Quickie Review----May Contain Spoilers, Proceed At Your Own Risk
The Understatement of the Year is a story I went into completely blind and I am happy that I did so. This book was a pure delight and one of my catnips is second chance romances and seeing how Sarina Bowen handled this setup was so unique. I was also delightfully surprised to see that this was a M/M romance as well. That is one of my favorites in sports romance especially. But when it comes to Sarina Bowen, she really knows how to develop these M/M relationships so well. I really love the moments that we see between this couple. They have such a bitter past which is painful for both of them. We get to see them work through the guilt and pain and find a relationship with each other once again. We also see some solid friendships but also seeing that there was some bigotry that was implemented. So be mindful of that. I wasn't really a fan of that aspect, it felt a bit too much in the way that it was handled. Overall I had a fun time with this one and eager to continue to the next installment of a fun series.
