The things below ruined the book for me personally, but I understand this is a popular trope for a reason, and so others may really enjoy this book. I did really enjoy parts of it. Wyatt was so devoted, even just as a friend, and how much he cared for Andie was clear.
I don’t love the reformed player heroes. And the reluctant reformed players are the worst. While Wyatt isn’t exactly reluctant, right off the bat he wants to keep his relationship with Andie a secret. He thinks he needs to continue to flirt to prevent any suspicions.... about literally anything. One truly disgusting thing was that everyone around them seemed to suspect how Wyatt felt about Andie, but they were totally cool watching Wyatt hook up with woman after woman after woman. And the drama that caused the third act breakup felt a bit contrived.
TW/CW: infidelity didn’t occur in the book, but the possibility was talked about so much that I got sick of it, and added it as a cw.
