If the female main character was 18+ the book could’ve gotten so many more stars because I’m a fan of forbidden romances BUT, she was 16 and dating a 32 year old?!!! Far too much of an age gap which is also borderline illegal.

It’s a shame because the premise was great - huge fan of gymnastics and romance books. 

I’ve had to DNF because I just can’t handle her repeating her age all the time… morally feels like a very wrong read…
