this is straight up pornography.
this series is really hit or miss. this, being the first book, felt like the author getting her footing in this genre.
Kip was a fun character to read. he was believably complex, motivated, and excitable. Scott was also complex, but his character arc happened too quickly. again, i am always disappointed when LGBT+ stories center around coming out. i understand it is a big deal for star athletes, but i wish there was some other big conflict to write the story around.
not much to say for this one besides HOLY SHIT THE ILYA CAMEOS WERE SO FUNNY!!! i was literally giggling, kicking my feet, twirling my hair at all the foreshadowing about Ilya’s eventual queer awakening/story. otherwise, a very fluffy story with a very happy ending.
