I'll admit that I came into this book with low expectations , because of booktoks habit of hyping up books with sex scenes in them regardless If they're actually good books are not, But this one? This one was amazing. I don't think there's really a single part of this book where I wasn't satisfied with the way it went.
I love the way the romance was handled. I love the way the book doesn't try to toss in a whole bunch of sports information when it's not necessary for this story. I love the communication my god I love the communication , it's very rare to see in romance books. I love the friendships, Love the non toxic sports friend group , They were gonestly one of the best parts of the story without overpowering the main couple. I fell in love with everyone, especially Henry , hopefully we get a book on him. I love how the FL's friendships and problems were handled. Her inner monolgue perfectly portrayed someone who had a therapist and I love that.my one gripe would be that I wish they'd adopted like she planned , that would've been really sweet story wise considering her back<\spoiler>
And the sex scenes? Extremely detailed but great to read . Not cringey at all to me . And consent !!! with full communication throughout!! So rare to see sometimes.
Read the book. If you were on the fence about this story , I swear to you you'll enjoy it in some form. High praise to the author , can't wait to start on the next book in the series.
