This book came at just the right time! I’ve been in a book slump for quite awhile, and Lucy Lennox’s Right as Raine turned it around. I really loved this one by her. I thought Raine and Mikey were nicely developed, and the banter was both sweet and sexy. The setting was really neat, and I liked that it kept the “feel” of Hobey, Texas from her Forever Wilde series without it being exactly alike. Aster Valley has it’s own unique cozy small town feel, and I can’t wait to read other books in the series. I’ve also read a lot of sports romances, and I thought the idea of having one of the heroes be the professional athlete’s personal chef was pretty cool. I also really liked that Lucy stressed the importance of football not being everything - I thought that was a refreshing perspective in this sports romance.

Further, I was kind of surprised at the route Lucy took with Mikey’s father. I really kept believing throughout the story that there was some “unknown” reason that the reader wasn’t privy to for why he treated Mikey so terribly. I thought something would be revealed near the end that would make it make sense and that there would be a big reconciliation. I feel like that’s the usual route, but to my surprise, Lucy let that be an “ugly” reality in the story. I wasn’t sure how I felt about it at first, but in the end I kind of appreciate that there wasn’t some big HEA (with regard to Mikey’s relationship with his family). Mikey’s dad was just an awful person, and I liked that Mikey didn’t try to repair that relationship and focused on his love for Raine, instead looking to a future with Raine’s family.

Re-read. I really enjoyed Tiller and Mikey. I still can't stand Mikey's father he's a huge jerk. I really like getting to know Aster Valley again. I feel like the eventual ultimatum and how it was handled bothered me, so I'm rating this 3.5 this time around and I enjoyed everything accept this, which detracted from what the two MCs have in my opinion.

This was a great friends to lovers story. While Tiller and Mikey are reluctant to give into their desires because of Tiller's career and Mikey being the coach's son they eventually do. This was a great story and everything that they endured to show that love conquers above all.
