I expected this to be spicier just based on the cover but I’m not complaining. There’s considerably more plot than I was prepared for and I’m here for it. I enjoy plot with my spice, and even with this being part of a series and I’ve jumped right in, I was able to keep up with the story and the characters with little to no extra effort on my part. The story had its moments where I was less than thrilled with the tropes we were experiencing but overall I don’t have too much to complain about. 

It’s a solid sports romance that’s light on the sports (thank goodness) with just enough spice to keep it interesting.
