This was my first book by the author. I listened to it on audible and I enjoyed it. It's a slow burn, roommates to friends to lovers college sports romance. It's told in 1st person dual POV with dual narration by Alexander Cendese and Lidia Dornet. 

I usually don't read college romance cos I find the characters a bit too immature, but someone on bookstagram managed to convince me to read this book with just the first line 😂🙈. I was in the mood for feel good vibes, and this book delivered. I loved Zoe's awkward ramblings, it was so cute, and I think the male narrator did a great job of acting it out. I think both narrators did a good job bringing the story to life. 

There's a lot of family drama, which made things interesting and the side characters added depth to the story. If you're looking for an cute, easy listen, I'd definitely recommend giving it a listen.  It's currently free on Audible Plus, (June 2024). Check the content warnings though, Even though this book is mostly upbeat, it also adresses some heavy topics.

Really enjoyed the character dynamics and twists and turns of this book. The last ~50 pages stopped it from being a 5* read

I enjoyed this book! I thought it was a good college football romance book. However, please check the trigger warnings before reading.

Cute sports romance. Football isn’t my favorite to read about but I liked Dylan and Zoe. The book gets a bit heavy with some violence, which was surprising. There was a lack of resolution with the Kayla/Keith story line.
