But I purposefully chose the photo of him on the field, not the shirtless one from the ‘Sexiest Athletes’ cover.” I didn’t get romance from this at any point. It was lust.

Ignore her, Anne. She’s having a bad day, and she’s drunk,” Cressida explains, smoothing things over like always—as she literally spreads chocolate icing. Saylor’s character was so well written. Her drive, determination, and want to be the best athlete and female soccer player was perfect. Soccer was her home when her family couldn’t be.

She is successful and driven and knows what she wants (almost).
