I could not put this book down until I devoured every inch of it (lol), but seriously it was so good I re read it several times. It starts with Georgia transferring schools for her scholarship and her teammates are hazing her to pick an ugly guy and ask on a date. What she doesn’t expect is to find Ashley who at the time looked rough just fresh from a rugby match and he knows what she is up to and calls her out on it. Georgia is a sweetheart, a southern beauty that is smart yet kind, she knows she screwed up and wants to make things right, but Ashley does not make things easy for her. Even though she feels awful and tries to make things better she refuses to be his doormat and then they form a friendship of sorts, become roommates, while both fight the attraction, they have for each other. Ashley is the perfect British gentleman while Georgia is the perfect Southern belle and together, they may look like they don’t mesh but you can’t fight fate. I wasn’t a fan of how her parents were towards the end of the book and treated her but was so happy with how she knew in her hear what to do. This book was pure sports romance perfection, and I loved every bit of it!!! ( )

you know I can't resist

I'm not sure if I'd take the horrible misrepresentations of sport over the misrepresentation of the English-and have them be made into like 'a deal' everywhere it was so weird. Ash's usage seemed totally off to me, for one thing he never called his home country "England." It was always 'Great Britain' (another thing I feel like I don't see)

I kept thinking "I wish Ney hadn't made this choice and made it so central" which is a shame because the relationship itself was actually kind of sweet, but the details were a bit more uh--off? Just like sports details...you know? Like, my dad calls it a billfold, so I think that's a regional US thing too but I guess that's a British thing per our heroine...? So anyway, I'll give it a 2.5. (less) [edit] ( )
