About this listen

An enemies to lovers, sports romance from #1 Amazon, WSJ and USA Today bestselling author Devney Perry.

The world loves Maverick Houston. Me? I’ve hated him since we were ten.

It’s not exactly easy to escape your childhood nemesis when your parents are best friends who live on the same block. Through countless vacations, parties and holidays, Maverick and I have spent the past decade trading insults.

Until that family dinner when his mother tells us she’s dying. When she asks us to forget the past and start fresh. That’s how I found myself on a date with the Treasure State Wildcats football star. The campus playboy. The boy I kissed when I was three. The man who is the bane of my existence.

He’s arrogant. He’s blunt. He’s too handsome for his own good. But if he has a single, redeeming merit, the guy sure does love his mom. And that’s why I started fake dating Maverick Houston. That’s why I made him a proposition of my own. That’s how this sham of a relationship ruined my life.

The world loves Maverick Houston. Me? I hate that he made me love him too.

Beautiful Story

Oh Merit you just gripped my heart strings. I love a childhood friends to lovers story, and this one takes you on an emotional journey, sad and sweet.
When Mavericks mom heartbreakingly shares the news that her cancer is back and with force he finds himself visiting home more, as he visits it’s only natural for his families long time best friends to be around too, this also means their daughter Stevie, Mavericks childhood best friend and now arch nemesis. I fell hard and fast for Maverick and the sweet bond he had with his mom, he was scared and silently suffering but a few dates out with Stevie and life seemed to be getting brighter, but when the easiness of a new “relationship” stalls and Mavericks world falls apart, he has to figure out the next steps, because for him, life goes on.
This story broke my heart and I still loved every minute of it. I loved the bickering back and forth between Stevie and Maverick, I loved the bond and friendship they worked to build back, the found family with our past favorites and OH MY, the epilogue is one of the BEST I have ever read. I read this on KU and listened to the audio with Megan Wicks and Robert Hatchet narrating in dual and ROCKING all of it, the flirty banter, the deep conversations, the sadness and truly expressing the love.

Loved this one so much!!

This was just the right balance of sweet, spice and real life. The extended epilogue was appreciated too! One of those I wish I could read again for the first time.💖 Maverick & Stevie 🤍

SO GOOD!

Absolutely the best story in the series! Best story and satisfying Epilogue! Also - the audio was PERFECTION - both male and female. Megan Wicks is wonderful (sounds JUST LIKE Emma Stone) and her inflections are spot on. Robert Hatchet has quickly become a favorite as well. So awesome!!!

The feelings

I absolutely devoured this book just like I do with all of Davney Perry’s books!

What a way to end this series, it absolutely wrecked me but I wouldn’t have it any other way.
