The timeline with them being teenagers and bonding and gaming together and then having that miscommunication had me SOBBING! I loved the tension and the roomate situation! The reveal was also EVERYTHING TO ME. The spice was good too as well as the found family aspect. That tattoo shop guy was such a red flag omg. The epilogue must have been one of the longest I ever read tho lmao.

i definitely feel like if i read this when i was in the mood i would have enjoyed it more, but that's on me.

this book was so cute. the history they had made me absolutely fawn and shit because it was so cute. (i found it stupid how she chose to approach him though icl). i really enjoyed mary's character- her desire to be a tattoo artist was so well written and i was so rooting for her and was so proud of her. the found family was also hitting in this book and had me goofily smiling and shit too. leo was cute, i found him sexier after he started apologising. his random italian words did make me chuckle tho- and also mary never asked what any of that means??? like be fr. the character's did have some amazing chemistry, but i feel like the book didn't start at the start of the story which, i think, in hindsight, affected my ability to fully get itno it bc it's like starting a movie 25% in instead of at the start. also i definitely skim read the smut. maybe i wasn't in the mood but either way i wasn't quite invested.

as for the conflict. valid. he did go against her wishes but i don't understand why she kept saying he broke her trust again and again. luckily she came to her senses.

thenNNNN, ms kandi steiner wrote the BEST THING EVER THAT IS SO TRULY UNDERRATED AND UNDERUSED!!!! leo ran to her after a game infront of everyone to the bleachers to kiss her. 🤭😩

what really stole my heart away was gianna telling clay they're having a baby in the epilogue!!!! ( i gasped audibly and was so emotional.

Ugh, Leo fu**ing Hernandez!! Kandi Steiner had me falling in love with a man that does not exist, YET AGAIN :( Hot, cocky, football player and Hispanic! YES PLEASE. Now, lets get into why this did not get a higher rating. The miscommunication that 100% could have been avoided was just irritating. Leo not "remembering" was just dumb and hard to believe. Mary being so insecure and Leo always having to compliment her was *eye roll*. Although, I did love that Mary wasn't your typical FMC. Tattoos, curvy, tomboyish. The pattern Kandi Steiner has towards the end of the book was predictable BUT I thought the reconciliation was super cute! It was giving the football scene from A Cinderella Story. Ate up the SMUT of course ;) Leo is just perfect! Enemies to lovers romance will always have me in a chokehold.
