5.0

Out of nowhere Kasha Thompson has become one of my favorite authors. Her Las Vegas Rambler series started off strong with the complicated characters Sloan and Deck in Defensive Stance, which I thoroughly enjoyed. But there's something about Justus and Sariah that makes them even better!

In Jump Ball we meet troubled boss babe Sariah Thornton working through familial drama after her estranged father dies and leaves her a substantial part of his wealth and Justus Chappel, basketball player turned NBA coach eager focused on two things: a championship and his twin daughters. 

Jelly Bean, create the life you want and you'll never be unhappy a day in your life.

Though this is the advice that Sariah reflects on her first day at the Las Vegas Ramblers executive offices, it sets the tone for the entire story. We find two people trying their hardest leaning on one another and working together to create a happy life on their own terms. Along the way, we get an attempted corporate takeover, a sibling reconciliation, and a spicy HFN.

This is my fifth 5 star review for Kasha Thompson's books. I cannot say enough about how good her writing and storytelling is. You're in for an entertaining story with lovable characters every single time.

Spice: 🥵🥵🥵🥵
