    This was a cute, sweet, spicy sapphic soccer romance. And I loved it. There was such an easy flow to the book that kept me invested and kept me reading. I enjoyed the two main characters and the differences between them. I've seen it referred to as enemies to lovers, but I don't totally get that vibe.
