I love these books so much, they are pure NA sports romantic comedy gold, and I loved being back in this world.<\/p>\n<p>Abe Davis is a college wrestler in his junior year, and he is a devoted student who is a bit on the quiet side, preferring studying to partying. He has a heart of gold and is the one that his friends and teammates turn to whenever they need help, to the point that he has been nicknamed the team\u2019s \u2018Grandfather\u2019. His latest mission is to help his teammate\/roommate, JB, get over his broken heart by trying to find him a girl via the college\u2019s dating app. Abe goes online, vets the matches, starts up a quick dialogue and sets up the dates, leaving JB to take it from there.<\/p>\n<p>Skylar Gabriel\u2019s is a down-to-earth girl whose life is defined by average grades and embracing her love of pyjamas and couch time over the college social life. She has great friends, but she wants to find love &#8211; a sweet guy with a sense of humor who is looking for something more than a quick hook-up. With encouragement from her girlfriends, she turns to the college\u2019s dating app hoping to meet somebody.<\/p>\n<p>Within moments of logging in, Skylar matches with JB, and they begin a fun, banter-filled flirtation. They click instantly, and they\u2019re both feeling the attraction which only deepens the longer they keep messaging each other. But the problem is \u2013 she\u2019s not falling for JB, she\u2019s falling for Abe. And Abe wants Skylar for himself.<\/p>\n<p>This is such a cute and fun set-up. The chemistry between Abe and Skylar is fantastic, the text conversations are so entertaining, and I couldn\u2019t wait to see how their attraction would translate into real life\u2026. and I was not disappointed! But with their whole relationship built on deception, how will they be able to untangle the lies, and where do they go from here?<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i>\u201cFor what it\u2019s worth, I\u2026\u201d It sounds like I\u2019m choking on my words, throat constricting. \u201cI think you\u2019re pretty fucking perfect.\u201d<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I really enjoyed this read, it\u2019s a great romance and the characters are fantastic \u2013 Skylar is funny and so relatable, and Abe is just gorgeous, sweet and funny, I fell for him so hard. This book can easily be read as a standalone as the only thing really tying it to the series is the setting, but fans will love the cameo from our favourite Douchebag, Zeke, as he imparts his dating wisdom, lol. And that epilogue gives us a glimpse of more that is to come and I cannot wait!<\/p>\n<p>Loved it &#8211; 4 stars.<\/p>\n<p><i>An Advanced Reader Copy was generously provided by the author in exchange
