The romance will take a little while to happen, but I promise its SO worth it. This series is 100% one of those guilty pleasures that you'll love. (Just don't focus on whether it makes sense or not, and be warned the more you get into it the more you'll have to be aware of the TWs)

If you like terribly written books with amazing characters, then I recommend this book.
To be honest, the first book in this series is more of a really really long first chapeter; but if you can get through it, the series does become better.
The plot doesnât make sense. Following Neil Josten, a serial killers son whoâs been running from his father all his life and has finally decided to stop running in order to follow his life long dream of becoming an âexyâ star (a made up, extremely dangerous sport) on an collage team made up of lost young people. And you may be thinking âWhy would I want to read a book about a fictional sportâ well I thought that too, and trust me you shouldnât want to read it itâs shit.
The opinions on the characters change with each reader, however If you donât like any of them thereâs a very VERY slight chance of you liking this book.
