet, a little chaotic, and somehow the most lovable human ever. Every time he put himself down, it hurt, because he’s such a bright light. Watching him fall for Forest—and for Forest’s whole little world—was beautiful.
Forest broke my heart in a quieter way. He’s a single dad, tired, scared, and carrying a lot of old hurt. His backstory is painful, and it explains so much about why he keeps Beck at arm’s length. But seeing him slowly realize how much Beck means to him, and how much Beck already fits into his life, was incredibly moving.
The humor in this book is perfect. The beer‑league hockey scenes, the bar antics, Charlie bonding with Beck, the naked‑chest cheering moment—everything had me smiling. And the emotional beats hit just as hard. The Covid scene, the heartbreak, the big NHL moment… all of it landed.
I loved every page. The banter, the warmth, the found family vibes, the slow healing, the way these two men finally choose each other. Beck and Forest are the kind of characters you want to hug and protect. This story reminded me why I love romance: it’s about hope, second chances, and finding someone who sees your worth even when you can’t.
A total delight. Five stars, easily.
