About this listen
From the author of the Wicked Bay series, comes an angsty YA/NA enemies-to-lovers romance. Cocky football players, school rivalry, and the girls who get in their way. Get ready...the Raiders are coming!
Hailee Raine only has to survive one more year. One year of life in her football obsessed town. One year of nauseating school spirit. Just one more year of her cruel step-brother Jason; and his cocky, arrogant, football-playing friends.
She hates them. Especially, Cameron Chase, the guy she thought was different.
Cameron Chase has the world at his feet. He has it all; good looks, talent, and the charm to go with it. He has colleges lined up at the door, all wanting a piece of Rixon Raiders star wide receiver. Until something threatens everything he's ever worked for, and only one person can quiet the war raging inside him. But he's supposed to hate her; his best friend's sister.
She's off-limits. Untouchable. She's trouble with a capital T.
Then Hailee finds herself in the middle of a football prank gone wrong...and suddenly hating each other never felt so good.
The Trouble with You is the first book in The Rixon Raiders series. All books in this series can be listened to as stand-alones!

It was entertaining to see where boundary lines were drawn and crossed. Hailee found it fun to ‘poke the bear’ in essence and her stepbrother had a chip on his shoulder the size of Texas. The situation made it difficult for Hailee to connect with anyone outside of her bestie, much less her stepbrother’s best friend Cameron.
I liked how the relationship was developed. It went deeper than surface level. The conflict was well established and it lent itself to opening up plot lines for secondary characters. I’m definitely intrigued by what’s going to happen with the next couples in the series.
There was one point that was an issue for me. I won’t spoil but I’ll say that it was left largely unaddressed and it involved several acts that are very much illegal, not to mention moral implications. If it weren’t for that, it would’ve been a 5 ⭐️ from me.
The narrators, Sarah Puckett and Wen Ross, did a fantastic job. Their pace, tone, and pitch were complimentary to the story. They were emotive and a great match to the characters.
All in all an enjoyable read. Will continue the series for sure.
FINAL RATING: 4 STARS ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

TTWY is definitely full of angst, caused mainly by Hailee and Cameron and the tension between them - romantic and sexual - emanating from the pages.
It's a bit of a slow burn romance because Cameron is the best friend of Jason, Hailee's step brother (who hate each other) and has been a cause of strife in her life for years thanks to their pranks they've pulled on her.
There was a couple of other storylines interwoven within the main one, and they were done with ease. We come to learn of other characters including Hailee's best friend Flick, and Jason's teammates (that I can't wait to read more from!).
Like Cotton's other college sports romances, the writing is seamless, full of emotion and pulls you in from the very beginning.
There was one particular incident that made me feel a bit uncomfortable as nothing seemed to come of it and it was like it was just swept under the carpet, otherwise it would have had 5 stars. I'll definitely be reading the next in the series though!
Full of teenage angst
