Overall, I really enjoyed this one. I haven't read a lot of football romances, but this one was fun!
This book follows Lee and Shayna. Lee is a professional football player for the Kingsmen, and Shayna was just hired by the Kingsmen to be a sports therapist. This is a second chance, forbidden/workplace romance. In college, Lee broke Shayna's heart. Now, many years later and Lee still deeply regrets this situation, but will Shayna give him the opportunity to apologize?
I really enjoyed Lee and Shayna! The connection they had and the tension WAS THERE!! The chemistry was amazing and I loved seeing them together. This book being dual perspective really helped the story! I loved seeing how both characters were feeling and what they were thinking throughout the book. I loved the sports team, as always! The banter between Lee and the other players was so entertaining and I really can't wait to read the stories from the rest of them!
I do wish that we got more about the past between Lee and Shayna. This was made to be such a big situation since Lee broke Shayna's heart, but I felt like it was never really talked about. They continuously talked about the bet, but never truly dove into it. I think getting more from that situation would've helped me to understand both characters a bit more, but unfortunately, it wasn't talked about much.
Regardless, I still enjoyed the story and did see the conflict coming. I thought the ending was a bit abrupt and would've wanted a bit more before the epilogue. Still, I enjoyed it and can't wait to read more in the series.
