Wereball: Hate At First Text: Book 1 by Isabella Skye

"I read this in one night! Couldn't put it down!"
"I laughed, I teared up, I kicked my feet and giggled internally cause the banter was fantastic."
"This had me hooked from the first unhinged text message."

Fate doesn't send a warning text.
What happens when the werewolf you can't stand becomes the werewolf you can't live without?

As a neurosurgery student, I, Yvaine Mackenzie, have only one thing on my brain-well, the brain.

Born werewolf, but with a self-prescribed immunity to the whole fated-mate concept, I never speculated how I would meet my other half. My life is already packed to the brim with surgical precision: textbooks, hospital shifts, matcha dates with my roommates, and making sure my twin brother-aka, our college's famous team captain-leaves the wereball field with all his limbs intact.

That's right, wereball-the unnecessarily aggressive sport comparable to human football but with no refs, no penalties, and no protective gear. Or as I like to call it, uncivilized, primitive, and a waste of medical supplies.

Everything fits perfectly into my color-coded agenda... until one night I innocently lend out my phone and receive the filthiest message from an anonymous rival player. Figures, as he's the most arrogant, irritating, and ill-mannered person I've never met. And my REM-sleep has never been the same.

Though somewhere between late-night texting and morning bickering, the shockingly perceptive mystery man I renamed "Rudolph" becomes my closest confidante.

But we can't hide behind our screens forever. The more our friendship deepens, the closer we draw toward catastrophic secrets and one undeniable truth-how we accidentally texted destiny into existence.

When everything explodes...will I be able to forgive him?

If I'd known one silly text would tilt the axis of my life? I would've done some cardio. Strengthened my heart. Kept a defibrillator with me. All the time.

Fans of Grey's Anatomy, Love on the Brain & Mate by Ali Hazelwood, and the Striker by Ana Huang, will sink their teeth into this fun and steamy Romeo-and-Juliet-inspired debut, in which a brilliant medical student and a popular jock from rival packs find that when fate calls, sometimes, you just have to grin and bear it.

"If you want a story that has plenty of comedy to it but also touches on the serious notes I'm gonna recommend this one."

"As a twin I love the relationship between Yvaine and her brother. I love love how the side characters have their own story going on but it doesn't overlap with the plot of the story I hope everyone finds genuine friends for the times you need someone to talk to or lean on. The way this book ended I can't wait to see what the author have in store for book 2."

"This is the type of book that sneakily expands your vocabulary (I love when I can highlight words on my Kindle and learn a new word!) while thoroughly entertaining you the whole time. There was snark, a bit of sass, and a whole lot of love and support."

This is Book 1 of a trilogy following the same characters.
