Well-written and engaging, for the most part. Romance like this always has tropes; this was no exception. The tropes Ali chose to include are quite overused, imo.

Such a fun story with just the right amount of humor and angst. Loved the combination of her love life, athlete life and friends. She is a collegiate diver who is coming off a major injury. . He is a collegiate swimmer with an ex girlfriend diver who is trying to hook him up with a little rougher sex life that he likes and his ex does not. Scarlet has had a bit of a rough go with her mother dying and her father being abusive. Her step mom Barb saved her. Scarlet is at Stanford and Lucas is a swimmer from Sweden. He automatically likes her but holds back to not scare her. Love that we got to see her blossom in diving and figuring out love. Love Lucas. At the end she flies to Sweden to get him back. He’s waiting for her and wants her back.  They both end up in medical school.
