He’s my favourite Finley character, if I had to pick one, and while he wasn’t in the book a lot, I loved the scene he did have. Damon we see all the time and I love him, but I can’t tell you how much I was looking forward to seeing Maddox. There were a couple of times when I wanted him to get off football’s ass for just a second, but he was still a great dad. Not the ones from this series, though there were a few of those too, but the ones from Eden’s other series. I thought both conflicts were handled well. He’s graduating and moving who knows where, and he needs to focus on his career. For a large part of the book, it was Peyton not wanting to get invested in a relationship that might not have a future.

There’s Levi’s shitty family, but that’s not relevant till later on. I needed a couple more real conversations to be 100% happy with the relationship.Īs for conflicts, there were a couple. I would just have liked it be less heavy on the sex. And the dynamic between Peyton and Levi was fun and snarky and cute. He was different from what I’d expected, but in a good way. I loved his relationship with his whole family, really, but we’ll get to that. I also loved his relationship with his brother, Brady.

I liked that Peyton wasn’t a typical player, that he was so driven, and that was sweet and had a great sense of humour. Four years later, Levi transfers to Franklin U, and it turns out the chemistry and connection they had that one night is still there. Then they hooked up but went to different colleges. He and Peyton went to the same high school but never really interacted until Levi’s graduation party. His dad Talon is considered one the greatest players of all time. Peyton is the son of two football superstars who won the Super Bowl together. Let’s started with just the book on it’s own. But also, Peyton is Talon and Miller’s son! And, we were going to see Maddox again! So many things to look forward to! And the book paid off in pretty much every aspect.

This was the book I was most excited for in the series.
