Better than the second book, had a few lengths but the story was good developed!
Okay, first of all: I liked Fair Catch a lot better than Caught Stealing, it fortunately didn't have comparable problematic scenes regarding consent and alcohol - which is why Fair Catch took the chance I gave CE Ricci for reading anything by her in the future. Hayes and Kason's story was cute, I liked the ending and the demi representation, even tho I would have loved to see how being on the ace spec developed after the first gettogether. However, he's demi, so that might just not come up in his experience and is as valid as others. I knew beforehand there'd be a third act breakup, because it is one of the tropes the book was advertised with. I personally don't really like third act breakups, because they mostly feel incredibly fake or staged to create a little drama, but in this one, it was quite fine actually. I personally would have acted differently, but it still followed the characters' logic and how they were developed, so it suited the story. The ending in this regard was also really beautiful! There were some lengths in the middle of this book and I kind of have troubles understanding why a romance needs to be more than 350 pages max, I haven't read a romance of more than 400 pages yet that didn't have lengths somewhere. I still liked the style of writing!
