Introduction
The Right Move is the second book in the “Windy City” series and also the most recent installment in the series. This was also just released this year. I will be honest I saw this book everywhere on booktube and bookstagram. And I was so intrigued and the moment that I read “Mile High” I knew why this book was being so raved about. Now The Right Move is about the brother of the heroine in the first book. There was actually a bit of a teaser between Ryan and Indy in the first book, so we got to see their first meeting and it wasn’t the most elegant of meetings but it really sets the stage for this story. I was so curious about Ryan’s book, everyone claims its better than book one, and I have to say I really enjoy these books equally, they are different from each other, so its hard to say if one is better than the other, but I can guarantee that The Right Move will have you falling mad for basketball romance and have you aching for more. To be honest, this is my FIRST basketball romance. This is not a common sport used in sports romances and its a shame because it has so much potential, and you can bet after reading this one I am on the hunt for all the best basketball romances.

Summary
The story sets off with Ryan, who has recently become team captain and its a new job for him. Ryan has a drive to be the best at the sport. He is a NBA superstar and the fame can sometimes get to him and he wonders how much more he can give and what this new position on the team will put him through. But he is determined to be a winner, no matter what it takes. But when his sister asks him to take in her best friend Indy, at first he is adamantly against it. He is a loner, he doesn’t have many friends, he doesn’t do the roommate thing ever. He likes his alone time and he desperately needs it. But Indy is needing a place when she finds her almost fiancee cheating on her in their bed. Indy and Ryan are complete opposites from each other. Ryan likes order, Indy embraces the chaos and color in life whereas Ryan likes the simple black and white type of life. He is stoic and she is emotional. But soon their opposites attract in ways that they never expect, and with the little moments of them taking care of each other, the chemistry builds between them, and when an opportunity for them to pose as boyfriend and girlfriend, that chemistry explodes between them and now the lines are becoming blurred on what is real and fake, but what is Ryan and Indy embrace the beautiful connection that is building between them…

My Outlook
The Right Move was such a beautiful book! Man my heart fell so hard for this one here. I absolutely adored this interracial romance. One of the best I have ever read and definitely is going to reach to the top READ of the year! In fact this book is up there with Archer’s Voice for me. And if I could give it a higher rating, I definitely would do that! This book was just right for me. I just adored everything that blends into this story. First off, I want to say that these characters are so perfect for each other. Ryan, as our hero, has so much character development in this story. In here, we first see his journey and growth as a athlete and pushing himself to places he never imagined. We see how he grows outside of himself and his comfort zone, and embraces what it means to be the leader on the team and when he puts his mind to this, he comes out on top! Then we have the way he treats Indy. Now at first, he is a bit of a grump, he doesn’t like sharing his private space. But he does these small sweet things for Indy that starts small but is so full of a caring heart and it only builds the more he and Indy get to know each other. The way in which he is so attentive to her needs and basically goes through ALL the love languages for her is so endearing. Then we have Indy, who has such a colorful personality. She loves to read romance, she loves color in her life and lots of iced coffee. She is this bubbly sweet blonde that wears her heart on her sleeve. The chemistry between these two just builds so beautifully. I love seeing how well the author built the “opposites attract” so beautifully and when it gets mixed in with the “fake relationship” trope, this author STEPPED UP THE BAR FOR ROMANCE! I am telling this book with each chapter, just delivered on so much depth and connection. The way that their bond just deepens and that sweet intimacy that flows so smoothly on the page was so captivating! I guarantee you don’t want to keep moving forward in life with Ryan and Indy in your life. If you love contemporary romance, then this book needs to be on your TBR and NOW!!! This book literally moved me and I just wanted to stay with this couple and I can tell you that they will stay rent free in my mind for years!!! This book was everything and more and I can’t wait to see what comes next for this author (which I hear is a baseball romance with a Nanny pairing, and I am SO ready for it).And also one more thing, the ending was perfection and what the hero does for her father was so heartfelt. (those who have read this book KNOW EXACTLY what I am talking about, and that is true essence of good character that moved me so deeply) 

Overall View
The Right Move was a stunning romance that captivated my body….my heart….and soul! It delivers in the depths of vibrant emotion, brings to life the colorful world of an athletes life, portrays the innocence of the heart and tugs at your heartstrings in these sweet quiet moments to capture your essence of attention and love!
