Fraternize by Rachel Van Dyken
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Summary from GoodReads
Emerson just made her dream come true as a professional cheerleader for her favorite pro football team. But even though the plus-size athlete is breaking down boundaries, she still has to contend with the massive rulebook. Carbs? Nope. Chocolate? Definitely not. Still, Emerson loves her curves, and she’ll rock the hell out of this job even if it kills her. Except for one mandate that is easier read than done…
No fraternizing with the players.
Problem one is Miller Quinton: Emerson’s first love, first sex, and the guy who still ignites her daydreams and R-rated fantasies. Thrown back together, Miller and Emerson feel the undeniable pull of passion again, even if the conflict that tore them apart seems insurmountable. Then there’s way-too-sexy Grant Sanchez. He has a serious reputation with the ladies, and when it comes to winning someone he wants, he doesn’t let anyone stand in his way.
Now Emerson is breaking every rule in the manual. But what she doesn’t know is that she’s part of a wicked little game—one that could steal both her dream and her heart.

REVIEW
I received an e-ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
I must admit that I began reading the books by Rachel Van Dyken after finding out that her "Matchmaker" series would become a movie by Passionflix! Seeing this beauty on Netgalley I seized the chance!
And it was...AMAZING! No love triangle, no back and forth between characters! The cover too can be decieving but the story is sweet, very funny and emotional. I loved Emerson and her battle to seize her dream! Rarely you see a plus, curvy heroine in NA, not to mention on YA (Trust by Kylie Scott is the only example which comes to my mind)
Sanchez? He was a sexy, cute character. Miller? He needed some time to overcome his past but the closure he and Emerson got was a healthy, good one. The banter between characters was very enjoyable and I never got bored.
I'll be waiting anxiously for the next book! ;)
