First and foremost Thank you NetGalley & St. Martin's Press for the arc! I am truly grateful and it is oh so appreciated.

OH MY LANTA! Ki has truly outdone herself with Game On. I honestly had such a blast reading this and it was such a ride from start to finish and I was sad when I finished it. I don't know how Ki is able to do it, but every book she writes, she has me falling in love her characters, side characters and all. She has a way of connecting and making real life struggles/problems into her stories that makes everything seem so relatable and just more loveable.

The connection and vulnerability between Hudson and Ella is oh so wonderful and they are literally perfection. The way they didn't pressure each other, always had each other's backs in figuring out themselves and what they wanted as individuals as well as a couple. It was all so genuine and REAL and seeing them show up for each other without being asked to was simply amazing. The pace of their relationship was just everything, it all flowed so well and I could have read another 500 pgs and it wouldn't have been enough.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again - I'll read anything and everything by Ki. It could be her grocery list and it would get 5 stars. Her writing and her stories are out of this world and just so amazing and Game On just solidifies this. I don't know what else to say other than this book was fun, sweet, spicy, swoony, all of the emotions and written so well. Everyone needs to read this when it releases and I swear y'all won't be disappointed.

This is the kind of book that has you grinning, swooning, and maybe screaming into your pillow a little. A fun, flirty, can’t-put-it-down romance that delivers everything.

🚨ARC Review Drop!🚨
I’ve read my fair share of sports romance novels over the years, but this one? It completely surprised me—in the best way possible! 🙌
This book takes a bold twist on the genre with a footballer-turned-cheerleader storyline (yes, you read that right!) and somehow manages to be both totally unique and satisfyingly classic. I didn’t know how I’d feel going in, but WOW—I was hooked from the very first meet-cute.
It all kicks off with a one-night stand that sparks off-the-charts chemistry between Ella and Hudson 🔥 From there, you’re taken on a journey not just of romance, but of ambition, growth, and chasing dreams.
And okay, can we PLEASE talk about the side characters? cough Levi cough—I’m gonna need his story next 👀
If you’re into sports romance and looking for something fresh that still hits all the feels, do yourself a favor and pick this one up. You won’t regret it 💯💋

This story was such a perfect blend of tension, fun, and slow-burning feelings that I couldn’t stop smiling the whole way through. There’s something so addictive about a no-strings-attached setup that you know is about to go up in flames, and watching Ella and Hudson try so hard to keep things casual while falling harder with every stolen glance had me absolutely hooked. The writing has an effortless rhythm, packed with wit and heart, and the whole story has that cozy, feel-good pulse I never want to leave. It was fun, heartfelt, and every bit as swoony as I hoped.
