 “Because I'm okay with you having ten other people be your favorite. But you're always going to be my favorite person.”
― Mariana Zapata, From Lukov with Love

This story resonated with me. Now, did I ever think a sports rom-com would rank high on my romance favorites? No, absolutely not. Did Jas with her determination and no filter attitude blend so well with Ivan's grumpy warm heart (dude has a rescue pet pig!) and strike right at my heart? D*mn right it did.

Bonus Quote**
“Love to me was honesty. Being real. Knowing someone's best and worst. Love was a push that said someone believed in you when you didn't.”
