Friend to Lovers, Basketball, Sports Romance, College, POV
Basketball player, sexy, arrogant, always sleeping through class… these are the things I knew about him. What I didn’t know is that he is a seriously smart jock.
Sorority girl, fine as f**k, determined, ball buster… these are the things I knew about her. What I didn’t know is that she is all the things I didn’t realize I wanted or needed.
Or that one semester with her would change everything.
The Assist is the 1st book in the Smart Jock series, written by Rebecca Jenshak.
I was hooked the moment I realized that the hot jock was the one doing the tutoring. It’s usually the other way around, right? That twist alone made me want to dive into this story.
Wes isn’t your typical jock. He doesn’t party nonstop or juggle a string of girls—instead, he’s focused on his classes and basketball. And when he lets his guard down, he’s seriously swoon-worthy.
Blair only asks Wes to tutor her because she’s struggling in class, but after a little convincing on her part, he agrees. What starts as simple tutoring quickly becomes something much more…
“You’re like the best of both worlds – hot jock meets hot nerd.”
“All I just heard was you calling me hot.”
Wes 🏀
Wes looks like he has it all from the outside, and Blair initially judges him for it. But as their interactions unfold, you begin to see just how much pressure he’s really under. The expectations placed on him would crush a lesser basketball player, yet he carries them with quiet determination—and the way he treats the people around him only makes him more irresistible.
Blair💋
Blair is just as likable. She’s trapped in a situation that makes her college life nearly impossible, doing her best to live her life while juggling far more than anyone her age should have to handle
Sorority girl Blair Olsen is in a bind—she’s being blackmailed by her ex and barely surviving her statistics class. Still, Blair radiates optimism, and she’ll need every ounce of it to approach the sexy, egotistical Wes Reynolds for help. Who would have thought this hot jock would become her lifeline to passing… and maybe something more?
💭💭💭
I really enjoyed reading the first instalment of this series. Getting to meet all the side characters and stepping into the Valley U world Rebecca Jenshak has created was such a treat. I loved seeing all the bonds and friendships beginning to take shape, and it made everything feel so real and immersive.
I’m genuinely looking forward to the next book in the series—I think I may have just found my new favourite author!
