“Temptation is so much more than a hockey romance. It’s a tribute to the beauty of men’s mental health and being in touch with one’s feelings. To see grown men feel safe enough to articulate their feelings. To be able to cry, comfort, and be openly affectionate with another man (straight, gay, bi, or otherwise) is powerful. It’s a message that I believe now more than ever is needed. Furthermore, the discussions surrounding grief, survivor’s remorse, and coping mechanisms have been handled with the utmost care and sensitivity. As I read through TOI, I found myself crying, cackling at the banter, and getting curious about other characters as well.”

-Goodreads review for Temptation On Ice​

"Adrian has managed to take the undertones of trauma and grief and weave it into a story filled with hope, happiness, healing, and love. Add in a heavy heaping of lust, and you've got yourself a delicious book. The similar grief these men bond over is the backbone of their relationship, from strangers to friends to lovers...this was such a beautiful story."
