The Deal by Elle Kennedy

5.0

4.5⭐️I'll be honest...I was hesitant to read this book for two very superficial reasons. One, I don't care about sports and I was worried that I would have to read about hockey too much. The second reason is that there are abs on the cover. I do judge books by their covers sometimes, okay? I guess I just assume that books with shirtless men on the covers are not going to be great. I was pleasantly surprised by how much I LOVED this college romance. I really disliked Garrett at first, he was extremely cocky. Then I remembered that these characters are twenty-year-olds in college, and they were written pretty accurately. Garrett and Hannah had great chemistry and I loved how their relationship developed so naturally. I went from hating Garrett in the beginning to feeling warm and fuzzy from how cute their relationship became. The premise of the story is not original, but I still loved it. I was pretty much addicted to this book and I cared so much for the characters. I already want to read the next book in the series which focuses on Garrett's best friend, but I'm so attached to Garrett and Hannah that I wish I could read more about them.
