Kyra Lennon does a great job with her Game On series. Secondary characters become MCs in their own stories. In this one we follow Jesse as he takes a month to get over his slutty girlfriend from the first Game On book.

In Blindsided I liked the relationship build up between Jesse and Izabelle. Slow and steady. Attraction curbed with common sense. A breath of fresh air.

Cons. Every time we switched from Jesse's POV to Izabelle's we had a regurgitation of information that the reader would have already known from the previous POV. Books that mix two POVs have this issue sometimes, and if you set the book down and picked it back up, it would be fine... but you don't want a reader setting your book down. You want them to sit and read it, staying up until the sunrises to do it. This one part was a major turn off. The info dumps weren't once or twice, it became a noticeable problem.

While we get left with many of questions at the end of Book 2, I have no doubt Kyra Lennon will answer them in another book as Jesse takes his place once again as a secondary character, maybe even in his best friend Hunter's own story.
