Oy. This book.

I don't normally read dark romances specifically because they feel soapy. This one did that too, unfortunately. 

The middle section of this book where Ari and Noah are getting together is good. The beginning feels dissonant and the end is an ABSOLUTE train wreck with like 7 tropes shoved in.
accidentall pregnancy? Miscarriage? Amnesia?! REALLY!?! </spoile > I almost gave up with like 50 pages left. 

There were also a lot of callbacks to previous characters the author had written that I did not know and are not in this series?  It was odd. 

My biggest disappointment was that I went into this with expectations of a sports romance and it wasn't. The football aspect was totally superfluous. Major bummer.

Also this book is hella white. Eek.
