This book was absolutely everything. I could not put it down! I loved the second chance romance and forced proximity of it, and that love only grew as the story progressed. Zac is (rightfully) obsessed with Mel, and we LOVE a man who is down bad for his woman… even before she is his woman. These characters had me swooning and laughing out loud from start to finish.
Everything about Mel and Zac was perfect. Their history runs so deep and so does a shared understanding of one another. He’s such a gentle guy but the second someone looks funny at her… good luck to them!! He was so patient with her and the combination of his gentle nature and the spice at the right times was EVERYTHING. I’m also still squealing over the lake scene… IYKYK 👀
As a football girlie, this book hit all the right spots. I’m obsessed with the small town vibes and the character of Noah, the college’s beloved quarterback. While I’m fairly confident that Brooks’ story is next, I am so excited to see where Noah goes moving forward into the rest of the series.
Thank you to Atria Books for the opportunity to read and review this book! I received a free advance copy of this book via NetGalley and am voluntarily leaving a review. All opinions expressed are my own.
