Chances are, if you love a good read and a good romance, you’re all across the Maple Hills series of books by Hannah Grace. With every instalment so far combining just the right amount of romance, tension and steam, these books are a must for anyone that is after a wholesome, and hot, escape. And, perfectly timed for your spring reading list, Hannah Grace has just published the third book in her Maple Hills series, “Daydream”.
Following on from “Icebreaker”—the OG hockey romance and undisputed viral sensation—and last year’s “Wildfire”, “Daydream” sees us follow the internet’s boyfriend, Henry Turner, through junior year of college.
Our boy’s going through it. Procrastination has landed him in a class with his least favourite professor, and now he’s going to have to work extra hard just to survive. On top of that, he’s also now ice hockey captain, which he knows he can’t fail, despite not even wanting the gig in the first place.
Amidst the chaos of his day-to-day life, Henry crashes a book club accidentally, and that’s where he meets Halle Jacobs.
Halle is a bit of a literary prodigy herself. Along with her studies (which she excels at), and her job, she’s also working on her own novel. But, when she hears Henry’s having some issues with his class, she naturally offers to help—a generous queen!
Despite the fact that her schedule is already more than full, she takes on privately tutoring Henry. She’s currently going through a bout of writer’s block, and new experiences are the perfect cure for that.
Let it be known—Henry is going to give her new experiences, and then some. They just need to stick to their rulebook. Oh, and not fall in love.
“Daydream” is set to follow in the footsteps of “Icebreaker” and “Wildfire” before it—the latter two have sold 260,000 combined print copies in Australia alone. “Daydream” is a spicy read, trust us, but it never shames its characters for their spiciness. It’s sex-positive, consent-focused, and, above all, a fascinating read.
The numbers speak for themselves—Hannah Grace’s writing is at once wholesome and arresting. Following a friends-to-lovers trope, which we’re all suckers for, “Daydream” is the type of feel-good story you can truly lose yourself in to welcome in the warmth of spring. Imagine it: picnicking at the park, sun beaming on you, chips and dip within arm’s reach while not being able to put this book down.
“Daydream” is available now in print, eBook and audiobook. Head to Simon & Schuster now to see where you can get a copy.
