I wanted to like this book but no.

It started as a bet between two team captains. What could possibly go wrong? There is just something about this series that I love. As someone who was in college three years ago they just hit. I can't wait to read the rest of the series.

Something about this gave me The Hating Game vibes. It was good and if you also liked The Hating Game I would recommend.

I liked this book. I think it is hard enough to fall in love much less with someone
who has lost their memory and can't remember their life before.

I liked this book, but the "southern accents" in the audiobook made me cringe so hard. I liked the character arc for Wesley. He was grumpy, but a gentleman. I don't think we spend a lot of time talking about MMC who are still virgins and this was a nice change of pace to see it used in a meaningful way.

I liked this one. The soft spot I had for Charles really made me love him as a character.

Tiktok made me read this book. It was good for a booktok recommendation. It has Indian-American lesbian representation which isn't a trope that was seen in a lot of previous books. If you're looking for more diversity for your bookshelf this one may for you.

This was probably my favorite book from this month. I like when romance books are attainable and realistic and this one checked all of my boxes. Enemies to lovers, forced proximity, ahhhhh!

This is not how I thought the series would end, but I am happy with it. Can't wait to see how the show turns out.

This book was everything the tension with Jamar and Taylor had me coming back for more. The sweet but spice of Jamar's personality had me living. If you are a fan of fake dating I highly recommend.
