Omg!!! A Black Cat, Golden Retriever sports romance with a side of marriage of convenience. Yes please. This book was such a fun read. The characters are amazing and you root for them from the moment that they meet.
There are so many wonderful moments. The story is original with believable characters that are endearing. I love the push and pull between summer and Rory. The side characters ended so much without distracting from the MC’s. I do feel that the family/ex plotline was sort of skimmed over and was a missed opportunity. But I am truly enjoyed it and am excited to see where the series goes so if you love a black cat versus golden retriever, small town, sports romance with tons of banter than this is for you.
