It Had to Be You by Susan Elizabeth Phillips
2.0

Giving 2 stars is very unusual for me. If I finish a book,I have to at least like it to some extent. I should have known after the first couple chapters that this wasn't a book I would enjoy, but sports romances can be fun so I stuck it out.

Although I understand why Phoebe felt the need to act like a bimbo, it wasn't endearing at all. Coach was very abrasive & angry,and although I love alpha males,he was just excessive.

The idea behind the story was interesting. But the execution left me feeling unconnected to the characters & I never really felt invested in the story.
