I loved this! I love a sports romance, and basketball is my #1, and this did not disappoint! The characters and their relationships were all lovable. Everyone was kind to each other. Even the third act "breakup" was handled with tenderness, and it didn't feel forced or contrived. There's sensitive mental health/depression representation as well as self-discovery around sexuality. There was a foster-care/addiction plotline that threaded the needle well. All in all, a delightful read! I'm going to have to go back now and read all of the other books in this series (this was my first!).
