"While I couldn't catch the ball to win the championship, maybe I can finally catch the girl. The one who should have been mine all those years ago."

This was my first Gia Stevens book, but now I want to read the first book in the series, as well as EVERY OTHER book she's written!! It was everything you'd want in a sweet romcom...best friend's brother with a twist, tension, banter, spice, and an HEA of course :) 

Dessa and Garrett's story is similar to some, childhood best friends, with one of them (Garrett) having unrequited feelings for the other. But then his brother kisses Dessa, and all his plans go awry. Now, a decade later, he realizes his feelings have never gone away, however, if he wants Dessa to be his, he has a LOT to make up for. 

Seriously such a sweet and fun read. I would highly recommend!!
