Beck and Jason were both interesting characters. Between the seasoned openly out generally bubbly QB, and his younger more introverted suffering from anxiety rival, there was more than a spark, and they had things to learn from each other. And they did. But it took so long! I get it, their opposite personalities didn’t help with communication, but if misunderstanding was a sports, they’d be gold medal. As their intimate and public interactions were so contradictory, it wasn’t exactly a surprise.
Their relationship was riddled with cliché moments, ultimately lessening the impact it had on me. I mean, there were cute moments, and sexy moments, and some angst too, but I was never surprised neither by the obstacles they met, nor the resolution. I didn’t feel enough tension to keep me on the edge of my seat.
I loved the sports side of the story. We see a lot of Beck and Jason with their respective teammates. They also speak together about what their role is as a QB, and as a celebrity. The radio show was an interesting touch–though I failed to see the interest after a couple of shows if I was to listen to such a show, let alone a whole season. That’s where Beck’s anxiety became important.
As we slowly learn more about him, we can see how it came to be, and why it has such an impact on his professional life. It was interesting to see him coming to term with it and finding ways to cope. Of course, Jason is mostly responsible for that, which make the couple a little tighter in my opinion.
Steamy moments involving a virgin character–any kind of virginity–are always difficult to write. They’re supposed to discover every aspect one after another, which makes it look a bit like a play by play, or a check list. Unfortunately, it’s a lot like that here. I felt it made those sexy times less sexy and more educational.
The narrators were both really good, and perfectly cast, with one cocky and playful, the other more vulnerable and quiet. But–yes, I had a problem even with the narration–the voice each did for the other narrator’s character didn’t fit at all with the other narrator’s voice for them, and I had trouble associating the character with the voice.
It wasn’t a bad book overall, but it didn’t meet my expectations.
