Summary

The first time I saw Saxton Crawford we were in high school. He was the football star and I was just another invisible teenage girl. Now, he is a famous quarterback and the bane of my existence. And by bane, I mean his presence has brought back 10 years of secrets. Ones I'd thought I'd dealt with. The minute he walks back into my life, I become that bumbling teenage girl all over again. I'm not having it! Even if the quarterback only has eyes for me. He's irresistible, too handsome for his own good, cocky, and carrying baggage no one wants.

Saxton Crawford has spent years trying to find his mystery girl. Turns out, I'm that girl. I guess I wasn't invisible after all. Bam! Happily ever after, right? Nope, not for me. Not with his demons and mine. It's going to take every ounce of my will power to resist him. So, what would it take to get him to leave me alone? Do I want that? Maybe I should be asking myself: "What would it take to win his heart?"

Great listen

This was my first book by E. L. Dubois and it was a great listen. I look forward to listening to more books by the author.
Shy and rather invisible Sailor meets hip Saxton at the end of her high school years. The spark is there, but they lose sight of each other.
Years later, the two meet again by chance. Saxton is a sports star who joins his hometown club. Sailor is responsible for his public relations, and she now has a much more confident demeanor.
Do the two have a second chance? The mutual attraction is still there after so many years. You could feel it directly when listening.

I found Sailor and Saxton likeable from the beginning. Sailor goes her way, but she has built a wall around her heart. Saxton is incredibly sweet, he is very attentive and a protector type.
"What would it take" is a sweet and romantic story about second chances. It is also quite suspenseful with quite a few twists and turns. Some you can expect, others are unexpected.

Elizabeth Blakely did an excellent job of reading the audiobook and giving the characters the appropriate voices. I also liked her intonations and the rhythm of her speech.
