Let us be your guide as we move through all the parts of the (S)hero’s journey!

One of BookTok’s most beloved second-chance romances is finally heading to the screen on Prime Video. Based on Carley Fortune’s bestselling debut, Every Year After, the adaptation is already shaping up to be one of the season’s biggest romance releases.

So, of course, we had to do a Special Summer Issue dedicated to our new hockey romance obsession. With an exclusive interview from the author, Elle Kennedy, a breakdown of why this show is working so well and book recs to soothe your Briar U hangover, you’re not going to want to miss this!
