Shea Rigsby, 33, has lived her entire life in Walker, Texas, a small college town who lives and dies for football, a passion she unabashedly shares. Raised alongside her best friend Lucy, daughter of legendary Walker head coach Clive Carr, Shea was too committed to her hometown team to leave. Instead, he stayed with Walker through college and even took a job in the university’s athletics department after graduation, where he has been for more than a decade.

But when an unexpected tragedy strikes the close-knit Walker community, Shea’s comfortable world is turned upside down and she begins to question if the life she’s chosen is really enough for her.

When she finally leaves her safety net for an unexpected path, Shea discovers disturbing truths about the people and things she has always trusted most, and is forced to confront her deepest desires, fears, and secrets.

Thoughtful, funny, and brilliantly observed, The One And Only is a glowing novel about finding your passion, following your heart, and most importantly, believing in something bigger than yourself. . the only thing that really makes life worth living.

I started reading this book yesterday afternoon and last night (it was crazy late) I couldn’t go to bed until I finished it. I am an avid reader and very selective about books that fascinate me. I don’t have a specific genre, but I probably associate more with certain books at certain stages of my life than others. And good books do just that: they connect with you in ways you can’t forget. I am still thinking about this book this morning and I have NEVER written a review on Amazon. But it was very important for me to express my thoughts on this one.

I laughed out loud and also cried at certain points in this book. I felt so connected and disconnected from this latest Giffin work and that’s a gift. Love it or hate it (and he seems to resonate with it a lot one way or another), there’s no denying Giffin’s ability to tell a story that will engulf the reader in its essence for willing participants . The characters in The One and Only are very real and you feel connected to each of them in some way.

Shea’s struggle with her emotions and “passions” along with the complexities that impact her desires and feelings is very well fleshed out and fleshed out in this film. I think when it comes to the major female leads in Giffin’s books to date, Shea may not be the most complex but she is definitely the best developed which shows how much Giffin has evolved since her debut in Something Borrowed. The supporting characters, particularly Lucy, Miller, and Shea’s father, could easily have been stereotypical one-dimensional characters, and just like in real life, they weren’t.

And Coach… he’s definitely my favorite male character in all of Giffin’s books to this day. Deliberately kept at a distance for the first half of the book, she was just an image of a character as Shea was in the story, but as her character developed you could feel the struggle, the loss, the recent and the new opportunity balance and pain. and love. And as it got more real, you could literally smell his aftershave as he walked on the scene, felt his breathing get heavier in certain spots, and the pain he was feeling was physically moving away from Shea at certain times.

Some of the best scenes Giffin ever wrote are in this book between Shea and Coach. The connection between them literally jumped out of the page, breaking through the wall between the reader and the text. You could feel the passion and love between the two of them in a very real and genuine way, as well as the tension and concern on both sides.

The understanding that life would never be the same was always there, but the need to follow the heart was also very well developed and written. There was always a chance it would all become one big cliché, and it didn’t. If I did, I wouldn’t be writing a review now (I wouldn’t even finish the book…)

I was one of the first Giffin users. I traveled a lot when his first novel came out, and I always picked up books at random airports on the spur of the moment. I remember very clearly that the week it came out I found something borrowed: I was in a different airport, on a different business trip, flying cross-country again. Instead of sleeping the 5+ hours on the flight I was hooked on this book and took it with me on the business trip to sneak into pieces to finish.

One of my Anti-Chick-Lit colleagues was intrigued, borrowed it after I finished it on the trip, and then passed it on to someone else. Within a month the book reached nearly 10 people, each as intrigued as the other. Giffin is a different author, always has been. BUT he continues to up his game with every novel he produces.

I haven’t always been involved with the story or characters of Giffin’s books (read every month as they come out) like I have with The One & Only, but I recognize their ability to connect with a reader (NONE easy task), layer characters and tell stories that women would appeal to and like. However, these later Giffin novels place them in a new category.

I cringe when I see reviews of his books as “good beach reading.” Mind you, I LOVE reading on the beach, but I compare that label to something lighter. If I literally cry while reading a book, I don’t find it “easy”.
