About this listen

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • College exes break all the rules when they reunite years later in this enemies to lovers, second-chance romance, the companion novel to the TikTok sensation The Cheat Sheet—from Sarah Adams, the New York Times bestselling author of Practice Makes Perfect.

“A really fun, chemistry-filled sports romance you don’t want to miss!”—Hannah Grace, author of Icebreaker

Nora Mackenzie’s entire career lies in the hands of famous NFL tight end Derek Pender, who also happens to be her extremely hot college ex-boyfriend. Nora didn’t end things as gracefully as she could have back then, and now it has come back to haunt her. Derek is her first client as an official full-time sports agent and he’s holding a grudge.

Derek has set his sights on a little friendly revenge. If Nora Mackenzie, the first girl to ever break his heart, wants to be his agent, oh, he’ll let her be his agent. The plan is simple: make Nora’s life absolutely miserable. But if Derek knows anything about the woman he once loved—she won’t quit easily.

Instead of giving in, Nora starts a scheme of her own. But then a wild night in Vegas leads to Nora and Derek in bed the next morning married. With their rule book out the window, could this new relationship save their careers or spark the romance of a lifetime?

Whitty writing, second chance romance, powerful woman, and an excellent story about male friendship.
Writing style was fast paced, with characters that were believable. The story was a good reminder that we don't all have to be in the same box we are all allowed to step out of our box and join a new one. We all have different dreams and should be encouraged to chase those dreams.

Awesome banter! Amazing love story.

This was my first time with either of these narrators and I think they both moved into my top 3! The performance was amazing. There was a breathiness to the characters that sounded so genuine, just like every other emotion portrayed. It really added to the story experience! I ADORED the story itself too!!! Been waiting since 2021 and it did not dissapoint one bit! Its fun and heartfelt and emotional and raw and witty and full of banter and love. 10/10 for story and performance

Great performance for a touchdown book!!
