That's the best way I can describe Chloe and Ollie's story. Their slowburn love is a journey of discovery, forgiveness, and strength. I loved the way that even though Chloe isn't welcomed by the team as their new sports writer, Ollie is at least somewhat reluctant to give her a second chance. After all, Chloe's not the only one who will need a second chance at redemption by the end of the season.
The stunt that Chloe orchestrated was supposed to put her in the spotlight, increase her popularity, show her dad that she wasn't some visible no-talent writer. It backfired and caused a baashlash of drama Chloe faces head-on when she takes that first step into the team's locker room to write her first story. She knew it would be hard, even uncomfortable. She expected the hard looks, the harsh whispers. She didn't expect Ollie to step up and have her back.
I enjoyed Face Off and these two characters. Life is messy. I loved the way Ollie's quiet confidence supported Chloe as she struggled to get out from behind one of the biggest mistakes of her professional life. When Ollie needs it most, Chloe proves herself stronger than she thought as she keeps showing up every day, helping through rehabbing a serious injury. The Raptors Series is about an incredible group of people and teammates that come together, fracture, and heal to come out on the otherside even better than before.
🏒 Hockey is all I’ve got. Without it, I’m just Ollie. And I don’t know who that is.
📖 Ollie Taylor sees me, not just the headlines, not just the mistakes, but the person underneath.
