Let me begin with how much I absolutely this series, it's definitely one of those series that I'll have a tough time letting go of once Adriana decides to end it. I've read Cross in the Team Player Anthology that was released months ago, which was seriously the best anthology I have ever read in the romance genre. I loved every single novella in there! Second chance romances are my favorite tropes to read, I love the bit of heartbreak between the characters, owning up to mistakes they've made, watching each learn and grow, but most of all, seeing them get their happily ever after.
Kallie leaving her hometown and calling it quits with Cross was probably the best and worst thing that has happened to the both of them. Fast forward some years and Kallie returns home, and Cross isn't the same guy she left behind. Cross losing Kallie was the biggest wake-up and since that day, he found his purpose to make something better of himself. Being someone that Kallie deserves.
Guysss, I loved Cross so much! I appreciate a hero who can own up to his mistakes and prove himself he's a better person by his actions. I loved how relentless he was to get Kallie back and I totally understood her hang-ups about getting back with him. But everything between them is there, the love and the passion, it was like it never diminished.
The supporting characters were absolutely hilarious through Kallie and Cross's journey to their HEA. Small town people are so dang nosey and all up in your business, but I loved seeing his best friends be supportive of him and reminding him of how devastated he was when Kallie left. It's clear that they want him to be happy even though Kallie is Cross's end game, there's no stopping him.
I was completely hooked on their story, Cross and Kallie are both characters you can love. You'll definitely be rooting for the both of them the entire time. As usual, I hate novellas because I'm constantly begging for more.
It was such a sweet and quick read, fans of this series and Adriana Locke will love Cross.
There are two bonus stories which will leave you begging, AGAIN, for more!
