Started with very cringy very clearly YA targeted writing, but as the book went on I fell more and more in love with all of the characters. Chess was a great background to set this story against as it kinda felt like what I imagine a sports romance would feel like (as of yet I have not read any). I really enjoyed this book overall, though the ending left a bit more to be desired. I wanted more in the last chapter before the epilogue!
