I liked this more than I expected to. I feel like I’ve had mixed luck/feelings on sports romances but I felt like this was done really well, though there is a lot of spice. It was hard to watch her give Aaron, who was controlling and abusive, so many chances but it’s a serious issue and I appreciated the complications of a non-romantic partnership. I also appreciated the therapy. I felt like we got to know a number of the friends. It was nice to see both mental and physical disabilities portrayed in this book.
Graphic: Toxic friendship and Sexual content
Moderate: Body shaming and Gaslighting
