I enjoyed this book, it was a bit darker and twistier than I expected but enjoyed the love story and characters nonetheless. And you already know I’m all about a football player.

A better version of The Deal, but my heart hurt for Ivy. She is so strong and deserves the world.

If there's one thing you can expect from B.Celeste books is being hit hard from the start breaching those hard topics before a time jump in the second chapter. At least in the Lindon U series so far. Ivy has dealt with some tough times and asked her childhood friend to run away with her but with his football career, she knew it wouldn't happen. Years later they wind up in the same college together and that's Lindon U. One thing I loved about this book was the house dynamic Aiden shares with his roommates and how they quickly welcome Ivy into it. After reading this book and the second, I'm not a huge fan of their coach apart from helping Aiden achieve his dreams. Overall, I enjoyed reading their dynamic and continue rooting for them. 

3/5 Spice Level

TWs: Self harm, Suicide attempt, Suicidal thoughts.
