This was my favorite of the Maple hills series! I had a difficult time getting into the first 2 books u til I was well into the story. This one was easier to read and more realistic to me in terms of stories. The grand gesture brought tears to my eyes.

Every JJ appearance makes my life so worthwhile. TY Netgalley for the arc and TY Hannah Grace for writing this hockey team x bad bitch found family romances. Every one has been a delight.

WOW! It's my favorite of The Maple Hills Series so far. Henry has always been my favorite side character because of his witty banter and his tell-it-like-it-is personality. Still, Daydream allows the reader to understand Henry on a deeper level. I'm always a sucker for a book-lover main character, and Halle is a perfect amalgamation of a book lover and budding author. This book focuses on many topics: mental health, found family, neurodivergence, oldest daughter syndrome, and coming of age. It was a perfection. I loved it.

this continuation in the Maple Hills series is a delightful blend of humor, heart, and romance. This time, we follow fan-favorite Henry Turner, the reluctant new captain of the hockey team, as he navigates a tough academic year. When Henry's procrastination lands him in trouble with a challenging class, he finds an unexpected ally in Halle Jacobs, a fellow junior who accidentally becomes his tutor after he crashes her book club.

Hannah Grace skillfully captures the chemistry between Henry and Halle, as they forge a friendship based on mutual support and shared challenges. Their journey is both charming and relatable, as they try to stick to their rule book and avoid falling in love—though their connection is undeniable.

Daydream is a heartwarming read that fans of the Maple Hills series will adore, filled with witty banter, sweet moments, and the perfect amount of romance.

This was everything I wanted and more! Henry’s love for Halle was so sweet! JockxTutor!!! To die for. Henry’s book was one of my most anticipated reads this year and Hannah did not disappoint!

I relate so much to both Halle AND Henry in this book. My ADHD is a big part of who I am, and I saw myself so clearly in Henry. I also saw myself in Halle as the girl who was always a little unsure in college, not really anyone's first choice. What I would have given to have a Henry really see me. Sooo freaking good. My favorite of the three in this series!

I loved reading this series. Each book is unique and special for those Characters. I love the family style friendship all the hockey players have including their significant others. Halle had so much pressure put on her from growing up and became a huge people pleaser and not having a clue how to make herself priority #1. Henry, is struggling with his inner demons and trying to be the person he thinks everyone needs him to be. I love his friendship with Halle. They are funny and sweet together and end up being the perfect person to help accomplish their goals and learn difficult life lessons.

I really enjoyed reading this book and excited to add it to my collection.

Thank you Netgalley! This book is amazing! Henry and Halle are beautiful characters! The ups and downs are so relatable. Our library will definitely get this book! Hannah Grace fans will definitely enjoy this book!

My daughter devoured this book and has loved this series so it definitely hits the mark with the 18+ crowd! Another good story and entertaining read. I liked this the bets of this series so far and I really enjoyed the characters!

For a book titled Daydream, the gentleness of this story absolutely fits. It still has Grace's signature humor and open-door sexual content, as well as the cast of characters we've gotten to know over the past 2 books in the series, but this one is decidedly more tender and soft than the previous books. And for me, that was absolutely a good thing. Additionally, as someone who is neurodivergent, I really appreciated both the way Grace portrayed Henry's own struggles but also how she did not feel the need to label it, just to describe in empathetic detail what it's like. And as someone who is also a chronic people pleaser--I'm pretty sure Halle is the other half of my brain. I still won't say NA and sports romances are my thing, but you've got me, Hannah Grace. You've got me good. :)

Thank you to Netgalley and Atria Books for the ebook ARC. All opinions are mine alone.

Honestly just wow. I loved this one so much, and I genuinely didn’t know if anything could top Aurora and Russ but halle and henry really really did!!!!! There is so many things I love about hannah grace books and one of them being the found familyness!!!!! I just am obsessed with reading about these best friends and how funny they are and how much they show up for each other.

Halle is literally me. I could hardly even stand reading about her sometimes bc I was like oh:/ I’m getting actually jumped rn. I love her so much. I wish she was real so bad. Henry was everything to me. SOOOO funny, so perfect. He cared about halle so much it physically hurt me.

This book was just so good to me. So fun, and such a good overall theme of self love + self care. And allowing your people to show!!! up!!!! for you!!!! I had so much fun, and my only SLIGHT beef is the length. I felt like it could’ve been a bit shorter but I still loved every page. Over 150 highlights am I okay????

Thank you sm atria for the arc I just LOVE you

This was a cute story. I liked the characters. I feel like they had realistic character development. I hadn't read the two previous books in the series, but I didn't feel like that effected me much in understanding the story. The funny thing is, I went to read the first book in the series, and I did not enjoy it at all- so I guess I'm glad I read this one first!

Loved the characters in this but dialogue sometimes felt robotic. Their relationship was beautiful but felt almost too perfect to the point where I didn’t feel any conflict coming that would keep me interested.

After reading Wildfire, I was a little apprehensive to pick up Daydream. Turns out, I totally loved it. I think I liked this more than Icebreaker? But that very well could be for personal reasons.

These two characters were relatable on so many levels. Halle and her people pleasing (I feel that so much) and Henry and his spirling. While I adored Henry with everyone else in Icebreaker, I have to admit I didn't see how a book with his story would work. So Hannah Grace came in hot to prove me all the way wrong. Henry is truly unlike any other book boyfriend I've read in all the best ways.

Two things I loved most about this book:
1. The third act conflic was thankfully not super dramatic and didn't make me all that anxious, which I feel like authors are so prone to do anymore.
2. Thank you for just finishing the book and not adding an epilogue or bonus chapters. That might be my favorite part of all.

This is an absolute must read for anyone who loves a cozy romance in which the stakes aren't too high, and for those who fell for Russ in Icebreaker like I did.

Thank you to Atria Books and Netgalley for the advanced audiobook. All opinions are my own.

This was a pretty solid romance. I really enjoyed the dynamic between the couple, but I did think that for a bunch of 20 year olds they used a lot of therapy-speak. I do wish it was a bit more subtle in that regard. I felt like it had a hard time balancing the realities of what 20 year olds and fully developed adults experience and think. I do also think it’s a bit hard to follow if you haven’t read the other books. So many characters, I had a hard time keeping up.

This one was my favorite of Hannah's UCMH series! I loved how sweet the two characters were with one another, and the story itself was feel good and lovely.

Thank you to Atria Books for this digital ARC via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

I've been waiting for this one! <3 Henry is finally getting his story. I'm so happy to see the Maple Hills series continue to grow because I love these characters.

The author's note at the start of the book made me even more excited for Henry's story because Hannah's love for her characters leaps from the page. Her writing is so deeply connected to her own feelings but it allows for you welcome each character and embrace every quirk and flaw as you go through the story.

Henry and Halle are the quirkiest of her characters this far in the series. I loved their slow-burn friends-to-lovers romance. I especially loved the open communication of their needs and boundaries and how they continue to work on themselves and form meaningful relationships. Halle has a long history of people please and never saying no (honestly... same). Her overbearing mother has always dumped much of her parenting responsibilities on Halle to keep herself from being too overwhelmed and Halle just takes it on in stride. I was honestly waiting for Halle to finally snap and explode on her mother. It was so satisfying to see her finally stand up for herself in the end and also see her mom respect where she's coming from.

Halle's ex, Will, is such a piece of shit. He has spent YEARs gaslighting her and deflating her confidence. Making Halle thing so little of herself she thinks she needs to do things for other in order for people to want her around. He confidence is at an all time low at the start of the book. When he pressured her for sex and she wasn't ready, so he dumped her, I wanted to scream at him through the pages. But honestly, good riddance. I am so happy that she finally freed herself of the dead weight he was and to finally find friends who are truly in her corner and love her for who she is and not what she can do for them.

Oh, Henry. Throughout the entirety of the series, Henry has been an absolute sweetie pie. I have always loved his friendship with Stassie. He is neurodivergent (undiagnosed) and struggles with filtering his thoughts, lest they come out the wrong way and offend someone or hurt one of his friend's feelings. He also struggles with sound overwhelming him. When he gets overwhelmed, he tends to need to shut out the world. This is, of course, a quick simplification. I love how his friends understand his needs and give him the space and time that he needs, while also pushing him towards things they think he's capable of. **Balance** And Halle just fits right into that with ease. From highlighting his articles to just the pertinent information to gifting him noise reduction plugs to be able to go out with friends, and noise cancelling headphones to study.

I love the universe that Hannah has created in the Maple Hills series. The relationships and friendships are so wholesome. I'd love to see JJ with a book next!

This is the third book in the Maple Hills Trilogy, and while I did not enjoy it as much as book #2, this one is worthy of a read.

I find that the characters in this series of books don't sound so much like young 20 year-olds, and are a little more mature than they should be. Perhaps that is the point of the story; but in that sense the book seemed slightly off. While I enjoyed it, much of it didn't ring true for me, but I was able to put that aside and focus on the story and the characters. Worth a read if you are a fan of the other books in the series.

I absolutely loved this book!! I’ve been so excited for this characters own book for years and it did not disappoint! The cover was very aesthetically pleasing and can’t wait to buy my own copy to have on my shelf!

I have never read Hannah Grace before, but I’ve always heard wonderful reviews about her previous books. I had high hopes for my first book, but unfortunately it didn’t meet my expectations. I couldn’t get past the almost robotic dialogue. Thank you to NetGalley for this ARC.
