As soon as I put down Offsides I went straight to KU to grab this and then I got distracted by a teaser for a dark romance that for some reason I couldn’t resist. So, after I fell down that little rabbit hole I was a little worried that this would be hard to pick up. But from the first page I was hooked. 

 

This absolutely could be read as a standalone, but I would highly recommend reading Offsides first just because it gives some good insight into the friend group. Plus, it reads just as well as this one; great writing, awesome characters, loads of all things college sports romance plus a little bit of extra spice.

 

Tyler was introduced in the previous book, but we didn’t get to know Sera until this one. And I immediately loved her. She was far from perfect and despite the fact I couldn’t personally relate to anything she was going through I loved her. Sera was so incredibly real and everything she was going through ensured there was never a moment I wasn’t wondering how it was going to play out and turning pages.

 

Tyler was book boyfriend goals and then some. Everything about him from their first anonymous meeting that we only hear about in retrospect was hot. He absolutely lived up to the Hades tag. And the drama that I was expecting from the Chase reveal, played out to beyond what I was expecting. I couldn’t have asked for more. And now I’m going to go spend hours on Goodreads trying to figure out what to read next.
