Blindsided: A Best Friends to Lovers Standalone
What happens when an almost thirty-year-old virgin agrees to let her Scottish footballer best friend give her some lessons in seduction? Lots of banter, awkwardness, jealousy, and heat. Midfielder Maclay "Mac" Logan is a loud-mouthed, tattooed ginger content with focusing on football. But when an adorable, freckled seamstress comes barreling into his life, he finds Netflix-And-Bickering with her to be his new favorite pastime. Freya Cook is used to being the invisible woman with a needle and thread, offering cheeky punchlines as she helps dress London's finest. She's plus-sized in body and spirit, and other than her friendship with Mac, talking to the opposite sex is one skill she never mastered. However, after one innocent game of Never Have I Ever, Mac offers to play Love Coach for Freya. What neither of them see coming are the feelings that develop when the clothes come off. Now they're both about to learn the biggest lesson of all: Don't fall in love with your best friend.Blindsided is a full length (97,000 words) contemporary rom-com standalone with a sports theme.

This is such a wonderfully sweet and sexy friends-to-lovers romance!
I loved the characters Freya and Mac. They grew together throughout the story because they needed each other to do so. They brought out the best in one another. I particularly swooned whenever Freya felt insecure about her body, and Mac was there to help her dispel those intrusive thoughts.
This is not a straightforward friends-to-lovers romance by any means. There is some angst involved. I hated the moments when they weren’t together! However, I appreciated that Freya wasn’t a pushover. She had the strength not to forgive and forget as soon as those three magical words were spoken. Mac had to work for her forgiveness, and I loved that!
If you love a friends-to-lovers, friends-with-benefits, sport-themed romance with a touch of angst and perfectly imperfect characters, then this is a must-read!
I didn't like the FL, she was so annoying. I know the point of the book is that she's not comfortable with her body and her sexuality.. but come on, girl! I liked the ML but I felt bad for him most of the time.
4.5 Stars!
Such a good Friends-to-lovers story! The main character Freya is plus size and her dude is Mac, tatted and football (soccer) player. YASSSS!
I had so many laugh out loud moments, Amy Daws knows how to do comedy.
I highly recommend!
