Summary

Don't like the athletes. Don't sleep with the athletes. Don't fall for the athletes. It had never been particularly difficult to follow the rules, but Nick had a feeling he was about to be tested. 

Heisman winner. Member of the national championship team. NFL rookie of the year. Quarterback Colin O’Connor knows he’s become the ultimate romance novel cliché: all the success he’s ever dreamed of but nobody with whom to share it. Too bad it’s not as simple as asking out the next girl who intrigues him - because the next girl to intrigue him probably won’t be a girl at all. 

Unexpectedly, the solution comes in one neat package: Nick Wheeler, lead journalist for a leading sports and pop culture blog. Hired by Colin’s team, Nick comes to Miami to shine a spotlight on the NFL’s most private quarterback.

The heat in Miami rises when Nick discovers Colin is nothing like the hollow personality he pretends to be in interviews and he’s even hotter in person than on his Sports Illustrated cover. Nick knows this is the story of his career, and it also hits close to home. What he needs is to help Colin share his story while keeping their growing relationship from boiling over in the press, but what he wants is to tell the world.

Note: This book has been re-edited and rereleased on June 24, 2017. Content is the same, errors are fixed.

A great listen!

A pair of great main characters and such a cute, easy to listen to romance between the pair.

mixed bag not up to usual Beth Bolden standards

Firstly the narration is fine a little flat at times which makes sex scenes quite unsexy but easy enough to listen to overall.
My main disappointment was the story which is just not up to the usual standards of this author. I realise that this is an earlier story than the other mm romances of Beth Boldens i have read, plus despite this being listed as a standalone all the main characters are from her earlier 5 points series (which I have not read) and it really shows. While the story makes sense and I don't think you absolutely need to have read the 5 points series, however without the context, the constant references to Rio and the characters of Jemma and Gabe are really irritating. in fact this book would have been greatly improved with 100% less Jemma. With the tie-in it probably makes sense she is so constantly referenced and appears so frequently, but as a stand alone story she becomes the annoying clichéd bossy and nosy friend whose calls in real life you would start avoiding. Overall be aware there is a whole background which gets constantly referred to and consider a later story instead.
