Book Overview
A joyful summer romance that Jason June, New York Times bestselling author of Out of the Blue, calls "Swoon-worthy!"
This is not how soccer-star Zack Martin thought his summer would go. When the captain's prank means trouble for the whole squad, Zack's left with no choice but to take one for the team and cover for him.
Now he's trading parties and beach days for community service at a seaside conservation center--fair enough. But thanks to his new reputation, the cute intern, Chip, won't even give him a shot. Still, Zack finds himself falling for Chip between dolphin encounters and shark costume disasters, which means he suddenly has way more on the line than he ever expected.
Zack may be good at winning on the field, but can he keep up the lie without losing himself?

A bit conflicted
Published by MizzyRed , 1 year ago
I am a bit conflicted about this book. Yes, it did keep my interest, but not because of Zach. He was a bit irritating though he did get better by the second half of the book. I kept reading because I was interested in Chip (though Richard was a better name) and because of Zach's friends who helped him so much, even with the stupid mistake of taking the fall for Ryan's prank gone wrong. I wanted to yell at Zach so much for believing Ryan and doing everything he said so that he could be 2.0. That being said, Zach was much better by the end and was prioritizing things in the more right order and so I was happy for him and the ending.
The thing I liked most about this book was how normalized the relationships were. You could like a boy or a girl and it wasn't a big deal. That was so refreshing and how the real world should be. So, to me this book was a 3.5 rounded up for this point.
