BLURB ➞
When you’re at the top of professional football, the fall to the bottom is steep.
I was the king of Nashville. Now I’m the problem child.
One minute I’m the face of the franchise. Next thing I know I’m being sent away after my self destructive ways have become too much to handle.
Little does my team know that sending me back to my hometown is the worst thing they could have done.
She’s here. The one who broke me. The one who sent me to rock bottom.
She’s also the only one who can put my damaged self back together.
I’ve loved Lucy Valenti since the moment I met her. Her big brown eyes and kind smile hooked me in. Her faith in me made me want to be a better man. She’s the only one who has ever seen me as more than a football player.
She was my end game. My final play. But I ran out of time.
Or did I? Because I can’t ignore the sparks that fly when we are around each other. Or the heat that still burns between us.
I always said the offseason was going to be our time. And if I don’t throw one last Hail Mary, it might be the end.
And this is a game I’m not willing to lose.
“I love it when you get all math geek on me.”
ARC REVIEW ➞
Bryce oh Bryce. How I wanted to knock some sense into the man for pretty much everything. Lucy…. I don’t know how she put up with him as long as she did, well I do, but still. At times these two frustrated me beyond belief, to the point I was yelling out loud at my kindle.
I loved getting little flashbacks of how Bryce and Lucy met and how their friends and relationship(?) progressed over the years and to see where they are now in the present. They were opposites when they first met. The star football player, the popular jock in high school versus Lucy, the mathlete. However, despite their differences, they clicked. The two of them worked so well together. Their chemistry was on point.
I know I already said it but Lucy is a saint. That woman deserves an award for how much she dealt with and everything that Bryce had put her through. Yet, I know she also understood somewhat where Bryce was coming from. I was 100% on #TeamLucy from the start.
