Starts with a mistaken identity with Elena and Jack.

Jack is a quarterback and Elena is a librarian (secret hobby/ job on the side).
It's a sports romance along with a small town where everyone knows everything about each other.

They both carry their own trauma and hurt but it's so well written.
Elena is a mix of strong and sweet. Jack has trust issues and we get to see his growth throughout their relationship, he is so loveable and awkward at times.

I really enjoyed seeing the push and pull between them. There was also great friend support (Topher!!) and Jack's teammates' support for him.

Jack’s trust is like lace, filled with sharp edges and holes. Barely there. Delicate.

Love is messy, and it takes two people to work at it, two *willing* people.

“Broken people love the hardest because they appreciate the things that make their heart beat.”

“My nana used to say that broken people love the hardest because they appreciate the things that make their heart beat. Do I make your heart beat?”
