This is a sweet…SWEET love story between Fred (she’s a girl) and Ryan who start out as enemies. Fred is a Native American Indian who is going to an almost all white high school and has successfully kept herself under the radar until the high’s school golf coach notices her excellent swing. He proceeds to beg (practically on his knees) for her to join the all-boys team. Unfortunately, to make room for her the coach has to kick out Ryan’s best friend from the team.
Cue the drama…
Fred faces twice the discrimination. One by being a girl and two for being Native American. She is bullied and accosted by, not only her teammates, but by their hangers-on. All of which she tried to ignore. I wish it would have been more..
At first, Ryan does nothing to defend Fred from his team mates but he slowly starts to respect her no nonsense demeanor and grace under constant pressure.
Now… Ryan’s best friend Seth on the other hand…
And Ryan’s bootie call Gwyneth
The whole time I read this book I was like…
And sometimes…
And there were some parts with Seth that was like
But in the end….
It was a great YA novels with the heat level at a solid mild. It has references to drinking and drugs but not explicitly expressed. The writing was so great and the angst level grabbed you that you really don’t miss the sex scenes.
Filing this one under Favorite for sure.
