End Game: a best friends to lovers slow burn college football romance (X's and O's Book 3) Kindle Edition

She’s my best friend in the entire world, but there’s nothing I can do to take away the pain of her father’s slow, debilitating decline.

It’s a blessing and a curse that Diana is transferring to Newton to be closer to her family; as glad as I am that we’ll finally be in the same place, I know it will be excruciating spending time with my best friend who has no idea I’m in love with her and definitely doesn’t reciprocate my feelings.

Between mean girl teammates and her own issues, I recognize that she’s not in the right headspace for a relationship. I won’t be content with a one-night stand. That’s okay; I’ve waited this long, I can keep waiting for her to be ready.

I’m not playing chess. I’m waiting for Diana to realize what I’ve known for years: she’s my End Game.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good book just wasn't for me
Reviewed in the United States on February 12, 2023

So this is more of a 3.5 star rating.. this book was a struggle to finish. I normally love reading sports romance and with this one. I don't know. I think it was a lot of how the characters acted and the big words the author used that I had never even heard of before and had to look them up. Barrett and Diana had a special friendship and helped each other out whether it was family issues or on the field. This book focuses mostly on their friendship with a little drama,due to the horrible soccer team that Diana is on. I felt like that wasn't really shown as fixed but I let that slide. The process of friendship to love was awkward at best but it worked for them.

This book is beautiful. I’m obsessed with this book cover, it is beautiful and what drew me into to read this story. Add in friends to lovers and I’m sold. Friends so oblivious they both love each other, that you want to reach in the book and shake them. But that is what made the story interesting. I was on the edge of my seat, waiting patiently for the fireworks to go off!

💜Friends to Lovers
⚽️Soccer (her)
🏈Football (him)
💜Sports Romance
💜Slow Burn
💜Found Family

“I will always be there for you, Dee. I’d move heaven and earth to get to you.”

Barrett, beautiful beautiful man & friend! He does everything in his power to protect his best friend Diana. Who transferred schools to be closer to her dad who is sick. Transferring, is never easy. Having to start over, has taken a toll on Diana. She is so lucky to have Barrett, her best friend at school with her.

When these two get together it had my stomach dropping, it was so hot. I mean it, fireworks went off. I love them together. The attraction is there, and so much history between them, too much for them to ruin their friendship. The friendship that they share, makes them stronger as individuals. They pick each other up, and the confidence they get from one another helps guide them. This story is beautiful, steamy and everything you want from a best friends to lovers story!!! Sooo good!

5.0 out of 5 stars TL;DR Slow burn with big feels
Reviewed in the United States on February 4, 2023

The X's and O's series is quickly becoming a favorite because -- unlike other series -- none of these books are the same. They all deal with different issues and different emotions, and this slow burn (admittedly not my favorite trope) delivered on some big feels. Barrett is probably my favorite of the boys so far, and his care and affection for Dee is adorable. Dee is a little frustrating at times, but when are we women *not* frustrating when we don't know exactly what we want in life?! College is a tough time in life, and you're learning a lot about yourself and what you want to accomplish, and Allie captured these emotions perfectly.

2.0 out of 5 stars Could be shorter by half
Reviewed in the United States on September 20, 2023
This book is insanely repetitive! After I hit the 50% read mark, and it wasn’t going anywhere because the author has to tell you the same crap over and over, I skipped to the 85% read section and it was literally talking about the same crap. We get it!
Just couldn’t enjoy it…too frustrating.

4.0 out of 5 stars Best friends Diana and Barett
Reviewed in the United States on February 4, 2023
Steam 1 1/2 not very much but there are some. Best friends to lovers.
Diana is transfers schools to be closer to home. Her father being sick and wanting to be close she decided to move from So. Cal where she attended USC and played soccer to go to Newton University. There best friend Barrett Zhang attends and plays football. Finally they are going to the same school and being in the same time zone again. But alias Diana had a secret crush on him in high school but nothing dame about. So she tried to date other men but they never lived up to Barrett. Also, now is the chance for Barrett to show Diana he is the right man for her to date. His feelings for her havent changed, he loved her since they were 14. Such a gentleman, but can be rough when need be. Jealous if the opposite gende show the ither attention. I highly enjoyed this, but the spicy was very little, its there but bot much. Enter sad face..

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

I think i have a favorite trope and it is best friends to lovers. Idk but Barrett and Diana just did it for me. I love their history and the secret pining for both of them! Diana was in her head way too much which definitely I can relate to. Super relatable and cute story and I loved it. Can’t wait for more! Maybe Wes and Mack?

3.0 out of 5 stars such a brilliant idea for a book
Reviewed in Australia on September 4, 2023

I did like this.
A lot.

However, I read the same few sentences again and again. It was too much repetition. I wondered how long the writer took to write each part because it seemed like they had no idea, a few pages earlier they’d already said the same thing.

I promised myself I’d just push through and I did.

I liked the characters, not sure it required multiple mentions of ethnicity though.
I liked the dual POV, the setting and the conflicts.

Overall a sound story.
