It's a fun book--3.5 stars cause it's fun but I'll probably never read it again.
Really enjoyed Beckett as a female character's name. Reminded me of being down South and the naming practices (wouldn't have expected it for a NY born and raised character).
The Callahan family is fun minus the dad Richard. Love Sandra the mom, she knows what's up.
Darryl was an ass. Hope he got expelled or suspended.
Interested to see how much more of Bex and James we'll see in the rest of the series.

However, James wasn't completely likable and had anger issues. As well as a kind of obsessive attachment thing going on with his partners, where it was ALL about them and nothing else in his life. Making even the main relationship not completely healthy.
The male narrator wasn't great the female narrator was good. She did a great job with different tones for different characters.
Overall it was a good book with a lot of emotional depth. I do plan to continue the series.

Literally obsessed with this book, the writing, and the characters 🥹 I binge this book in one day. Personally, I think this was better than Icebreaker by Hannah Grace which is a college sports romance. First Down is a perfect mix of spice, drama, and fake dating romance!

did i just miss half the book or??? because even though this book lasted a ENTIRE FOOT BALL SEASON we saw maybe 8.214 days in total
it would be a higher review if the author had showed them falling in love
It’s only this high because i enjoyed reading it even if there is no proof the characters have spoken more the 12 times
this author should just stick to only smut books because that’s the only time you see the main characters interacting
