About the author
Jamie Summer
16 books164 followersJamie is an author, wife, mother, reader and coffee lover who loves to take you on an emotional ride with her books.
When she was younger, it was her best friend who got her into writing in the first place. School was boring? Afternoon off? Fanfic writing was what they would do for hours to no end. Publishing, though, hadn't been anything on Jamie's radar until she woke up one day from a very vivid dream. It was one of those you can't get rid of, so she ended up writing it down. And writing some more on it. Until a full story started to emerge. It was her best friend who ended up pushing her to take the next step and put the book out there.
Ever since then, Jamie has been writing all kinds of different stories, all centuring around women or girls fighting against their inner (or sometimes outer) demons. The stories range from Young Adult fantasy, to women's fiction or contemporary romance. Whatever idea comes to Jamie's mind.
When she's not writing, Jamie can be found spending time with her friends and family, sitting on her deck enjoying an Iced Latte, watching one of her million TV shows or simply sleeping (cause let's be honest, sleep is hard to come by with small children). She lives in beautiful Germany where she's currently conjuring up her next book.

I think a little more study on football ( soccer) would suit this author if sports romance is going forward in her future. English football is a religion. It is filled with players who don't sit out games (matches) because of an article in newspaper. These teams have publicists who handle press situations. I think this was a nice story with some over the top parents (on both sides).
I would go closer to a 3 star because I thought the two main characters came across well. I liked them both.
So my review is more of suggestion to get more invested in the sport if that's your angle. I liked the description of the stadium seats and concession foods but seeing Tyler sit felt like a high school setting and not an English professional stadium setting. Go big or go home!! Lol

A little drama
I get this love story needed a bit of drama to make it work in the end. However, I could’ve done without it she could’ve had issues with her parents and not this other guy to make the story work. I did like the first book it had absolutely no drama just like regular life.

Unexpected
Jo and Tyler's story was sweet, frustrating, and heart breaking, do to Jo's relationship with her mother. I was so glad to read how in the end it all worked out for the main characters.
