[Book Five Novellas]
Story: 4 out of 5
Smut: 1 out of 5
I forgot how much I loved these couples AND hockey romance.
These stories are supposed to tie up everyone’s stories from the Off-Campus series, but for me all it did was leave me wanting more! How dare Elle Kennedy leave each ”part” as a mini cliffhanger. Especially Hannah and Garrett’s story!
Each “part” made me laugh. A couple left me aggravated, but thankfully the issues were handled fairly quickly. I got so attached to these characters that I hated any drama. I just wanted my babies to be happy haha.
As was the case with the first four books, Elle Kennedy did a fabulous job here. This is one series I will never forget.
Now here are my rambling thoughts…
THE PACT
* Not Logan and Grace role playing at the bar. Holy shit haha.
* Aww. I forgot how much I loved Grace’s dad Tim. He’s such a sweetheart.
* Lmao. A creepy haunted doll? These idiots mail it to each other when they least expect it 😂
* Fuck this puck bunny. I just know this is going to cause issues 🤦🏻♀️
* Oh I’m so glad the article took a completely different turn 😂
* Lmao. Stuck on the side of the road during a blizzard? Fuck it out in hopes of keeping warm. That’s the obvious choice, duh.
* “A pact requires the agreement of both parties,” he argues. // “Not when my life is at stake.” I stick my tongue out. “Sorry, babe, but I’m eating your ass whether you like it or not.”
* Wait, what?! How are you gonna end part one like that?! We better get to find out if they eloped or not!!!
THE PROPOSAL
* Aww. Dean’s practicing his proposal on his best friend 😂
* They totally fucking eloped. Logan’s being secretive about that day!
* Oh my god.. Hannah’s queasy?! She’s pregnant!
* Oh no. So Allie doesn’t wanna get engaged right now? but Dean already has the ring!!!
* Logan and Grace did get married!!!! I knew they were the eloped part of this lol.
* And now Hannah’s barfing in the bathroom. Friends episode indeed 😂
* Wow. I’m totally Team Dean in this. My heart hurts for him.
* I’m so happy she saw the error of her ways. And Logan’s dick 😂 Her proposal was sweet.
* “Fuck. I wish I had the ring on me. But it’s at home.” // “Is it big?” // “Huge.” // “How huge?” // “Massive. Even your dad was impressed.” // “You showed your dick to her father?” — 😂😂
* Lmao there’s that creepy doll again. And of course she let the cat out of the bag. Now Dean knows Logan’s married too.
THE HONEYMOON
* Lmao. Oh no. Their flight would have the worst crotchety couple in front of them and then smoke filling the plane. Poor Sabrina and Tuck. All they wanna do is bang each other’s brains out and they ended up with the worst flight ever.
* Lmao. Dean’s such a dick. He would send them the creepy doll on their honeymoon.
* They threw the doll into the ocean. I’m gonna laugh if it winds up back with them somehow.
* “That was for the plane, wasn’t it?” // “I would never.” // “You almost let a man pee on me, Sabrina!” // “That’s how much I love you.” — I love them.
* Awww. Hannah confirmed her pregnancy. But she doesn’t know what she wants to do.
* A coconut knocked her tf out 😂 They’re having such bad luck on this trip.
* Lmfaoooo. The doll fucking returned. I can’t 💀
* And now Tuck got arrested 🤦🏻♀️
* Damn. They both got offered jobs in Manhattan. I think they should take them.
THE LEGACY
* Aww. All Garrett wanted was a good night. Now his dad is there handing out an award. Barf.
* Oohhhh. The Legacy is a show. And they want Garrett to do it with his dad. Ouch. I hope he does… and then outs Phil Graham as the abusive asshole he is.
* And now he’s spiraling. Fuck, Hannah is never gonna find a good time to tell him she’s pregnant.
* Oh no. She’s spotting. Please let her be okay. Or freak out enough to go to the hospital and this is where Garrett finds out.
* Goddamn. That interview was not going too well at all. And then Hannah tells Garrett she’s pregnant over voicemail. This day sucks already.
* I’m happy she’s giving him the silent treatment. And now that he’s freaking out because he saw the number she took for a realtor. It’s totally not what he thinks, but this is the kick in the ass he needs.
* Awww. They’re gonna have the baby 🥹
* He’s going to do the interview solo and tell the world what a piece of shit his dad is! Yesssss!
* Lmao. The creepy haunted doll now has a companion and the expecting couple were gifted them 😂 Sabrina and Tucker are such assholes.
* TWINS!!!!! Oh my god. Why did it have to end there 😭

A official state marker remembers John Tucker, a Black man beaten to death on July 4, 1845, on Saturday, Sept. 30, 2023, at the intersection of Illinois and Washington Streets in Indianapolis. Tucker, a freedman from Kentucky and father of two, was attacked after leaving a Fourth of July celebration while walking along Washington Street, and beaten to death by three white men while a crowd looked on. One attacker served three years while the other two served no time. (Michelle Pemberton/The Indianapolis Star via AP)
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The story of a Black man beaten to death in Indianapolis in a racist 1845 lynching is now part of the city’s cultural trail in the form of a historical marker.
The marker describing John Tucker’s slaying was unveiled Saturday by state and local leaders and members of the Indiana Remembrance Coalition, The Indianapolis Star reported. It was placed along downtown Indianapolis’ cultural trail close to where Tucker was killed nearly 180 years ago.
“Uncovering and documenting uncomfortable history is an obligation that we all must share. We must always seek to tell the full story of our history,” Eunice Trotter, director of Indiana Landmark’s Black Heritage Preservation Program, said at the unveiling.
Tucker was born into slavery in Kentucky around 1800 and later obtained his freedom. He moved to Indianapolis in the mid-1830s and was a father to a boy and a girl.
On July 4, 1845, Tucker was assaulted by a white laborer, Nicholas Wood, as Tucker walked along Washington Street. He defended himself while retreating up Illinois Street, after which Wood and two other white men beat Tucker to death. A crowd gathered to watch.
Wood was later convicted of manslaughter, “a rarity in an era when Black Hoosiers could not testify in court,” the marker reads. The other men involved in his beating death served no time.
Tucker’s lynching forced his children into a legal battle over his property and perpetuated generational trauma for the family he left behind, said Nicole Poletika, a historian and editor of Indiana History Blog.
While often associated with hangings, the term lynching actually is broader and means “to put to death (as by hanging) by mob action without legal approval or permission,” according to Merriam-Webster.
Lynchings in Indiana from the mid-1800s to 1930 “intentionally terrorized Black communities and enforced the notion of white supremacy,” the historical marker states. Trotter said lynchings were not uncommon and happened in communities across the state.
“Having the knowledge of such instances forces us to confront some of the most harmful, painful layers of the African American experience in Indiana,” she said. “Acknowledging them is an important part of the process of healing and reconciliating and saying that Black lives matter.”
