4.5 ⭐️ How does Liz Tomforde do it?
I feel like every single book in this series keeps becoming my favourite the second I read it, and this one is no exception. I love that we get to see all past MCs as part of this big, chosen family, and although I felt like it was slow at times, I really liked the relationship between Kennedy and Isaiah.
This book is "a married in Las Vegas, one drunken mistake becoming the catalyst for a whole epic romance" sort of book. It was fun, and I really liked that there was some angst thrown into the mix. The FMC, Kennedy, was in an arranged engagement for years, and is still engaged when she originally meets the MMC. There's no cheating, however, since she breaks it off, and although he's been obsessed with her since they meet, Isaiah doesn't really cut off any other women until she breaks off her engagement -which I thought was so fair, and honestly kind of perfect. He wasn't creating any unrealistic expectations of her or the possibility of them being together when she was supposed to marry someone else, but the second he knew he had an actual chance he dropped everyone else -even if the chance of them being together was a small one, since they're co-workers and it's forbidden for them to engage in any sort of funny business.
This book also explores the trope where one of the MCs feels inexperienced in spicy activities and asks the other for help. It's usually not one that I love, because it usually goes hand in hand with the V¡rgin trope, and I hate that one. Here, however, neither of them is a v¡rgin, but Kennedy comes from a very cold, detached family and in all previous relationships she had been deemed as cold. So, she uses the opportunity of having a mistake husband to try and learn how to be warmer and more affectionate "for future relationships, ones that are real". Poor Isaiah couldn't catch a break, but he really is a 10/10 book boyfriend. I feel like all of Windy City's MMC should be in some Book Boyfriends Hall of Fame.
Overall, I really have nothing bad to say about this book. I enjoyed it immensely, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for some HEA sports romance.
