Summary

Top 100 sports romance best seller!

Meet Graham Tettersaw, former star quarterback. He blew his first shot at success, but now he has a second chance at playing football...and at having a life.

Graham's not about to squander this new opportunity with a rising team. No way. They're about to make his dreams come true, even If they did just add a weird clause that he's supposed to pretend some random chick is his girlfriend.

Whatever!

Teams can be weird about stuff. But Graham can play along. After all, it's all about forward progress.

In football, getting the ball down the field and scoring is goal number one. Life isn't all that much different. That's why Graham is hoping to do some scoring of his own, off the field. Especially when he finds out the pretend girlfriend the team has picked out for him, Eden Vetterly, is beyond hot.

But it's not all about sex.

Graham really likes Eden.

And she likes him too - a lot.

Too bad the team just changed all the rules.

Forward Progress is the first audiobook in the new Men of Fall series, where football meets romance.

Great story, fab characters

Two people pushed together via a contract, a contract that actually is perfect for them both, basically it’s a win win, and life is good, great even. But, you know that saying, ‘if it seems too good to be true, it probably is’, well, it rings true, and my heart went out to them both Graham and Eden, who made the best out of a not too perfect situation, and found true happiness. That same contract that forced them together is now working at driving them apart. A great story, with fab characters, Graham and Eden are stuck between a rock and a hard place, I did however wish they’d not given in to outside demands so easily, but I understood the reasons that they did. Graham is the perfect book boyfriend, so sweet and sincere, and a perfect match for Eden.
I adore Teddy Hamilton, he has such a man’s voice (I don’t know another way to describe it), it’s so dreamy, and he narrates the perfect Graham. Reagan West too, narrates perfectly.

A bit too sweet for my tastes

I received a copy of this audio book in exchange for a review so here goes....

I love Teddy Hamilton’s voice! Most of the time I’d listen to him recite the alphabet, but even he couldn’t make this book less smulchy.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with super sweet romance, it just isn’t really my cup of tea. At times this story had me rolling my eyes and cringing about how nice both lead characters where. But that’s probably because I prefer a good anti-hero.

Ultimately this is a nice story and although it wasn’t for me if you like very sugary romance then you will love it.

Fake turns into real

Eden needs money and she has an opportunity to get plenty. When she is ask to be a "fake" girlfriend for a star football player she thinks this will solve all her and her brothers problems. Little does she know it will do so much more.

Graham has a bad reputation and the team decides the best way to fix it is to provide him with a fake girlfriend that is sweet and wholesome. There is more to Eden than he realized and turns out he wants more than fake.

This is a sweet romance and I enjoyed listening.

Teddy Hamilton and Reagan West narrate this book and they both do a good job.

Fun sports and fake romance

First, Teddy Hamilton is one of my favorite narrators. He’s amazing. And he adds so much to this story, playing both male and female characters so well. Reagan West also did an amazing job so overall, I think the narration only elevated the story.

The story itself was good. Graham and Eden are in a fake relationship in order to improve his reputation and to help her get the funds to help her brother attend a very expensive art school. They both get something out of this relationship but then realize that they are getting so much more out of this relationship than just monetary/ sports motivated. How do they continue to foster their real relationship as part of this farce? It’s a fun book, good banter, and I really liked the story but especially, because of how the narration captured the emotion.

I received this book as a reviewer for #AudiobookObsessionReviewer. Thanks for the fun listen!

Forward Progress

I loved this book! It was such an easy listen. Who doesn't love a good sports romance. Graham is getting a second chance at his dream. He just has to jump through a few hoops to get there. Eden is chosen to fake date Graham to help his image. Sparks ignited instantly between them. This book ends on a perfect HEA. S.R. Grey was a new author to me. I can't wait to check out the next book in this series. Reagan and Teddy truly were amazing narrating this book.!

Football + romance = Perfection

I’m a southern girl who was taught very early on to love football. It’s practically a religion where I am from, and when combined with a love story, I’m a happy girl. I loved Graham and Eden and the chemistry between them was there from that first meeting. I’ve heard good things about both Teddy Hamilton and Reagan West, but never listened to either one before. This will definitely not be my last. The narration was so good that I often forgot who was speaking because I was so wrapped up in the story. I even spent an extra hour cleaning my house just because I wanted to keep listening. I can’t wait for book 2.
