Product Information

The main thing that rlly annoyed me was like why did the author not show us the actual important events. Maeve is a girl also to be proud of - senior captain of the girls' soccer team, strong studious student, and also, the twin sister to the captain of her own school's football team.

We don't spend loads of time with each group since our main characters are always sneaking away to see each other, but I appreciated the time we had with them. I empathized with Maeve's underlying fear and frustration and confusion of a supposed betrayal to her family by having feelings for Wes. and if felt like they only hung out a few times and suddenly they had been together for 6 months and saying ily - like why are we not seeing the development.As well, there were a few times where Mauve or Weston would mention something that happened between the two of them, but it was like off the record. We don’t spend loads of time with each group since our main characters are always sneaking away to see each other, but I appreciated the time we had with them. The book could have been amazing without all the breakup drama if they had communicated, but I love their relationship .

And one memorable kiss etched forever in their hearts is enough of an incentive to sneak around and steal stolen kisses, exchange warm affection and tender touches, and prove to the other that if not for this inane competitiveness between their towns, they would not hide in the shadows. Her single-minded focus has cost her a lot, but it’s also earned her recognition as the top female college player in the US. Anyways, I wouldn’t have had as much problems with the aforementioned things if this book was under a different genre, but it’s a YA, very pg book.What particularly peeved me that for all the intensity that the two opposing towns rivalry was depicted as - it only took a public loud drunken break-up, a heated apology, and a begrudging acceptance from Maeve's friends, to see that their rivalry was indeed petty, and that they truly were better off as friends and finding a balance between the two opposing sides.
