Rebecca Jenshak always delivers a fun lighthearted sports romance for the girlies. I enjoyed this one, especially with the unique twist of motocross and gymnastics. I liked Knox and Avery as a couple. They both supported each other’s drive for success in their sport, we love mutual appreciation. Once they get past their initial tensions Knox and Avery find this ease with each other, they just fit together. Honorable mention to all the scenes with the Holland brothers. I just love their family, they may tease one another but they deeply care about each other. I recommend this for fans of the Campus Wallflowers series.

Thank you to Valentine PR and the author for providing a digital copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. 

After an angry outburst, Knox is kicked off his racing team. His friends recommend he fill his time training for the next season. Avery, a collegiate and Olympic gymnastics star, might be just the person to coach him to a new racing team. The only complication? Knox is a dick, and Avery fucking hates him. Example A: “‘I’d rather douse myself in lighter fluid and set myself on fire than help you.’” 😛

Overall, I loved this enemies to lovers romance. The characters were mature and Knox’s brothers make for a rowdy bunch. I would love for this to expand into a ‘brothers’ series. Jenshak was clever in her writing abilities... can there be a third act breakup if they were never really together in the first place? 🧐 Tasteful and entertaining. I would recommend this to fans of The Bromance Book Club series. 

Side note: Avery riding on the back of Knox’s bike in a dress gave me anxiety, though. ALWAYS WEAR PANTS, LADIES. Unfortunately road rash is a real thing. ⚠️
