Stick Side Book 6

Felix only wants two things:

1. To make music.

2. His best friend, Emery.

But he’s not willing to risk two decades of friendship for something more. Besides, a bout of writer’s block is preventing him from creating new material, and he’s got deadlines to meet. He doesn’t need any distractions—and Emery is the biggest distraction of all.

Emery only wants two things:

1. To play hockey.

2. His best friend, Felix.

He’s ready to risk it all for a shot at being together. While he should be concentrating on playing his best hockey so his team will grant him a contract extension, there’s no reason he can’t multitask.

With their careers at a crossroads, the timing for romance couldn’t be worse—but when Felix is forced to move in with Emery, will Emery finally convince him to take a chance at becoming the stars of their own game?

My Review: 4/5 Stars

Emery and Felix have been in love with one another for a very long time. Yet, neither want to actually tell the other how they feel in fear of ruining a longtime friendship. But it's obvious to anyone around them how the two of them feel about one another. They way the are together, it is more than clear. Emery is about to crack with his feelings. He had been waiting for Felix to say something. And there was a time when he thought he could see it in Felix's eyes before the moment passed. So Emery is gonna do it. But timing is not on either of their sides with both of their busy schedules. But things change when Felix wakes up in the middle of the night to someone in his bedroom. The trespasser flees but Felix is shaken. And when Emery learns what happened after he steps off the ice, he is there in a heartbeat to hold on to Felix. Now Emery will be there for Felix as he comes to gripes with what happened. Timing may not be on their side again to admit feelings since Felix is dealing with some ptsd and Emery is dealing with hockey and the start of his nonprofit, but it will only be a matter of time before the two of them finally admit that what they have is beyond friendship. Lot of great topics in this one in addition to the sweet romance between Emery and Felix. True friends to lovers story, these two couldn't be more perfect for one another. The foundation of their friendship only makes their romance that much sweeter. Bittersweet end to this series, but it was such a fun one overall!
