Eric, the wayward pastor's son, was not taken seriously in any capacity. Girls saw him as "fun" and "not boyfriend material". The boosters saw him as a mediocre pitcher with a bad image. Bri, the overachieving girl next door, was trying to escape a toxic relationship, while still living with the stigma left from her mother's abandonment. Circumstances bring them back into each other's lives, and together they heal and become the best version of themselves.

This was a rather sweet love story. Better than that, it was a redemption story, a story of moving on, and a story of healing. Both MCs were scarred in some way, and their friendship had also suffered. As they mended their friendship, they also healed. I really loved their friendship. In fact, the book is filled with many beautiful relationships, that were so varied, but still important. Smith did a great job creating these two characters, because I felt so much for these two. I shared their hopes, fears, joy, and sadness.

Overall: very sweet romance with characters I cared for and would have loved to have heard a little more about.

This was so, so adorable! Just like Play On, Game On was both very sweet and cute, but also realistic and dealt with tougher topics. I loved Eric and Bri's stories, they both seemed so genuine and down to earth, like people you'd actually want to spend time with. Neither was without fault though, which made the story feel incredibly authentic. I am usually pretty hard to please with contemporary romance in general, but this series has totally won me over! And I dare say I may even like Game On better than its predecessor, which is saying quite a bit, since I loved it too. Clearly, I recommend!
