Sutton U Crew Book 1: Catch by Ava Olsen

Sutton U Crew Book 1

Jett
I don’t talk about my past, and I don’t fall for straight guys.

Finding out that my college boyfriend is cheating on me isn’t the way I planned to start the fall semester. My distraction? A friendly competition with my rowing teammates, the Sutton U Crew, vs the hockey team. Until I’m faced with Ethan Walker, a cocky forward and notorious frat boy. The guy’s a smug player—in every sense of the word. I thought he was straight, but everywhere I go, there he is. I’m fast, but he’s relentless.
And I have no idea what I’m going to do when he catches me.

Ethan
I’m not catching feelings for anyone, never mind a guy.

College is all about good times, flirty games, and of course, hockey. Until I meet Jett, a rower who never met a competition he couldn’t beat. Something about his smart mouth and sad eyes sets me off like nothing else. I can’t stop thinking about what it would be like to kiss him, but since when am I into guys? Every time we’re near each other, though, the pull between us gets more intense. It’s not that I want Jett; I need to own him.
And once I catch him? I’m not letting go.

My Review: 5/5 Stars

When Jett finds out his boyfriend is cheating on him, he is beyond furious and very much done with the guy. Good thing he can take out his anger during the soccer game his crew team is playing against the hockey team. But that also means facing Ethan. The cocky hockey player who pushes Jett’s buttons constantly. Ethan is known around campus as a player off the ice too and isn’t shy about the fact that he doesn’t do relationships. But even Jett has to admit that when his ex arrives at the soccer game to cause trouble, Ethan protecting Jett really shows that there is more to him. Ethan loves poking Jett and verbally sparring with him. But Ethan is also realizing something else. He is very attracted to Jett and that’s a first for him. He’s never been into guys before but everything about Jett hits him and makes him obsessed. The pull between them is stronger than anything either has experienced before and when they give in to it? Minds are blown and everything they thought they knew about one another and themselves is thrown at the window. Both carry their emotional scars, but if they overcome them and let go of their fears, they may end up with something pretty amazing. Loved this story! Jett and Ethan were so much fun. Their banter and almost enemies to lovers vibes was a ton of fun. Their chemistry was off the charts and you just wanted them both to give into it! And as soon as they did? Wow! I loved how both of them were able to open up to one another so easily once they actually let part of their inner walls down. They balanced one another so much. I loved watching them fall in love. A great story in this universe and I can’t wait for more!

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
