I love sports themed books and this was a great one. I loved how the team and most people in the sport of Soccer were OK with homosexuality. Great goal to strive for in real life for sure. I really liked the character of Colin and his internal struggles. Adam was a great character to actually watch mature and develop personally outside of the world of soccer. The "falling in love" did seem to happen very fast to me--Adam was a major player but then all of a sudden he wants to date Colin. Perhaps Adam's thought process could have been described a bit more but this did not detract from the awesomeness of the story. And I LOVED the ending. Thought it worked out perfect!
