4.5

4.5⭐️ ~ My brain truly can’t comprehend what I just read. Like omg this story was crazy but I loved it so much. Gibsie is hands down my fav character but everyone is a close second. I was literally at the edge of my seat this entire time which is probably the only way I was able to get through the craziness of this 600 page book.

Let me just say that this is the slowest slowburn of all slowburns to ever exist. It took all my patience and I found myself yelling at the book a lot. Anyways what a cliffhanger. I need book 2 asap.

Giving this a 4.5 just bc it was such a long book for the very little amount of actual relationship time they had. But who cares because I loved it anyways and is a new sports romance fav of mine.

Now I need to decide if I want to but the kindle version of book 2 so I can have it now or get the physical copy that I really want even though it won’t come until Sunday.

If you have a high patience tolerance then read this book asap. Thank you so much to my bestie, Lex for recommending this to me.

Also please check TW before reading this book 🫶🏻

I can't get this book/series out my head. Seriously, i'm constantly reaching for these if i'm ever bored of the book im currently reading. If they had a 10 star option, i'd pick it every time. These books are second to none !!

There are no words to describe how much I loved this book. Such a slow burn that depicts high school love so sweetly.
Both characters have strengths and weaknesses that balance each other out and had me rooting for them the whole time. Not only did I love Shannon, like the river, and Johnny, but I enjoyed all the size characters too! Gibsie, Joey, Claire, even Lizzie proved to be lovable. I was initially intimidated by the page count and find size but I found myself able to fly through chunks when I made sure to dedicate time! Overall such a cute high school sports romance I will certainly be continuing!

THIS BOOK DRAGGED. It was setting up so much for the second book, and it just felt so long. I was hoping it would pick up speed. But it just kept going. But that’s not at all saying it was bad, because it was enjoyable. I just wish it was more fast paced than it was.

Johnny and Shannon were set up beautifully. It was a realistic timeline and for that I applaud Chloe. They were instantly placed with each other. Instead they had the friendship stage where you both know you like each other, but you just won’t admit it yet. Been there, still doing that as we speak, which is why it’s so fun to read about.

This actually set up perfectly the second book and that’s just something that needed to be done well. But god that ending. I WAS SO UPSET. WHY DID MY POOR SHANNON GO THROUGH THAT. WHY WAS SHE GIVE THOSE HORRIBLE PARENTS. I’m so glad she had Joey and I’m so glad he stepped up the way he did even though no child should have to. Has she not had him, she truly would not have survived. I also loved how Johnny was with Shan. He cared so much for her and even when they were just friends, he put in the effort to make sure she was okay. He’s now become one of my new favorite book boyfriends.
