Love and Sportsball by Meka James

4.0

I love a sapphic sports romance. The basketball element was done really well. There's enough information that you're not lost if you don't know anything about the sport but not too much that it takes over. I adored the team and the sisterhood. I'm so glad this is the start of a series because there are so many lovable women on the team and I can't wait to see their stories. 

The chemistry between Khadijah and Shae was sizzling. The flirting and tension were done perfectly along with the balance of sweet and spicy. They were pretty damn cute together. The book starts with pretty instant spice. Then we get to see them try and resist their attraction while at work which builds the tension beautifully. 

I did struggle a bit with Dijah and her list. She didn't seem to fully understand that compromise is a two way thing. Some of her actions were frustrating. However I love Shae, she seemed like such a great person. Both of their families were pretty lovable as well. The conflict worked well with the story and both of their personalities, and added to their relationship. I will definitely be keeping an eye out for more from Meka James.
