This is the first book in a brand new series, Players Game, by Rachel Van Dyken. It’s such a fantastic start!

This is a second chance read.

I absolutely love Emerson. She’s a bigger girl, but she owns it. She is athletic. She’s a cheerleader and can run laps around the tiny cheerleaders. Her dreams are finally coming true. She’s now a Bucks cheerleader. A professional NFL cheerleader!

Sanchez is THE wide receiver of the league. He’s a playboy. He’s a good guy though. Well, except for the bet and calling “dibs”.

Miller was Emerson’s first. He was her bestfriend, until he wasn’t anymore. There’s a lot that happened there. But, Miller is back now. He’s been traded and now plays for the Bucks.

Both guys are great! I loved both of them and can’t wait for more. I really want Jax’s book.

I’m a huge Seahawks fan and you can tell Rachel is also by the way she describes the Bucks’ fans. They are just like us 12s. Loud and Proud!

I received a copy via Netgalley

I had to check out this novel knowing Rachel’s previous novels and how witty they were. She definitely has the banter going on in this one as well. Fraternize is a sports novel and has a love triangle. The first topic is not my favorite but it works in this novel. We get to see both aspects of football and cheerleading. Rachel created three very different characters, each with their own issues and all very likeable. Emerson wasn’t the typical cheerleader, when it came to body image, and I really liked that.

What I didn’t like was that the story seemed to drag on a bit. There was a point in the story that I believed was coming to a close but a dramatic event was thrown in. I felt like it wasn’t necessary.

Still Fraternize still had many great aspects. Like the character connections. With Miller and Emerson’s interactions, I could easily see the ease in which they interacted. I could tell that they were close from the beginning. We got history with a few scenes. When it came to Sanchez and Emerson, I loved the chemistry between them. How Sanchez was so sure of himself but at the same time I could see there was more in his personality.

Overall, it was an enjoyable read.

This book is so much more then I ever could have hoped for. If I could give it more then 5 stars I would. While told in dual POV it is different then a normal romance book.

Emerson isn't your normal cheerleader, I love that she isn't a size 2 and short, she is an average girl with dreams for being an NFL cheerleader. It has been her dream since she was a kid, she was going to cheer for the Bucks and Miller was going to be a star player for them. Miller moved away before they finished high school and while they said they would always be close something happened and they lost touch...and of course both thing the other just abandoned them. Well, what do you know, Miller gets traded to the Bucks at the same time Emerson becomes a cheerleader for them. Emerson is a girl so many of us can relate to, body issues, insecurities, etc.

At the same time she meets Sanchez, a wide receiver for the Bucks and he has his eye set on Emerson....she wants nothing to do with football players after things with Miller....she also runs into Miller. Awkward to say the least. But I love this dynamic between the three of them and this little love triangle.

But this book is about more then just which guy does Emerson end up with. It is a book about longing, forgiving, realizing truths, growing and even friendship above all else. Sometimes you think someone is your soul mate and then reality happens...can you find your way back or was that one just a detour? Miller really grew and realized things throughout this book, and while it was hard to watch, it was very much necessary. While Emerson had trust issues she also learned to open up and let people in. Kinsey I also really liked and I loved her dynamic with her brother Jax on the team. There were so many great side characters that add another layer to this story which is always nice to see.

I don't think this book is really about may the best man win because I think both Grant and Miller have wonderful things to offer a woman, but the question is, is Emerson the right woman for them?

The book sucks you in from the very first page and I even started crying at one part...you can't help but be drawn to these characters and can see yourself in Emerson that you just want her happiness to be there...you don't want either guy to be sad and left behind though either, so it is one of those books where you can't help but like they all at the end but of course the right man wins out. The attention to details is right there and the plot is so great.

So overall
Football - CHECK
2 Hot Guys - CHECK
an amazing heroine - CHECK
great friends - CHECK
Plot - CHECK
It has everything you want in a book plus so much more. This is a must read of 2017.

Emerson has always dreamed of following in the footsteps of her mother and being a professional cheerleader however success has never been hers. She hasn’t given up and this time she was accepted as part of the Bellevue Bucks cheer squad even though she does not fit the mold of the average cheerleader as she is much curvier.

On her first day of practice she meets the sexy playboy and team captain Grant. His cocky attitude and his killer smile is at opposites with the sensitive and sweet man that he is but she feels with his looks and personality he belongs with a model not her.

Miller was her best friend and first love until his family moved away and lost contact. Now he is also back in her life as he is a member of the team however she blames him for not keeping in touch and not being there at the lowest point of her life although there is much more to the story than either realizes. The feelings that they had for each other are still there and now she must decide if her future belongs to her first love Miller or her new love Grant who does everything he can to show that they belong together and with the no fraternization rule does this mean the end of her dream?

Although you know that she isn’t going to end up with both your heart still feels for the one left behind. The good news is that they all end up as friends and I believe the right choice was made but you will need to decide for yourself. I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

Eek, I really enjoyed this book and have to say it's up there as being one of my favourites from RVD.
I honestly couldn't put this book down and read it start to finish.

I'm generally not a big fan of love triangle stories but for me it didn't really feel like a love triangle. I loved all the characters in this story and that never happens with me in this type of story as you always favour one over an other but every character in this book is solid, likeable and will grab a little bit of your heart.

Fraternize spans a number of tropes but most importantly, it's a really enjoyable story that will have you hooked. There's light and shade as the humour and angst effortlessly offset each other and the characters and are well developed.

I laughed, cried and finished this book with a big smile on my face - roll on Infraction.

4.5 stars for this stand alone gem

~4.5 stars

Fraternize is a fantastic new book from Rachel Van Dyken. She has done something no one has ever done. This is the first book where there was two men in the running for the leading lady and I COULDN'T CHOOSE ONE! I was one minute #teamMiller and then the next I was #teamSanchez. It was a complete roller coaster and at the end I trusted the journey and Rachel did not disappoint. I couldn't put this book down. It was funny, swoon worthy, addicting and just the book I was looking for lately. I can not wait for Infraction to come out. I am dying to get my hands on the next book. Great start to what will be an amazing series Rachel!

One thing I always worry about when I have a highly anticipated read is being letdown or the book not living up to my own personal hype. Fraternize was such a book and I can say it far exceed my own expectations and has become one of my favorite books of the year!

There is nothing I love more then football and add romance to the mix and I'm sold. Fraternize is more then a sports romance book. It's a story of personal acceptance, a story of lose, mistakes and a story of healing and allowing yourself to love again.

Emerson is the girl who plays by her own set of rules She doesn't let the size of her waist keep her from her dream of being an NFL cheerleader. However a dream always comes with the price and that price is a ghost from her past, Miller. They were best friends turned more, but lost it all over a miscommunication. They both harbor anger and bitterness over what went down, but they can't deny that the passion is still there.

Emerson is such a fighter. She is a girl that always had the deck stacked against her, but she would never give up or play the role others expected of her. She would do whatever it takes to make her dream come true. She suffered a horrible heartbreak and loss at a young age, but she never let that keep her down.

While Emerson went on with life, it was only a shell of life, unable to find closure with her past with Miller she has kept her heart on locked down, not wanting to suffer another heartbreak. Emerson life is turned upside down by the arrival of Sanchez. He's the bad boy star of NFL and he has set his sights on Emerson and wont take no for an answer.

I loved Sanchez. He was a like a Hurricane blowing into both Emerson and Miller's life. forcing both of them to deal with their past and to come to terms with what happened. Sanchez always put a smile and my face whenever he come onto the page! He was sexy, cocky, funny and truly a "bad" boy with a heart of gold.

As past, present and future collide a decision must be made. Miller is ready to put the past behind and move forward with Emerson, to pick up where they left off, but the choice is not so easy for Emerson. While she can't deny her feelings for Miller, a new factor has entered the equation with the name of Sanchez. As Emerson begins to heal from her pain and finds closure from her past, she has a tough decisions to make, does her future lie with the guy who got away or does her future lie with the guy who is in her present.

Emerson is finally seeing her dreams come true: cheering for professional football. She has a whole rule book to follow that make her question her dream, especially as she is not the traditional professional cheerleader body type -- she’s got curves. Most of the rules aren’t too bad, but the fraternization rule quickly becomes a challenge when she meets Grant Sanchez, one of the team captains. And shortly thereafter runs into someone from her past she thought she’d never see again: her ex best friend and first love, Miller Quinton.

I liked Emerson’s character. She is determined and focused on her goals, while also keeping her small family afloat. She has to work hard to provide for herself and her father and though she has very little free time, cheering is important to her so she makes it work.

The guys were each harder to love in their own ways. I loved that Miller had returned after so many years away, and as the pieces of their past are uncovered I couldn’t help but love him even more.

Grant Sanchez was very much the stereotypical overconfident professional athlete, but he also was very goal oriented and loyal to his team.

There were times I couldn’t decide which guy I was rooting for, and other times I had a clear leader in my head. There were even times that clear leader switched places for me. I wasn’t prepared for a full on love triangle, and think I struggled more than I needed to with that aspect of the story.

This was a fun, sporty triangle with strong friends to lovers ties. The side characters added a lot of fun to what was already an entertaining story. Though I wasn’t always sure which team I was on, I knew this was a story I had to consume and am looking forward to more from this series.

I was gifted a copy in exchange for an honest review.

I loathe love triangles with every fiber of my being. If I ever read a book’s synopsis and see a love triangle in there, I will run far away from that book faster than you can say run.

I hate them because they’re; a) way too predictable, b) sometimes someone ends up dying, c) there’s this one character who is always a jerk, d) cheating takes place and e) I end up hating every single character in the story.

That said, I decided to pick up this book because the cover looked amazing and it went over my head that there are two guys in there and I totally didn’t even glance at the synopsis.

Yes, I am judge-a-book-by-its-cover criminal.

But guess what? Turns out this book is actually EFFING INCREDIBLE and if it weren’t for my judging-a-book-by-its-cover tendencies I wouldn’t be here telling the world Fraternize has officially made it to my list of “Favorite Books of 2017”.



Emerson is a mature twenty-four year old who does not play with people’s feelings. She’s been hurt—hurt is definitely an understatement—in the past. Eighteen-year-old Emerson went from having a best friend and a healthy father and a house to zero friends, a father with Alzheimer’s, a small apartment and a broken heart.
Six years after her heart got destroyed things finally start looking up. Emerson’s dream of becoming a professional cheerleader comes true and the cocky Grant Sanchez catches her happy-crying in the parking lot, which then leads to a very interesting conversation. Unfortunately, the happiness is short-lived because the very next day Miller Quinton (Emerson’s former best friend and the cause of her broken heart) makes an appearance. Miller is not happy to see Emery again. But why? He’s the one who broke her heart not the other way around. Or was he?



Every single love triangle I read makes me hate The Female Character who can’t woman up and decide who she wants to stay with. I hate that said character is a mess of epic proportions and plays with everyone’s feelings—including mine—and refuses to listen no matter how loudly I scream at the book.

Well, lo and behold, Fraternize doesn’t have The Female Character. It has Emerson Rodner.

Emerson is someone I aspire to be. Curvy? Yes, please. God knows I need an ass like hers. Witty and funny? One can never be too witty and funny. Athletic? Heck, I wish I could walk up the stairs and not lose a lung in the process. Intelligent? Duh! And have two extremely sexy football players eating out of the palm of my hand? Sign me up!

I don’t even want to get started with Miller and Sanchez’s characters because I will cry and I’ll be here all day but there’s something I will say because y’all need to read it. Both of them are AMAZING. I love them both. I have never in my life felt so happy to read a love triangle story and that is because of these two men. They respect the heck out of Emerson and each other. They are MEN. I have never felt so many butterflies going around in my stomach as I did when I was reading about these guys. I pray to my lucky stars I find someone like them in real life because otherwise I’m completely ruined.



In other news, I’m happy to announce that Fraternize is not predictable at all. Whatever it is you’re imagining will happen? Forget it. It will not happen. From prologue to epilogue the story will keep you on the edge of your seat. And you will not be able to put it down. And you have no clue what the heck is coming your way.

Rachel’s writing is impeccable. The way she makes you feel like you’re in Emerson’s shoes is mind-blowing. She made me want to re-read this book and I hadn’t even finished it. How crazy is that?! I just want to live inside this book forever.


Y’all should pick this book up right about now because I have never grinned so big in my life and I want you to experience that happiness for yourself. Even if you hate love triangles like me. Even if you hate romance. Even if you hate football players. Even if you hate cheerleaders. Even if you hate this review that’s all over the place.

Loved this book! It has three of the best characters I’ve ever read. All three were super decent human beings, generous, kind-hearted, open-minded and loyal. The plot involves a love triangle, yet instead of anger or selfishness, there’s generosity of the heart, a bottomless love, of the friend kind, and of the sexy kind. The love triangle consisted of two men vying for the love of one woman.

Miller and Emerson were friends since they were seven years old, later sweethearts. After his mother died, his military father moved him away to Georgia and they lost contact. He hated her for what he felt was her abandonment; she felt he abandoned her, but instead she was hurt and devastated. When he was drafted to play football for the Bellevue Bucks in Washington state, his hometown, they meet up again, six years after their separation.

Emerson finally achieved her life dream of joining the Bucks cheerleaders. She had trouble making the cut because she’s heavier than the other girls. However, she’s healthy and in good physical shape, so she withstands the hard physical training as well or better than the other skinny cheerleaders. Her father used to be a brilliant university professor with a PhD and they lived in a nice lakeside house, but he lost his job because he suffers from Alzheimer's.  Now, roles have changed and Emerson is in charge of the household and medical debts. She has the cheerleaders practices and an online teaching job, so they now live in a ratty apartment. Her father made her promise to pursue her dream of joining the cheerleaders, no matter how sick he got or how strained their finances became. So she’s cheerleading to comply but has a heavy load in her heart.

On her first cheerleading practice, she meets Grant Sanchez.  The best receiver in the NFL.  Upon meeting, he declares they are best friends, and to the team he declares dibs.  Miller resents Sanchez's interest in Emerson but since he's still in hate phase, he doesn't protest.  What was incredible is that, even though Sanchez is making a blatant play for Emerson's affections, and Miller is dying of jealousy, still Sanchez and Miller connect as team partners and brothers and play in perfect synchrony.  They even become great friends.

The action of the book is a brilliant manipulation of emotions of these three characters.  Soon Miller and Emerson learn they were conned by Miller's father and they make up and become best friends again. Sanchez is hot in his pursuit of Emerson and he changes his style.  He's not the playboy persona he used to be, he's now sensitive, compassionate, attentive, and pushy.  Emerson was very taken at the beginning with Miller, she had a lot of regret and yearning for what they used to have.  However, Sanchez is front and center in her life whenever she has a problem, solving them with an intuitiveness that Miller doesn't have.  The change in balance of affection from Miller to Sanchez is very subtle, Miller goes through stages where he wants to assert his stake, then accept he's not the best man, and conform to being her best friend again.  Sanchez was constant and pushy. Emerson makes a gradual change in affections, but it's totally credible because it wasn't overnight, it happened over several incidents that solidified Sanchez lead. Yet, Emerson and Sanchez still have to process their newfound love.

Another thing I loved about this book was the diversity shown.  Emerson was beautiful but big size.  Miller had "mocha colored skin with clear blue eyes". Sanchez was normal, just huge, cut, and green eyes. Oh and rich LOL.  It was a great read, the page-turner type, and I enjoyed every line, every page.

I have read a couple of Rachel Van Dyken's books before, and the characters are always witty, funny, and have more layers than you first think. Emerson, Miller, and Sanchez are no exception.

From the blurb I really thought this would be a regular love triangle story. While romantic relationships do play a part, friendship and learning to move on from the past take the forefront. It made the story a lot more interesting, and a lot easier to root for all the characters.

Emerson was a great female lead because she went for her dreams even when she felt insecure. She really grows up and makes a lot of progress throughout the book.

I am really looking forward to the rest of the series!

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for providing an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

It's always a good day when I get to start a Rachel Van Dyken book. Seriously, I don't need to read the blurbs anymore; I love her writing and she never fails to make me smile with her guys. Saying that, I did read the blurb for Fraternize and I was a little nervous about whether the love triangle would work for me or whether it would be cliched.

I really shouldn't have worried. I should know this author better by now, since she has yet to disappoint me.

Anyway, Fraternize was a comical read I sped through. It reminded me a bit of her book The Consequences of Loving Colton with more humour and great relationships between a cast of characters. I loved Grant--totally team Grant by the way. He made me chuckle from the first time I met him. He reminded me of an excitable puppy you just want to befriend. And the more I read about him the more I liked him.

I won't ruin the plot by delving into the relationship and what happens. You guys deserve to experience Em's relationships and the paths she takes with the guys on your own so you can make your own mind up about which team you're on. What I will say is the dynamic between the three kept me hooked. Rachel did a good job of avoiding too many cliches and creating relationships that I genuinely believed in and engaged me. I liked all of the characters and can't wait for more.

Overall, I loved this book. Reading it in the sun was the perfect way to end the day. I also hope there's going to be another because I need that guy's story as soon as possible!

Keep your hands inside the ride at all times...

I'm having trouble putting into word what this book did to me. First off, I love this author. Everything she puts out I devour and when I'm done reading, I'm always wishing there was more of the book to read. I hate that it has to end.

Ms. Van Dyken wields a sword of words and slices me open exposing all the feels. This book was no different. I cried...God, I cried so much. This was not your typical love triangle. The characters were layered and had so much heart.

I was littered with feelings throughout this wonderful love story. The thoughts of the heroine were some of the same thoughts that I’ve had pinging around in my head regarding body image. I loved that the hero(s) loved her body just the way it was.

There was a twist I didn’t see it coming. The wild ride this book took me on was stunning and I not only didn’t want to put it down, I never wanted it to end.

If you are looking for a book that gives you the feels and also makes you think, this is the book to read.

So I’ve seen this author around for a while and have always wanted to pick up one of her books and I’m so thoroughly thrilled that I finally had the chance. Rachel Van Dyken is quite addicting, this book was nothing what I expected. I didn’t think it would flow the way it did but I was pleasantly surprised. Definitely a book you should pick up, because it’s worth it.

We meet Emerson and Miller during their high school years through flashbacks, which I love because sometimes you just need a little bit of history thrown in to make that story that much more powerful. The two were inseparable but things happened and as you can imagine they grew apart. Fast forward a couple years and here they are face to face again, both still very hurt but both still very much loving each other.

I don’t want to give too much of the plot away because really you have to read it. Just throw in a really hot new player into the mix and this love triangle gets more and more interesting each page you turn. There was a lot going on this book, not only the romance throughout but also the different forms of friendship, comraderies, strong connection for being on a team, family issues and even bullying. This book touched a little bit upon all of that. Also status in life, where someone had more than the other, that’s always a tough subject matter as well.

I enjoyed Emerson’s story, I felt for her throughout the book she became a real person to me and I could relate to the character as well as ride the different waves of emotions she was going through. Again it really didn’t end up like I thought it would like every other typical romance or contemporary I’ve ever read but I was really pleasantly surprised. Sometimes you don’t’ really meet your true love in high school, sometimes things have to happen for you to experience life and then things seem to fall into place during the hardest time in your life.

I wholly enjoyed this book. The cover is absolutely eye catching, after all who doesn’t love a good love triangle? The story was amazing and had me so hooked that I had to finish it within 24 hours, I stayed up real late for this one but I couldn’t put it down. The setting is great, football players, cheerleaders, best friends, new friends and life experiences with realities of family thrown in to make it just that much more realistic. Must read. I want to talk more about the book but don’t’ really want to give too much away.

Wow! That was completely unexpected. I've read a few of Rachel Van Dykens romcoms and loved them so I jumped at the chance to read this newest from her. What I wasn't expecting was how emotional this book was going to be. It was very funny and I had a lot of laugh out loud moments, but I also cried in a couple of scenes. This had a great balance of humor and seriousness.

Im not a fan of love triangles and the only reason I gave this a shot was because of the author. As you can see by my 5 Star rating, I loved it! It's not what I was expecting of a love triangle. I actually felt everyone was where they should be at the end. I didn't feel sorry for the one that didn't get chosen. It's not to say I wasn't conflicted, because I loved all the characters! There was no bad guy in this story. Well, except for a teammate that stirred a bit of trouble for them, but the author closed this up very nicely.

I hope this doesn't spoil anything but I feel like I have to mention that the author shocked me with who Emerson ends up with. I thought I knew where this story was going and then it dawned on me at one particular moment in the book that I was wrong. I had to stop reading and think back to the all the previous moments and see it with new eyes. I kind of love that! It was pretty brilliant and the reason why this went from 4 to 5 stars.

When I said the author wrapped this up nicely? That's the reason I wasn't sad about who lost out. We got to see him open his eyes and see someone else which I assume was the teaser for the new next book. I'm so invested in these people that I can't wait! ARC provided by NetGalley.

3.5 Stars

Emerson, poor baby. What were you to do? Enjoy the ride and hope for the best. Let you heart do the choosing for you and build from a past that left two people broken. Yep, that is what happened. Grant and Miller were two of the most heart-felt, swoon worthy men on the planet. Why would a girl NOT want to see what could be. Shoot, I want to be in the middle and call it a Mayas sandwich.

I enjoyed it RVD and I look forward to what is in the cards next for Emerson (non choice)

4.5 stars

I should know by now to not start any Rachel Van Dyken book at 12:02 AM. I should after having binge read many of her books. I have even suffered reread hangovers. I SHOULD KNOW BETTER! I did it anyway.

So here I am bleary eyed with a raging headache and a ridiculous smile on my face. Fraternize is the feel good sports romance it seems like with a sassy cheerleader with huge lady balls and an unrepentant playboy player. (I know it's sounds redundant but it isn't, not really.)

Think attitudes, cocky smirks, and the sweetest things imaginable and you are part way there lol. I said he is a cocky unrepentant playboy not a saint. With a smirk like that, he would never make sainthood. Although...nope- can't say it.
(Sanchez may have whispered "I get confused with deities all the time.") Let's not forget the one who got away...

So it's a face off right...no contest, right? Wrong. You will learn that feelings aren't a choice. Even if two of the hottest guys on the planet are duking it out...only one will win. Sigh, I may have wished for a menage so hard but with these three it will only be in my dreams. (Yours too.)

Sexy, sweet, and my new best friends forever Sanchez and Miller would make me happy for the rest of MY life. Too bad I'm not the girl they are interested in...sigh!

So may the best man win Player of the Year or something even better!

I must admit that I began reading the books by Rachel Van Dyken after finding out that her "Matchmaker" series would become a movie by Passionflix! Seeing this beauty on Netgalley I seized the chance!

And it was...AMAZING! No love triangle, no back and forth between characters! The cover too can be decieving but the story is sweet, very funny and emotional. I loved Emerson and her battle to seize her dream! Rarely you see a plus, curvy heroine in NA, not to mention on YA (Trust by Kylie Scott is the only example which comes to my mind)

Sanchez? He was a sexy, cute character. Miller? He needed some time to overcome his past but the closure he and Emerson got was a healthy, good one. The banter between characters was very enjoyable and I never got bored.

I'll be waiting anxiously for the next book! ;)

5 stars is not a high enough rating to do this book justice. It was pure perfection and I absolutely loved it. The characters were amazing. This book made me feel as if I was a cheerleader cheering on the sidelines. Cheering for each character, the team as a whole and their relationships. I had so many laugh out loud moments and smiled so much while reading that my face actually hurt. I finished this book in one sitting and I highly recommend this book to everyone who loves a good sports romance. This book will not disappoint. This is one of those books where no review will ever do it the justice it deserves, because its that amazing. It's sweet, funny, sexy, corny, unpredictable and simply perfect. There is no doubt that when the next book in this series comes out it will be my top purchase. I can't wait to see what happens next.

Emerson finds her dream of becoming a cheerleader for the Bucs possibly coming true. She has been turned away the last couple of years and thinks her size plays a role in their decision. She has curves for days and will never be a size two. She is astounded when the teams wide receive, Sanchez, notices her. She is leery of all football players since she was abandoned by Miller when he had to move away her senior year of high school.

Miller finds himself traded to the Bucs and is surprised to see Emerson cheering on the sidelines with the cheerleaders. He has held his own anger and resentment towards Emerson for the last 6 years since he feels she abandoned him.

Sanchez is known for dating and dumping cheerleaders and participates in a bet with his teammates that has the potential to come back and haunt him. He knows Emerson is different but is surprised at how different she is. He has been burned in the past also so he knows what Emerson needs to do to move on. He offers her a shoulder to cry on, an ear to listen to and his body to use if she wants. He slowly starts to get Emerson to let him in and was quick to assure he that he would not only understand anything she said, it wouldn't make a difference as to how he felt about her.

I don't want to give away what happens in this book since the dynamic of the three of them needs to be read while going in blind. I did think the book was going to go a certain way and was pleasantly surprised to find myself leaning a different way. Overall a good read with some twists and turns that kept it interesting. I enjoyed all 3 of the main characters and found myself smiling at the end. I received an ARC from NetGalley for my honest review.
