Mary is also painfully ~not like other girls~ which I let go for the purposes of enjoying this read but jeez, we get it, you play PlayStation and have tattoos 🙄
To sum up: Steamy read, intense feelings, second chance and sort-of enemies to lovers but with lots of miscommunication.

Leo presents himself a cocky player, but deep down he is pining for Stig, the girl who ghosted him. He is hiding away this genuine, caring, soft side of himself from the world. He is protective of Mary, yet incredibly respectful of her. Though he wants nothing more than to be with her, he respects her space and works to earn her trust.
Mary endured a lot of trauma as a teenager and felt completely rejected by her parents, especially her mother. She knew from a young age that she wanted to be a tattoo artist and would stop at nothing to achieve her goals. She is stubborn and closed off, but slowly learns to trust again.
Fast forward to present day, Mary still carries so much hate for Leo, meanwhile Leo has no idea why Mary hates him so much. When she reveals the truth to him, it is truly heartbreaking to read through him realizing how much he destroyed the woman he is falling in love with.
I love them together so much! When Mary finally starts to forgive Leo and allow herself to give into her feelings, she still keeps her heart partially guarded out of the fear that he will hurt her again. Meanwhile Leo is head over heels in love with her and will literally do anything for her and to prove he loves her.
I loved seeing her and her mom connect when Mary realized she was just like her. I am so sad that we won't be getting a book for the rest of the guys, because they added so much to the story!
Tropes: enemies to lovers, forced proximity, football
