I love a good sports romance!
Tobias is a baseball star who needs to get his grades up to stay on the team. Meyer a single mom and the school's best tutor. She does not want to tutor Tobias, but is forced to.
At first I really did not like Tobias. He was a spoiled, cocky jerk. Tobias feels entitled to take up as much of Meyers time as he wants and is pushy and demanding. I think it bothered me more because we knew that Meyer had a baby and was struggling and he was making her life more difficult.
I adored Meyer, she was such a strong, determined woman. I loved to see the way Tobias' attitude and behaviour changed the longer he was around Meyer and Bailey.
I enjoyed the paced at which their relationship developed. It was slow and though he was pushy at first he respected Meyers boundaries.
From the moment the coach appeared in the book I knew something sketchy was going on. I spend the entire book trying to figure out if he was the baby's or Meyers father. He was an abusive, manipulative ass. I feel like the story line with the coach was too neatly resolved in the end. I wish that was flushed out a bit more.
Tropes: Sports romance, single parent, slow burn

π§πΏπΆπ΄π΄π²πΏπ: toxic relationship
I liked the book and I can say that it has a plot twist towards the end that left me amazed. Unfortunately, I can't say anything about it, but all I cant tell you is that there are some hints right frim the beginning, so if you plan to read this book, pay close attention to the details.
Meyer is very strong, hardworking, whose atteis on her daughter. She has a very busy schedule of tutoring classes, so the time with her baby is limited, but she is grateful to Tobias when he chooses locations to do the lessons so that it easy for her and her daughter.
Tobias is a jerk towards Meyer at first, because he strongly believes that it is impossible that Meyer has zero feelings for him. But his behavior changes drastically when he discovers the real reson why Meyer is so focused on school and her time. I have bo words to how much I liked when Tobias turned into a "father" role for Bailey, Meyer's daughter. From the first moment when he meets the baby, he thought about her and Meyer's well being. But aslo how much attention he was giving the baby, and how he already knew what to do when Bailey woke up during the night. It really melted my heart.
I really liked the book and I am interested in reading other books written by this author. So, if you have read books written by Meagan Brandi, please recommend me some.
