I’ve sworn off dating football players. After my last relationship ended disastrously, I’ve given up on love entirely.
Determined to start over fresh, somewhere far from Rixton, Tennessee, I impulsively transfer to Braysen University. The Carver twins were like brothers to me growing up. So, when they offer me a place to live until a dorm room frees up, I accept.
Reed Hendrix is as irresistible as he is off-limits. Sleeping in the room next to him could complicate things. Not only because my brother warned Reed to stay away from me but also because falling for him would break my own rule.
Yet it’s unnerving how quickly I find myself giving in to my feelings for him. Before I know it, we’re stealing glances and sneaking around, dangerously toeing the line between flirting and fooling around.
The more I unravel at the hands of Reed, the harder it is to resist falling for him. When my past catches up with me, it’s more than my heart on the line.
They say some rules are meant to be broken.
When secrets are revealed, I can only hope my heart isn’t left broken too.
A close proximity, friends-to-lovers sports romance by Brooke O’Brien about a woman who has sworn off dating football players and an all-star running back determined to win her heart and break her rules.
Narrated by the amazing Stefanie Kay & Lee Samuels!

🎧🎙️AUDIO REVIEW🎙️🎧
🎙️🎤 Another excellent performance by Lee Samuels & Stephanie Kay! They both played really well off each other and did an excellent job not just with the performances of their characters, but all the secondary ones as well. They also compliment each other really well so that makes the listening experience go a lot smoother. It was an excellent 7 or so hours in y ears! 👏👏
I know there’s a “note” in the blurb of this book that tells you this is an interconnected story that could be read all on its own and enjoyed but you should probably read them all to get the best enjoyment but I’m going further to say that when something is interconnected, well, it’s connected. LOL So, do yourselves a favor and just read this series from the beginning. You will thank me later! #trust
I enjoyed the heck out of Reeve and Tatum’s journey! These two were fire in all the right ways! I know that when a word like fire is used to describe a couple, most people automatically think of their sexual chemistry, but I’m using it here in a different way because they sparked in all the ways from beginning to end and it made listening to their story a snap!
I love that this story isn’t just a fluff piece, or rather a superficial romance journey. There are a few circumstances/plot points throughout the story that add a lot of depth to the characters and the story itself, and they are unfolded and represented well. This story captivated me from the very beginning and intrigued me for almost as long. The romance journey is not the only journey this book follows and the two paths intercept and interconnect well. Brooke O’Brien did an excellent job with all of this without veering the story towards dramatics and eyerolling shenanigans. Feel me?
I’m looking forward to more from this group and whatever else Brooke decides to write in the future!
