I broke her heart ten years ago and left town. She hates me, and rightly so. It doesn’t matter that the rest of the country loves me, that I’m a starting quarterback with a multimillion-dollar contract. Because when I look in the mirror, all I see is a failure who was too young—and too afraid—to fight for what I wanted. But I’m not that guy anymore, and all I need is one shot to convince her. *** He has no idea what happened after he left. And now I’m supposed to work alongside him like we don’t have this huge, messy history? But I’m older now, wiser, and I won’t let anything stand in my way of doing a good job for this league. Not even one overpaid, arrogant player who thinks we’re going to kiss and make up. News flash, buddy: I am over you.
My Review (ARC provided)
4-4.5 stars!
I love second chance romances and the throw in a jock to top it off, and I’m hooked. This book was thoroughly enjoyable. It a super fast read and before I knew it I was done.
Jane and Chase were high school sweethearts, Chase was a football player though, and when he moved on to college, the relationship didn’t last. He ate, breathed and slept football and Jane didn’t fit into his life at the time. That was ten years ago.
Present day Chase is back and playing for the team Jane manages and her father coaches, she wants nothing to do with Chase but Chase is determined to make her see differently.
They start to reminisce and remember what they had become friends; friendship is hard for them though because of lingering feelings and heartache from the past.
Jane was a strong heroine who worked hard for what she has and isn’t about the let her control slip. Chase is just as hardworking as a football player and can not have a distraction.
I was rooting for these two from the beginning; they had such great chemistry, funny teasing, and repartee. I enjoyed reading the scenes when they were together so much.
If you want a super quick read that has you flipping through the pages then pick this one up.
