The dynamic between Miles and Bryce was immaculate!!
Miles and Bryce don't really see eye to eye on a lot of things, but they are now forced to work together as Bryce is the reporter for the new football team that Miles is playing for! Their tension was there right from the start. Although we got the main rundown on what happened between the two characters and why they seemingly don't get along, I do wish that we got to be in their pasts a little more. Their dislike for each other made sense, because of how different they seemed from each other, but again, I do wish we got more into their past!
Miles was such a lighthearted guy. Although the reports always saw him as a bit of a loner with a chip on his shoulder, Bryce was able to validate him and show him that he is able to feel however he feels. Bryce had a hard past and a lot of trust issues, which caused her to self-sabotage in the name of protecting herself. She was slow to come around, but seeing her walls come down and Miles prove to her that she could trust him was so beautiful!
Seeing Miles learn to turn himself and see that there is more to life than the game was quite the journey. Bryce realizing what she actually wants and going after it was an amazing development for her. This book was very well-balanced and such an addictive read!
I loved all the cameos from other series, and I think this trio between Miles, Damon, and Cooper is going to be so much fun and I cannot wait for the other stories!
