About this listen

Sometimes, the endgame is only the beginning.

In the heated world of the Premier League, Earl Alex Beaufort, a charming Liverpool midfielder, collides on-pitch with Lee Taylor, Manchester United's top striker. When England's World Cup dream brings them to sunny Spain, the real game unfolds: sharing a room. Rivals to teammates to… more?

Dive into this banter-filled MM sports romance where football meets unexpected feelings. A tale where a "pretty boy" comment isn't just playful teasing, and a kiss isn't just a kiss. As the tension of the World Cup escalates, so does the connection between Alex and Lee.

Amidst the drills, goals, and growing team camaraderie, shadows of family legacies and personal battles loom large. Can Alex, struggling with duke-sized expectations and his bisexuality, embrace his true self? Will Lee learn to dribble past his trust issues? Get ready for emotional offsides, family fouls, and a journey of self-discovery as thrilling as a last-minute goal.

With doses of British humor and heartwarming honesty, Be My Endgame serves up a pitch-perfect contemporary MM romance against the electric backdrop of the World Cup. Expect the unexpected—because when it comes to love and football, anything can happen in 90 minutes (plus injury time).

While loosely linked to Pull Me Under and Wear It Like a Crown, this book can be listened to as a standalone.

Really enjoyed the story and the build up to them getting together. Felt so sorry for Alex during that chapter closer to the end (His dreams being crushed) 🥺 because it’s not like they might make the finals ever again but their growth and love for each other was sweet to read about.

The dad, as always in a lot of these MM stories and like real life, is a total asshole and deserves everything he gets.

As for the narration, Joel is sadly a hit and miss author for me and the accent for Alex was perfect to listen too but Lee, Jeff, Kieran and a few others were extremely difficult and sounded like he was either in pain, straining, or just drunk/ slurring words 🙈 Some books and characters work well for him, others not so much

Great story and characters!

A lighthearted football fairytale. Although I think Joel Leslie is a good, expressive narrator he is not at his best with British accents and I found his sometimes strange and strained voices did drag me from the world depicted.

A fun romance

A heartwarming story with a predictable HEA. I’ve listened to lots of Joel Leslie and whilst I usually think his performance is perfect, there were a few words in this story that just didn’t ring true. “Semi”. “Divan”. Weird Americanisms maybe? Nonetheless, a lovely overall experience and I would recommend.
