Courtside Crush Kindle Edition
So much for senior year being the best part of high school.
It all started when I caught my boyfriend cheating on me.
I did what any girl would do—I got revenge. Of course, it didn’t stop there. Thanks to a condemning video, I also got eight weeks of community service and athletic probation right before basketball season is supposed to start. (There goes my spot as captain!)
Thankfully, there’s a guy at Marlowe Junction’s Helping Hands who makes passing the time more enjoyable. He’s gorgeous, funny, and a huge basketball fan.
Too bad he’s also my brother’s biggest enemy…
Courtside Crush is a modern-day retelling of Romeo and Juliet, perfect for anyone who likes their sweet romance with a dash of drama. It is the first book in the Varsity Girlfriends series.

- Reviewed in the United States on May 21, 2019This book was so great. The writing was wonderful. It never fell flat or got boring. I was invested in the characters. I enjoyed the relationship between Charlie and Brooks but also the love between her and Preston. The flow of the book was on point. It was funny and I cried when Charlie called her dad. It was sweet and I would definitely my daughter read it. Well done. Cant wait to see what happens next. Will definitely read more from this author.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 13, 2019Ok I will admit now that I did not realize this was a modern day Romeo and Juliet retelling until I just saw the synopsis now. But it totally makes sense with the forbidden love at the two opposing schools, made worse by the feud between the boys. The book even used "Romeo" as a code name for the male love interest and random references were made throughout the book. I can easily say though that I liked Courtside Crush much better than I ever liked Romeo and Juliet and I highly recommend this as an audiobook since the narrator did a great job portraying Charlie's spunk as well as giving the side character's their own voices.
I will admit that I hate the fact that Charlie would not tell anyone the truth- instead she is willing to doing something terrible and debasing and hurt the feelings of a really nice person. I wanted to shake her and possibly throw an intervention because I knew how it was going to play out and nobody was going to win. I know that Charlie is a 17 year old girl but at times she seemed so immature with how she reacted to stress and drama. She was impulsive and a little reckless, acting on her instincts regardless of what she should actually do. I did like that she finally seemed to understand herself better near the end and that her action became more mature as she really took the time to think out her problems.
The side characters were really well developed as well, like her family dynamic, helping to make a well rounded story. Hands down, Jackson (aka the love interest aka Romeo) was my favorite character in the book overall. He was just a really great guy, so excepting and patient, willing to work around whatever crazy situation Charlie kept throwing out at him and defending her regardless of the crazy. Also Daria is the best friend a girl could ever ask for, helpful and forgiving- and full of rational advice that Charlie usually chooses not to listen too.
This was a cute, clean YA standalone romance that I would easily recommend to those who like retellings, headstrong female main characters and a sweet HEA- for now.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 19, 2019This was a cute story although it could have been better. I'm surprised that Charlie didn't get in trouble sooner than she did. She seemed kind of bratty at the beginning. I love Daria though. She seems cool and she has moxie. I wasn't a fan of all the drama in this book. To me it seemed mostly petty and childish. I didn't start liking Charlie until she started hanging out with Jackson and I didn't love her until she stood up for herself. Most of the drama in this book just proves that it's better to be honest. Because most of the stuff that happened with her brother could have been avoided. Still a great read, just needs less drama or less petty drama.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 31, 2020I enjoyed this sweet romance very much. The chemistry between Jackson and Charlie was a slow burn and totally simmered. I’ve been looking for more female sports related fiction that didn’t totally focus on being a superstar player, but on the multifaceted life of a high school teen girl. Well done!
- Reviewed in the United States on January 1, 2022This is a super cute and sweet YA clean romance. I enjoyed it particularly the fact that both main characters where basketball players and the love of the sport they had (I was a HS athlete too). It was realistic and brought me back to the drama of HS again and made me chuckle a bit in remembrance. Overall I enjoyed.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 1, 2020I love this book. I love how she put a little bit of Romeo and Juliet in her story. I love the drama and all the twists and turn it had in the plot.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 12, 2019I loved everything about this book. The romance, the rivalry, the friendships and even the bully. I couldn’t put this book down.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 7, 2019Retelling of Romeo and Juliet. I enjoyed this book. I love a good romance set in high school. I like when they give me the warm and fuzzies and this one did just that. I am excited to read the rest of the series

3.0 out of 5 stars Fun quick read
This was such a good fun and quick YA read. I liked the characters and story but I'd like to read a little bit more about them, to know how they manage to stay together.
- Regina DReviewed in Germany on February 26, 2019
4.0 out of 5 stars Cute YA Romeo and Juliet story with some minor niggles.
Charlie and Jackson are likeable main characters, though Jackson - while I appreciate that he's one of the good guys - stays a bit too bland and passive for my taste.
The sibling drama seems a bit blown out of proportion, and we don't get real closure on the storyline with the ex.
That being said, I liked that Charlie had a friend like Daria in her corner, and that even somewhat-nemesis Sammi turned out to be a decent human being.
Looking forward to reading more books in the series (and by this author in general)!
