The recruiting trip follows a very promising athlete, Aileen, on her weekend visit to the University of Gatica. She heads there with no intention of committing to this school, but rather, she hopes to meet one of the university's stars, Tyler.

The Good: I liked the characters, there were so many great characters. Tyler was the golden boy and Aileen was just the right combination of sassy, confident and insecure. I greatly enjoyed their interactions. Though, my favorite character was one of the supporting characters, Jani. She was quite amusing and I hope to see more of her in the books that follow. The story was also very promising. I was a runner in high school, so I loved when Aileen would wax poetic about track and field. You could really feel how much she loved the sport and all it did for her.

This is a really short read, I more or less finished it on my commute home. BUT it did take place in one weekend, so how long could it be without the storyline suffering. I think this is a promising start to a great new series.
