emotional funny lighthearted fast-paced

“Seriously, just find yourself a rebound.” Dean whips up his arm. “I volunteer as tribute.”
 - The Score

Tropes: Sports (Hockey), College, Reformed Player, Friends with Benefits to Lovers, Secret Relationship, Actress
Spice Scale: 🌶🌶🌶🌶
CW: Slut Shaming, Death, Drug Use, Grief, Suicidal Ideation (Mention)

I will admit that I didn’t really like Dean much in the first two books, but The Score totally changed my mind. He’s cocky, but also such a secret softie. His coaching was sweet to watch, and his support of his friends was endearing.
I loved how his and Allie’s relationship developed from a rebound to friends to something real. The had amazing chemistry and the fact that they were still pining for each other while carrying on with a sexual relationship was so well done. They had such a supportive relationship, and the conflict between them at the end was realistic and handled with care and nuance.
I think The Score might be my favorite of the series. It was funny (the bathtub scene and Dean and Beau’s Twilight conversation especially), soft, and sexy. It checked all the boxes.

I really liked Allie & Dean! I thought they were a cute couple. They went through their hardships and that helped them become a better couple. I cried when you know who dies, it broke my heart. Just the fact that he was there when Dean & Allie kind of debut as a couple in front of their friends. I kind of loved that their love language was physical touch. Normally I’m not a type of person who enjoys it or enjoys reading it, but this was done right. Sometimes it can be down cringy but I thought it was cute and just showed how much they love each other. Also, they way that Dean didn’t even notice that he was touching Allie at some parts, made my heart swell! I feel like Dean was just waiting for someone to take him by surprise and Allie did that. Allie was waiting for someone who excites her and he did that for her.

One of my fav romances. These characters have such great arcs both separate and together. There is an emotional hit and good themes about what it means to support your SO and how far you should go for them. Plus the good girl, bad boy vibes. I loved it 2x!!
