Ok Cozy Besties, listen. Sometimes love shows up in the most surprising ways. For Kellon and Phileigh, the intstant attraction gives you just that…with a twist of course. Because of that, you must read Unexpected Pass.
First off is our MMC, he’s a superstar athlete, but not the messy kind. He’s fine, he’s famous, and he’s out here catching feelings faster than he catches passes. And our FMC? Whew — strong, smart, minding her business, and not here for the nonsense… until Mr. MVP strolls in like he owns the place.
This book has all the spice, the swoon, and just enough drama to keep you flipping pages at 2 a.m. Trust me — cancel your weekend plans, pour a glass of wine, tea, or coffee, and thank me later. Because once you meet this couple, you’re not putting them down.


The Basics:
Title: Unexpected Pass
Author: A Blossom
Trope(s): Sports Romance, Surprise Baby, He Falls First and a few other surprises
Reading Vibe: Fast-paced and bingeable
What Pulled Me In:
First thing that pulled me in was Sports Romance, of course. I’m a sucker for an athlete with the ability to spoil you. Then you get the ex-drama, the viral messiness, the public-eye tension… but it’s written in a way that still feels fun, not heavy.
The Vibe Check (Spoiler-Free):
It’s like mixing game-day energy with late-night heart-to-hearts, wrapped up in a romance that’s equal parts juicy drama and genuine feels.


Perfect For Readers Who…
Okay, so the whole vibe of this book? It’s about how love shows up when you’re not looking for it. How the right person doesn’t just want you, they’re ready to roll with everything that comes with you. It’s about trusting again, letting someone actually show up for you, and realizing you deserve a love that feels safe, steady, and kind of magical. Basically: it’s giving ‘real love doesn’t scare easy’.
Cozy Pre-Read Rating:

Outro:
So yeah, if you’ve been craving a romance that’s got swoon, spice, and just the right amount of drama, Unexpected Pass is your next read. It’s one of those stories that reminds you love doesn’t always arrive on schedule — but when it does, it’s worth the risk.
Now go ahead and add it to your TBR, because trust me, once you meet these two, you’re going to be rooting for them the whole way through. And when are you finished? Drop a comment here or on Instagram, because I know you’re going to have feelings we need to unpack together.
I’ll be back with the “After the Cozy Read” tea if you want to discuss the book after you’ve read it.
