 Ellie is trying to start over at her new school, which means dating her brother's teammates is a big no. But she is also hiding a secret from everyone around her, including her brother. Will her secret hurt what is building between herself and the star football player? Will everything she's worked for come crashing down around her? 
 Knox has it all and is focused on his goal of being the best on the field. Ellie offers a challenge he hasn't faced before and not even the fact that her brother is his new teammate will stand in the way. In fact, he decides her brother is the way to get closer to the girl who will hardly give him the time of day. 
 I was intrigued by the fact that while one party was a virgin, it was not the girl. She was no blushing beauty who didn't know what she wanted or what to do. But I also really liked Knox's reasoning and philosophy behind his virginity, and the fact that his team was behind him (and supported that decision) made it even more refreshing. 
 There is a great pull between Ellie and Knox and while he immediately calls her "The One," she continues to keep her distance. Though Knox was ready to go all in from the get go, he understands Ellie's hang-ups and lets her hang on to the distance...to a point. 
 I loved the support and camaraderie built between the team, and the way that extended to Ellie simply because she was related to a player. The personalities developing on the side of this story [provide great prospects for potential future stories. And watching that whole group try to give advise to Knox on how to win a girl was priceless. 
 This was such an entertaining read I found myself sneaking in reading time in every spare moment. 
 I was gifted a copy in exchange for an honest review.
