وصف الناشر
The third in the New York Times bestselling Maple Hills series follows fan-favorite Henry and a bookish fellow student who come up with a plan to help them both overcome their respective challenges in a difficult year. Perfect for fans of hockey romances like Heated Rivalry.
When his procrastination lands him in a difficult class with his least favorite professor, Henry Turner knows he’s going to have to work extra hard to survive his junior year of college. And now with his new title of captain for the hockey team—which he didn’t even want—Henry absolutely cannot fail. Enter Halle Jacobs, a fellow junior who finds herself befriended by Henry when he accidentally crashes her book club.
Halle may not have the romantic pursuits of her favorite fictional leads, but she’s an academic superstar, and as soon as she hears about Henry’s problems with his class reading material, she offers to help. Too bad being a private tutor isn’t exactly ideal given her own studies, job, book club, and the novel she’s trying to write. But new experiences are the key to beating her writer’s block, and Henry’s promising to be the one to give them to her.
They just need to stick to their rule book.
Oh, and not fall in love.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Bestseller Grace continues her Maple Hills series (after Wildfire) with this meandering third college romance. Fresh from the breakup of a lackluster relationship, UCMH junior and aspiring author Halle Jacobs throws herself into school, work, running a romance book club at a local bookstore, and preparing to enter a romance writing competition. There's just one problem: Halle's never been in love herself, and her insecurity about her lack of experience leads to writer's block. Meanwhile, junior year is not starting so well for Henry Turner, who struggles to juggle his new responsibilities as the hockey team captain, a position he does not want for fear of failure, with the homework for a difficult required class. When Halle and Henry's paths collide during a book club meet and greet, they become instant friends. Halle offers to help Henry in the class in exchange for him teaching her how to date. Grace throws a lot of tropes at the wall to bring these two together but doesn't provide a solid through line for readers to latch onto. As a result, the plot feels both bloated and dragged out, and, despite Henry's undiagnosed neurodivergence adding some pathos, neither of the leads is particularly three-dimensional. Only die-hard fans need apply.

Cute book!
I liked how their relationship grows but I thought the first two books were better.
Just so sweet
I’ve love the 2 books in the series before this one, but Daydream juuust might be my favorite. It’s just so wholesome. Nothing else to it. The characters are all so easy to connect with and love as they’re each so complex and it translates to the page. I found myself genuinely concerned about their well beings as well as their futures. Such a great read!!
LOVED!!!
The first two books of this series, I had read before this one came out. They kept me on the edge of my seat and fueled the fire for me to read this one. Hannah Grace has definitely become one of my favorite authors!
I can’t wait to see what the future holds for her!
