Maple Hills Book Series
Icebreaker (Maple Hills #1) (2022)
Why we love it:
- Enemies to lovers trope that makes for a classic romance
- The underlying vulnerability in the characters makes them relatable to the reader
Icebreaker follows Anastasia Allen and Nathan (Nate) Hawkins. She’s a competitive figure skater who has always wanted to be a part of the US figure skating team, and he’s your typical jock who plays ice hockey. They have nothing in common apart from the ice they share at the local rink. There’s a mix-up at the rink that causes Anastasia's partner to get injured, jeopardising an upcoming competition. You can sort of see where this is going; however, this book is so much more than the typical story about enemies to lovers story. It touches on everything from diversity and representation to having therapy. Combine that with great banter between the two leads, a really fun friendship group and some scenes where the dialogue is so saucy that it will make you blush, and you have all the ingredients of an all-time classic.
Wildfire (Maple Hills #2) (2023)
Why we love it:
- The chemistry between the two protagonists is seriously intense.
- An underlying message about the importance of found family, with a really strong supporting group of friends in this book.
This Hannah Grace book follows Russ and Aurora, who hooked up one time and are now stuck together as counsellors at a summer camp. Both took the job this summer because they were trying to escape their family and all the complications that come with them. The only problem is that if they are caught fraternising, they’ll be immediately sent home. And neither of them wants that. All the sneaking around and forbidden love adds a layer of jeopardy to the romance that makes the chemistry between the two seriously sizzle. But this book isn’t just about them stealing kisses (and the rest) while people aren’t looking, it’s also a touching story about the importance of found family, with the friendship group within the camp being one of the best bits about this book.
Daydream (Maple Hills #3) (2024)
Why we love it:
- Hannah Grace's creative writing style is poetic and vivid, getting better with each book in the series.
- It's the perfect escape for romance lovers who like a fake dating trope.
Hannah Grace's latest book, Daydream, follows fan-favourite Henry Turner, a chronic procrastinator who is the captain of the ice hockey team. When he finds himself in a difficult class with his least favourite professor, he knows he's in for a tough year. After accidentally crashing her book club, Henry meets fellow classmate Halle. An academic superstar, she offers to help Henry with his class, but having her own studies, job, book club, and novel she's desperately trying to write, does she really have the time for tutoring Henry? This is a sweet tutor and jock romance book that warms your heart when reading. If you read the books in the Maple Hill series in order, you'll also get to enjoy the cameos of the other characters and seeing how their stories evolved.
