The Assist by Rebecca Jenshak

4.0

There is nothing I love more that sports romance and as far as they go, this one was pretty good. I will admit that I nearly stopped reading it about halfway through but! that was because I had grown so attached to the characters and I didn't want anything to puncture their bubble of happiness. It was well written and the plot was quite realistic. I appreciated how Rebecca dealt with some heavy real life issues in this book and how all the issues were not magically resolved but the characters had to work hard to reach certain points in their personal growth. Life isn't all lollipops and rainbows and neither is real love, it's ups and downs, highs and lows, and this book reflects that perfectly. Overall, a very enjoyable read with characters that are easy to get attached too. I can't wait to read the next one in the series. In a way, I'm mad as hell that I read this one so early because it's going to be a long wait to 2019 for the next book in the series.
