About this listen
Football, a kitten, and 14 dates.
Zhanna Hale
Then
My father is a legend. Some call me football royalty, and in my hometown of Louisiana, I suppose I am. His legacy didn’t prepare me for Bryant Hudson. The quarterback. I swore I’d never date football players. Permanently. Yet Bryant had other plans. Three dates and a handful of conversations, I handed him my heart without realizing it. But, Bryant shatters my soul. I’m left picking up the pieces. If only erasing him from my heart was as easy.
Bryant Hudson
Now
I lost at the only game that matters. And it wasn’t even a game. It was and is my forever with Zhanna. I am the best quarterback out there. That should be enough, right? Achieving my dreams. But none of that matters without my woman beside me. When she left, she took my heart with her. Now I’m back. To remind her of what we had. To see me—the man whose heart she owns, not the quarterback. Our love is fate. Our lives are forever intertwined. I refuse to let a false start signal our end. I’m ready to repeat the play and show Zhanna she is my everything.

D'Artagnan Conti was born into poverty, raised to be a soldier in my father's savage regime. I grew up in luxury, longing to escape my family's cruel machinations, and the young man with sapphire eyes and the voice of an angel became not just my forbidden crush but my everything.

Ten years ago, I fell in love. The pop princess and the rock star. On paper, we should never have worked. In public, she was a sweet girl-next-door bubble-gum pop singer. But when we were together, her passion matched mine. I was ready to make her mine forever, and then she told me it was over.

My life just hit the skids, hard. After a drug scandal blew up in my face, I’m out of a team, my endorsements are gone, and my bank account’s pretty much empty. So now I’m stuck trying to sell my house to scrape together some cash. The kicker? I’ve got to work with Paige Anderson, the real estate agent with a smile that could light up a room—and the woman I made a complete fool of myself with not too long ago.

What's worse than having Rider Kingston, the star quarterback, give you the big brushoff because he doesn't want to get serious? You'd probably think living across the street from him where you get a firsthand view of his hookups, right? That's what I thought. Until someone drops off a baby with a note pinned to her blanket that says one of those jocks - either Rider or one of his roommates - is the father. The problem? Baby mama doesn't mention which of these numbskulls is the sperm donor. I wouldn't care about their paternity problems - except my brother lives there too.

Pine River was supposed to be a new start for me. And it was, especially attending school with my three overprotective cousins, who were the triplets at the top of the social hierarchy. Except they weren’t alone there, and the first day when I came to school, I saw him. Scout Raiden. Tall. Lean. Tattooed. Mesmerizing. He was a golden god with dark and piercing eyes—looking like he wanted to eat me up. The feeling was mutual, and that was a problem.

Football star. Single dad. And once, a long time ago, mine. I’ve spent the better part of a decade forgetting Ford Ellis. If he had just stayed away from Montana, I might have erased the memory of his striking blue eyes and rugged smile forever. Avoiding him was easy when the only place I saw his face was on ESPN—and a remote control could fix that problem.

It was supposed to be the best day of my life. But the second I got up, things started to fall apart. The kitchen just caught on fire. Flowers were from a funeral. My bride-to-be just had an allergic reaction, leaving by ambulance. Oh, and my ex-girlfriend just walked into the church. They say you have to see the signs when they are right in front of you. Maybe she was just mine to have.

So, I took her to Italy to bake for me. I should have asked her first, but I had a feeling she'd say no. But I brought her cat, so that should count for something.

The first time I laid eyes on Henley James, I was mesmerized. The chemistry between us was like nothing I’d ever felt. Impeccable suit, dimpled smile. He was charming and gorgeous, sophisticated and suave. He gave me his business card and asked me to call. His dating game was strong; I was gone from his first smile. I’d love to tell you our date was a raging success, but it wasn’t. Far from it. I decided right there on that day that Henley James and I would forever be mortal enemies; I would never think of him again.

I saw her first. Blonde. Gorgeous. Feisty. I was smitten. But it didn’t matter because she chose him, and he was my best friend and roommate. I’d never be able to compete with that, so I pushed her away instead. It was easy when she lived hours away, and I didn’t have to see her every day, but then she moved in with us. Now, I’m screwed. From her singing in the shower every morning, dancing in the kitchen while she makes coffee, and doing yoga in our living room, I can’t stop thinking about her in all the wrong ways.

Story
I had it all planned out. I'd find a girl, marry her, get the white picket fence and make a family. But then a baby is dropped off at my doorstep. My baby. Turns out I'm more than an NFL quarterback - I'm a father. And my daughter's mother is missing. Or she ran away. No one knows, not even her sister Aria Ryan. Aria carries a gentle grace that doesn't match her story. She has every reason to run - her sister has made her life a living hell. But Aria is different. And I want her to stay.

My name is Courtney Jane Salinger...and I'm sick of games. Sick of the Friday night bar-scene-cum-meat-market. Sick of awful dates and one-night stands, booty calls and guys who don’t call back, mixed messages or no messages and - and - and...I'm sick of all of it. I’m done. It's too hard, and worse: little by little, it's making me hard. It's breaking my heart. What do I want? That's easy. I want a house in suburbia with a white picket fence. I want babies to buckle into a minivan. But most of all, I want to be married. I want a husband.

An admirable Debut
New author for me.... This story had great promise and I liked the narrator. However the Heroine's story line was quite underdeveloped. I had a hard time following at first because the heroine and her sister had such close names and neither character was explained or developed. I disliked the cutesy nicknames for the hero and heroine, I felt that at times this was the only thing holding the storyline together. As the chapters went on, I could feel more promise in the book but to no avail. I did at times get whiplash from the past and present. Also, without any spoilers, I felt that the heroine's role as physical therapist at the end of the book was over rated. That all being said, I am interested in the sister's story. It seemed she had more substance that the heroine many times

I really found this quite enjoyable. I liked that there was a theme of cheating and it wasn’t glossed over, it wasn’t made out that it was 100% on the other female and the male wasn’t at fault. I enjoyed the past and present timeframe. Worth the listen. I’d read/listen this author again.

I LOVE Leslie
Omgosh this story is a romcom, tear jerker, and HEA all wrapped into one. Sasha Marshall is a new to me author and holy smokes can she write. Zhanna picks up her life and moves for her man Bryant who is a professional football player. The struggles they have are crazy. When Zhanna returns to her hometown and finds a passion for her work at her dads college she meets a spitfire neighbor Leslie who is a drag queen/ interior designer. You will fall in love with Leslie. He was hilarious. He helps Zhanna see what’s she missing in life. Ash Kingsley nailed every single character in this book. You will melt at her voice, my only downfall is starting this book later in the evening and missed a night of sleep to finish 🤣. This author and narrator both get a standing applause from me and I sooo can’t wait for the next book to see these characters again.

This was a good read with good pacing that allowed the reader to see the whole story and character development. So while I usually have mixed feelings with this troupe this one I wished they had went to counseling sooner so they could find their way back to each other.

Great Story & Narration🎧 Riveting & Emotional!
I always enjoy discovering new authors and being impressed by not only their writing style, but also the content they have created, and Sasha Marshall was no exception.She created an original story with interesting storylines that are captivating from beginning to end. It was easy to relate to and connect with her characters, they were easy to fall for and root for as well. I enjoyed the way she presented the story, alternating back into the past to show how the characters got to where they are in the present, and it was done seamlessly. The story she created is original with interesting storylines that are captivation from start to end. Her characters are realistic, easy to relate to and connect with, they were easy to fall for and root for too. I enjoyed the way she presented the story, alternating back into the past to show how the characters got to where they are in the present, and it is done seamlessly. Zhanna Hale’s late father was a football legend, she her dad and the game, but she saw playing took a toll on his health and eventually cost him his life. This affected her deeply, and she vowed to never date a football player or get into a romantic relationship with one. That was until she met Bryant Hudson. They met in college and he was persistent in her going on a date or fourteen with her. I absolutely loved these two together and for each other. The chemistry between them was smoking hot and the back-and-forth dialogue between them was fantastic. It was great to watch their relationship grow and morph into so much more. She continued her education and became a physical therapist while he went pro. All was going well until it wasn’t and he blows it all away, losing the best thing that happened in his life, his wife Zhanna. This book came with a content warning about cheating, so keep that in mind if that is a trigger for you. While I do not condone cheating, this story is not about the cheating it is more about forgiveness and moving forward. And when I learned what really happened that night, it did not make it all better, it just made more sense. Kudos to the author for keeping it real. My heart went out to both the characters, for different reasons, and I was hoping they would work it out, because it was clear how much they still loved each other. This is a fabulous second chance sports romance, the writing, plotting, and world building are fantastic, as are the character growth and development. There is never a dull moment, and the story has a perfect balance of drama, angst, some charming and heartwarming moments, heartrending moments, heartfelt emotions, and steamy romance. There were some great secondary characters too, especially Leslie, we could all use a Leslie in our lives. Sasha Marshall, thank you for this great story and emotional rollercoaster ride.
🎧📚🎧Ana Kingsley did a wonderful job narrating the story and giving each of the characters their own personality and voice. She is fabulous at covering the roles of both the male and female characters and was believable in every role she played. She set the perfect tone for the story, captured all the characters' emotions and had you feeling them all. This entertaining storyteller is a versatile voice artist and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for this wonderful listen.

Healing through a book!!
I absolutely could not stop listening once I began. Such an emotional rollercoaster but so well delivered by the narrator. This had me wanting to scream in frustration, laughing out loud, brink of damn tears and everything in between. This was a beautifully written journey that I felt like I got to share in. The writer is brilliant!!
