A spicy small-town, brother’s best friend, sports romance “packed with sizzling tension, heat, and sweet, swoon-worthy moments” (Peyton Corinne, author of TikTok sensation Unsteady) between a college football coach and the one that got away that you’ll want to devour in one sitting. If he can prove he loved her then, and he loves her still, this time might be different. Ten years after one of the most heartbreaking nights of her life, Melody Woods is…

This book is full of all of the tropes I love- brother’s best friend, friends to rivals to friends to lovers, and a little bit of second chance.

Melody is a strong, focused person who lost a lot of her confidence after being in a relationship with a very manipulative and domineering man. She knows what she wants and is determined to get it, even if seeing Zac again stirs up the feelings she had for him as a teen.

She knows that Zac ghosting her has caused some distance in her relationship with her twin brother Parker and best friend Summer, since she avoided coming home. But it seems like something happened between Parker and Zac as well. They’re still friends and hang out as a group with Summer and their friend Brooks, but things seem strained between them.

After a disastrous camping trip, Melody and Zac reconnect and discover they need each other, at least to sleep. At first.

Miscommunications, fake relationships, old hurts, secret love, exes who can’t take no for an answer, and some very steamy moments make this an incredibly fun read.

I’m looking forward to book 2 in the series (Brooks’s story) and hope we get to see Summer and Parker get their happily-ever-afters as well (together maybe??).
