This has been a book I’ve seen so much hype for, and being from Chicagoland I figured it was about time I got around to it. I do like sports romances but I feel like I haven’t read all that many and after this one, I have zero clue why. The pro-athlete thing is a real fantasy and when you’re dealing with a hot and cocky bad boy like Zanders I don’t know how you can’t swoon. I loved seeing him fall head over heels for Stevie but a big reason I loved it so much was because she is a realistic woman. So often we get female characters that are petite and although I’ve never really minded it, it was refreshing to have some curvy representation. Surprisingly, although I’m not denying there was spice, it wasn’t as much as I imagined it would be and the plot was still intriguing and detailed enough to overrule the spice. This is a book you get a lot of what you expect out of it, but I think it was done well and I found myself entertained and wanting to read the rest of the series.
2.5/5
1. Take a shot every time the author uses any derivative of the word “curl” .
2. If I could sucker punch this guy, I promise you I would.

Absolutely loved it! The story line and development anyways. But I had a few issues with it nonetheless...
Almost 500 pages? Very unnecessary! There are aspects that absolutely could have been trimmed like repetition of physical details of the 2 main characters. if 200pages in the reader hasn't figured out the main characters eye colors, I think that's on them to deal with.
It also threw me off the gender neutral names of the best friend and his wife. As someone in sports, I get that last names are VERY often used as main names. But did the wife also need to be called Logan... could you not have given her a more feminine name.
Spending all that repetition on her curly hair, and the author couldn't do a better job and emphasizing the fact both characters are black? Feel like that's a detail that could have used some amping up.
