That was a cute little football romance, even though the end was, I don't know... Weird ?

Zeke, I feel extremely bad for you. I can't even put it into words. Like, you went through hell, and you face so many issues, it must be a torture to have this guilt every day reminding you of what you've caused. Plus, this dyslexia, that's playing with your future, it couldn't be worse.

Riley, I felt bad for you too, at a moment before I learned why you really hated him. I mean, you had your reason but even the victim forgave him. However I admire you for what you've accomplished, and for your really hard work, because from what I've seen, it wasn't easy at all.

To be honest, if you're searching for a cute sports romance, go for it , but the reason for why she despises him is a little messy.

"I am scared by the fire you started in me. Because you have reduced me to fucking ashes."

Riley est la seule fille qui joue au Football américain en club universitaire, dans toute la ligue. C’est une promesse qu’elle a faite à son frère jumeau lorsque ce dernier a perdu l’usage de ses jambes après un accident de voiture causé par son meilleur ami , Zeke Collins. Riley doit surmonter beaucoup de difficultés à être la seule femme dans une équipe d’homme : déjà ils ne la prennent pas au sérieux, pensent qu’elle ne mérite pas sa place et personne ne veut partager sa chambre universitaire avec elle. Enfin presque personne, Zeke accepte cependant Riley hait profondément celui qu’elle juge responsable des malheurs de sa famille, elle ne veut rien à faire avec lui même si lui, continue de la protéger qu’importe son attitude…

Je n’ai pas DU TOUT été forcé de lire cette série, nope

Oh, this book! So many tropes, but done so well! Enemies, roommates, brother's best friend, it had them all, and more.
Riley was playing in a male dominated sport, but she didn't let that stop her, or hold her back. Zeke was the one person she could not stand, but he was also on the team, and - of course - her roommate.
I loved watching this relationship unfold. These characters were so well written and you were immediately drawn into their story, so much that you're just waiting for them to get together already!
I also enjoyed the football aspects. In Australia we don't have this kind of football, so I learnt a bit by reading this. A little bonus.
Loved this story!
