Wow what a journey this was and that ending!! Now I need more of Kay and Mase, more to come once I wrap my head around it all. (ps it is a cliffhanger but man you don't want to miss it).

This is the first book of Alley Ciz's that I have read and I am so glad I was given the chance to read this! I love Kay and Mase and I am obsessed with the U of J boys, I can almost forgive the ending...almost. Cannot wait to see where skittles and caveman's story continues.I highly recommend this to anyone that will listen.

This is the first book in Ciz's new series, and it is an explosive one!!!! Mason "Casanova" Nova, and Kay "PF" Dennings bring so much witt, sarcasm, and previous heartache to the table she warned us it has to be told in three books. This book focuses on building their relationship with lots of background on characters, and where they come from. Her description of the characters and scenes make the reader feel as if we are right there for every joke, volley of words, and party that all go too.
Kay is a complete anomely to Mason who usually just has to show up in the vicenity of a girl who is throwing herself at him. Kay cuts through all the BS, and forces Mason to just be himself, and he doesn't know what to do with that. She is surrounded by protective friends who would do anything to keep her safe from trouble. Kay keeps her circle small, and tight after some very difficult lessons when she was younger. She likes to keep her private life private, and Mason just doesn't know how to deal. Mason also has some difficult lessons learned from his past that creep up into the present.
Together they have to figure out how to let people in, and be open to love as well as potential heartache. This book ends on a cliffhanger and the only good thing about that is the next book will be out in October.

Well written, likeable characters , good storyline for this type of genre BUT it’s the first in a trilogy with NO warning - stopped it from a higher rating

Did not read enough to rate it, but THOROUGHLY 1 star IMO.
The moment I opened the book and there was a whole ass chart about who's referred by what initial, I knew I wouldn't like it. And boy was I right. 2 chapters into it and I'm completely done. EVERYONE is referred to by their initials, and like two pages in there are E and Em who are two separate people, as well as JT, CK, G and ANYTHING OTHER THAN ACTUAL FUCKING NAMES. WTF is this bullshit. I just CAN'T. NA books are often hard enough to read because of pointless drama, but this one was made extra hard cause of this bullshit. The only reason I had been interested in the first place was because I like size difference couples, but should have known better this time as the literal name of the series is a hashtag of a frigging acronym, which seems like a HUGE red flag in hindsight. I'm done.

Looking to Score is a book that grabs your attention from the beginning and holds onto it. The hardest part is trying to keep all the people straight and of course putting it down. Kayla aka Kay or PF calls her friends by their first letter or a combination of two letters. The inner battle Kay has with “inner cheerleader” is hilarious at times.
Mason is a typical playboy football player who doesn’t do relationships. When he sees Kay he things she is the girlfriend of one of his fraternity brothers. It’s when he finds out they are friends that his inner coach becomes unhappy. He is interested in Kay and wants to know more about her. Asks her questions brings her coffee and goes out of his way to spend time with her.
There are some secrets in Kay’s past and she tends to keep to herself and the few people she’s let in. There are hints about the past and it all makes you want to read faster to find out everything. And wham what a cliffhanger. Ahhh next book now....

Oh Alley. This is my girl! She is and will always be a one click read for me. To be honest I never read her blurbs cuz I know I am gonna want to read her books, especially when they are sports related books cuz she rocks any sports she writes about.
She CLEARLY didn’t disappoint with Mase and Kay! I loved how Mase was taken with Kay right away from just seeing her from far away. Thinking she was with someone else but never able to get her off his mind til he found out more about her. Then Kay wasn’t all about his Casanova ways. Loved how she wasn’t taking any of his lines, her sassy comebacks to him made me laugh and love her! But that only made Mase want her even more cuz she never chased after him.
But getting to know more about Kay and all her reasons for the way she was, that broke my heart. This poor girl and all that she went through. But seeing her with Mase and how they were together, how they were really perfect for each other warmed my heart. And can I say I loved and support her silly tshirts lol.

I have never read any of Alley Ciz's but this will not be my last. Looking to Score follows our main characters Kayla and Mason, or Skittles and Cassanova. The chemistry between the two of these characters are incredible, and I enjoyed the ups and downs of their relationship. The only thing I hated about this book was that cliffhanger!
