My Review
4.5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐✨
I have been waiting for Nate and Carter's book ever since I read the first chapter at the end of On Thin Ice and it was worth the wait.
I loved Carter's sass and determination in his pursuit of Nate who had been his long-time much older crush and someone he didn't think he had an actual chance with. Underneath Carter's sass and confidence hides a young man who is following his father's plan for him and it isn't the one he wants for his future. His father is a self-righteous bully who has squashed Carter's own dreams and treats his being gay as something he should be ashamed of.
Nate, who we've previously kind of met because he is Beckett's uncle and an NHL legend who had an accident on the ice which ended his career. He's now at Northwood U as the new head coach, he's struggling with the loss of his career and trying to find a new purpose in his life.
I enjoyed seeing Carter become more than just 'Nate's old friend's son' they were perfect for each other and the 19-year age gap meant nothing once they realised how well they fit together. I love how good they were together and I appreciated how Nate believed in Carter and encouraged him to follow his own dreams for his future. We all need someone who will be there for us no matter what and once Nate got past some of his hang-ups, he was that person for Carter.
It's sad to say goodbye to the guys from Northwood U, it's been a great series but I look forward to whatever Hayden Hall writes next.

About the book
He's my first and only crush. He's my new coach. Oh, and he was once my dad's teammate and best friend.
I've been in love with Nate Partridge since I can remember. Under my mattress, there has always been a stack of magazine covers with his bare torso and a pearly smile. But that's about the extent of it.
I can never have Nate Partridge. He is a straight guy and twenty years my senior. Neither of which is a dealbreaker for me, but he disagrees.
When a hockey accident forces him to retire, he takes the freshly vacant job of coaching the Arctic Titans. And my life takes an unexpected turn for the better.
Nate is the only person who has ever truly understood me. Where my father's ambition dictates my every waking moment, Nate's kindness and compassion make me feel like there's more to life than hockey. Dad's disregard for my passions makes Nate's encouragement only sweeter.
And my crush reaches all new heights. Especially when I discover his deepest secret.
Nate Partridge is not straight.
But do I stand a chance? To him, I am nothing more than his old friend's kid and a college freshman he's in charge of training.
If I want Nate Partridge, it will take more than hope to make this real.
It's time to shake things up in my life before I can make him mine.
Carter and Nate are FIRE together. Don't miss out
Coaching Prince Charming is the seventh and final novel in the Arctic Titans of Northwood U series. It features an age gap, a forbidden relationship, a college hockey player falling for his coach, a former best friend's son, and a search for a purpose in life at nineteen and at thirty-eight. This novel can be read on its own, but it's more enjoyable to read the entire series in the order of release.
