A fun very quick short story. Just wanted more from it, there's nothing wrong with it as much as you just don't feel like there was enough story. But it's very cute, and I can appreciate the pace when it keeps the conflict to a minimum for a happy ending.

Cute, and we all know I love a good baseball analogy!

There's not a lot of times where I literally call the couple toxic for each other. This is one of those times... Not for one second did I buy that these two people were good for each other.

And the smut was cringe...

The fact that I finished this book means it kept my interest until the end…and then I was completely let down and feel meh about the story as a whole. 
I wanted more groveling I think by both MCs. 
I get needing to wrap up a story, but when we have so many movies doing that it begins to feel lacking of substance. 
This is NOT to say that I will not read anything else by Adams, nor is this comment/review meant to imply anything other than that I am intrigued enough to continue checking out the author’s works!!

I really enjoyed the prospect (excuse the pun) of the story, but I found the characters a tad unlikeable and the story to be a bit too longwinded and mopey.

A lot of the YA angst was really irritating, and unfortunately the romance wasn't as 'swoon worthy' as everyone said it was.

My only complaint was that I wish this was longer! The middle chunk could have used more instead of rushing the timeline of the summer months.

Loved it!
