The Quarterback Keeper
by Rheland Richmond, Emerson Beckett
(Some potential minor spoilers ahead.)
The Quarterback Keeper isn’t going to be for everyone, but I adored it. It has all sorts of feels, a little bit of angst, a TON of spice, and a lovely HEA.
Alex and Christian meet on vacation and spend a wonderful week getting to know each other & falling in love. Unfortunately, Alex feels like he isn’t in a place where he can share his new relationship with the world and when things get complicated, he makes a decision that breaks both of their hearts. When they meet each other again, at Meet the Teacher Night of all places, can he convince Christian to forgive him and give them another chance?
This is a new to me series and I have to say I read everything I could get my hands on in a weekend. They are a little formulaic and kinda light reading but that didn’t make them any less enjoyable. There’s a bit of angst, but not a ton, and a good dose of insta-love with this one. Oh, and definitely a lot of heat. I have to say, as a straight female, there were a few times (more so in later books than this one) where I went “is this sexy?” because it just seemed a little over the top to be real. But that only happened here and there and the rest of the time … *whew, hawtness* I did have some issues with the portrayal of Alex’s ex as some of the things that happen around her didn’t seem to have the buildup it needed to make it make sense. I’m also not sure that Alex’s celebrity is handled realistically but it is somewhat addressed and is the cause of some of their issues. Overall, though, this series is a keeper and after binging all the others, I am so very anxiously waiting for the next book releasing at the end of April :)
**I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.**
