I absolutely love this book. I recommend it the everyone at least once. I want a Dylan in my life. I do admit their meet cute is umm... interesting. But a meet cute none the less. There's this one quote that I can't get over:

"I'll catch you when you land Flash. Just don't take too much time, because I'm already there, impatiently waiting for you..."

If someone were to say that to me I would melt on sight. Dylan is definitely the "you touch her you die" type and I'm here for it. I love how Dylan nicknames Zoe "Flash" not only because I love superheroes and one of my favorites is the Flash... okay maybe that's the main and only reason why I love the nickname so much. I wish someone would nickname Flash.

Now on to the things that I didn't like and the reason why this isn't a 5 star read. One, I absolutely hate Keith... Keith can go die in a ditch and rot for eternity for all I care. The same thing goes towards coach Mark. Like how are you going to threaten Zoe using Dylan against her and ruining Dylan? What type of coach is that? I also don't like how quick Dylan is to react to things, like he would react badly if he thought Zoe was with another guy by just storming off and shutting down instead of letting Zoe talk but other than that I love this book. I'm in a football romance kick at the moment.
