This is the first in a new college sports series by Beth Bolden and the first book I have read by her. This features Brody Faulkner a hockey player and Dean Scott a football player at Portland University. They end up as roommates and seem to have similar work ethic and are focused on their school work and planning for their futures. So they end up as a pretty good roommate match but there begins to be an underlying attraction that they eventually decide to test with an experiment with a kiss. And the experiment blows up in their faces, making them question everything they thought about themselves and each other. They think they can keep things casual and just be friends-with-benefits and keep things compartmentalized. But hot times lead to confusion and crushes and hidden feelings. They are not sure what the other thinks or feels or what their choices could mean for their futures. This is a journey of self-discovery for both and a double bi-awakening. They come from different backgrounds and have different pressures about the future. Dean has only one plan to change his life. Brody is trying to figure out what he wants his future to look like. And they never expected that this year was going to change everything. I really liked this couple and they were both just so likable, sweet, determined, and caring. And they had such intense chemistry, even if they were a bit mixed up with all the messy feelings. There are some interesting guys on the hockey team and coaches that seem to have stories brewing for the next books in the series. There are cameos from other books. It was a sweet and spicy start to this new series.
