It's a fun book--3.5 stars cause it's fun but I'll probably never read it again.
Really enjoyed Beckett as a female character's name. Reminded me of being down South and the naming practices (wouldn't have expected it for a NY born and raised character).
The Callahan family is fun minus the dad Richard. Love Sandra the mom, she knows what's up.
Darryl was an ass. Hope he got expelled or suspended.
Interested to see how much more of Bex and James we'll see in the rest of the series.

However, James wasn't completely likable and had anger issues. As well as a kind of obsessive attachment thing going on with his partners, where it was ALL about them and nothing else in his life. Making even the main relationship not completely healthy.
The male narrator wasn't great the female narrator was good. She did a great job with different tones for different characters.
Overall it was a good book with a lot of emotional depth. I do plan to continue the series.

This book was a super fun read! My first sports romance ever and I'm very glad I started out with this one. I love the fake dating aspect especially because that's my favorite trope EVER so I was immediately excited to read this when I saw it had that trope. I definitely think I would've read this a lot faster if I hadn't been in a reading slump.
