About the book:
Morgan Bentley is good at getting attention, except from those she wants it from most. The 18-year-old daughter of one of Boston's wealthiest business moguls, she's been trending and influencing since the day she was born. And for a while, the privilege and ease that came along with fame was enough. But as Morgan grew up, being thought of as the pretty face who told the masses what to wear and where to be seen wasn't what she really wanted out of life. She wanted to be taken seriously. From the public, and more importantly, from her father.
James Fuentes might be the most talented quarterback to ever throw on the Welles Academy field. His dad, the new Welles head coach, is counting on it--both to shut up the inevitable critics accusing him of playing his son over the competition and to ensure James gets into one of the best business colleges in the country. While the gridiron comes easy to James, though, the classroom is another story. And his big business dreams are riding on his football talent to get his foot in an Ivy League door. All he needs is a winning season and grades that are good enough.
James has always had a problem with distractions, however, and Morgan Bentley is the most tempting of all. Confident, beautiful, curvy and the literal object of every guy on campus' fantasies, Morgan is impossible to ignore. What starts as innocent flirtation and a crush grows into the only meaningful relationship either of them has. And before they realize it, feelings are involved.
But being the center of attention--and gossip--comes with risk. Morgan knows this better than anyone. Reputation is everything at Welles Academy, and rumors have a way of taking people down. Even the truest of loves might not stand a chance when whispers start to circle. But what good is all that fame and power if you can't use it to satisfy your own heart when it's on the verge of breaking?
Caroline's Reviewππππ
Overall, this was a great read.
"I think Morgan Bentley isn't a distraction but rather a complicated girl with a lot of good in her heart, and one I'd really like to get to know."
James Fuentes is the new QB contender at Welles. He's there by virtue of his father being the new football coach. He has deeply personal ambitions to fulfil and his one clear route is aiming for a place at a D1 university. However, obstacles and distractions litter his path, not least the hostile existing QB. And, then, there's the wealthy social media influencer, Morgan Bentley.
"Your soul's perfect, James Fuentes. F*cking perfect."
Morgan is dealing with her own demons. She's hiding from her social media, her relationship with her parents is fractured and unhealthy, and she's struggling with her mental health. James affects her like no one else before because he sees the real Morgan beyond her public façade.
"My dad sees you as a distraction. I see you as a necessity."
So, I found this story a little slow in places but, in others, it was beautiful and heartfelt. James and Morgan were young people with a lot on their shoulders. James had a lot of pressure to step up and perform well in order to follow his dreams. His dad was tough on him because there was a lot at stake, but they had a loving family. Morgan's relationship with her parents was completely dysfunctional. She was a girl crying out for some true parental support and love, and previously found adoration through her social media platform. However, there's a dark side to social media and, following the tragic accident that is the back story to all three books in this series, she had to deal with depression and anxiety. These two, who had nothing really in common, had instant attraction and found a real connection, too. For all her sophistication, it was cute how awkward Morgan felt in her early interactions with James, but I loved how they gradually found a safe place to fall with one another and that they were a balm to each other's soul.
