The Mistletoe Motive

Leonie

Here’s the thing about reading romance: it’s taught me an appreciation for a good grovel, but it’s also taught me to recognize a toxic character when I see one.

“I’m just saying, for all sorts of valid reasons, not everyone loves the holidays.”

Behind the safety of a screen, I’m my most sophisticated self—articulate, witty, sharp.

I relate to this soo much. The rink always was one place where I could easily shut up my brain for a while, either on the idea myself or watching others play. I miss that so much. 

Despite my grumbling about this late-night hockey game, I can’t help but smile as we enter and get our first glimpse of the rink. I love the atmosphere— the scrape and shoosh of blades on ice, the cold, dry air filling my lungs.
