This is book 2 in James’ Branston Bandits series and can be read as a standalone, but I think better when read in series order as there is character crossover. This book is the journey of Roxie and Miles (best friends of our main characters from book 1 – The Turnover. Not as many football puns in this one but still super fun and I loved the scene with the football cookies – so funny! James’ delivers a wonderfully well written and narrated romance read with a great balance of sweet and steam. These characters fight their HEA love from the very start – from a one-night stand to friends with benefits, these two take their relationship to every level before finally submitting to their HEA! A great read / listen with an extra epilogue that teases us for book 3! Love this group of friends who find their loves in a group of football teammates and friends!

This book was given to me for free at my request and I voluntarily provided this review.
