Book description
Hockey romance? Please. "Into Ruin" promises a steamy, forbidden affair between a girl and her brother's best friend-a guy who's clearly the hockey equivalent of a villain in a bad fanfic. S. Massery leans hard into the "dark, twisted" nonsense, with the protagonist admitting she likes being "dragged into ruin" by a guy who's already mistaken her for someone else. Translation: she's into being confused, manipulated, and potentially blackmailed. The whole plot hinges on her brother's pro career being at risk if he finds out she's hooking up with his best bud. Because, clearly, the only thing worse than a hockey player is a hockey player who's also your brother's best friend. It's like someone took a "will they/won't they" trope, shoved it into a locker room, and called it romance. The audiobook narration? It leans into the melodrama with a sigh, making lines like "I like the dark, twisted things he does to me" sound less like passion and more like a bad fanfiction draft read by a confused librarian. The humor here isn't in the writing-it's in how aggressively it avoids asking why anyone would want to be "tormented" by their brother's pal. The real ruin? Wasting your time on a book that treats emotional manipulation like a turn-on. Skip it. Your brother's best friend has better things to do than be your fictional tormentor.
