As an insecure plus-sized POC, this book really tugged on my heartstrings. Roxie is insecure but she's firm on her values and while some might see her as a 'damsel-in-distress', I find that she has great inner strength. Griffin is the typical jock but he's waking up from his past actions and shaking off the fratboi, fuckboi persona. He's starting to be serious about his life and future and he's sure he wants Roxie in it.

The romance was FAST, they fell hard and fast for each other but I'm not complaining. Luckily they're both mature enough to communicate properly to sort out their baggages in order to have a proper relationship. The plot was thick for the amount of pages but at the 90% mark, there were some noticeable grammar errors. 

Overall, a SOLID college romance book.
