If you’re into sports romance and the found family trope, this series seriously delivers. If you are looking to fill the Windy City Series void, this is the series for you!! 

The found family in this book was even deeper than the others. Everyone showing up for Riley as he navigates losing a limb was just… whew. It was written with so much care, and I really appreciated how disability and accessibility were centered throughout the story.

Chelsea always writes her women strong, independent, and feminist while still giving them space to fall in love in a real, supportive way. Lexi and Riley had so much open communication, especially around disability, intimacy,and being an athlete post-injury, and it made their relationship feel so grounded and solid. I think they are tied with Emmy & Maverick for my favorite couples in the series.

There were so many beautiful little moments around mental health and chosen family. It felt really true to reality especially how much thought and care goes into navigating a new disability.

Also?? The Easter eggs for the next books?? I was screaming. I CANNOT WAIT FOR THE NEXT BOOKS. ETHAN'S BOOK WILL BE SO GOOD. 

Oh and this one is spicier than the others 🌶️ 

Loved the surprise at the end and can't wait to see how all the couples grow by the end.
