Good quick read. She really knows how to write the spice scenes! I loved Alex and Brodie. Lana was a little pushy? I get she had some serious stuff weighing her down, but dang do these adults make dumb decisions in the means of handling issues themselves. I was hoping the dad would also make a statement calling the journalist out and taking responsibility for his actions, but at least he got help.

This series gets better and better with each book. I adored Lana and Alexander - he was an absolute sweetheart and I love the single dad trope, so I was completely hooked!

It was good. It kept my attention but i didn’t really connect with the characters. If you are looking for a fun light hearted read then read this book.

Such a fantastic read and series. I loved the characters and all the connections from book to book. They all felt like a family by the end and really linked so well together.

I think this Alex & Lana are my favorite out of the four! Plus, I'm a sucker for single dad 😌 This was well-done in all aspects!

I rated this book 3.5 stars I think this may be my favourite in the series so far had the perfect balance of romance to context. I also really enjoyed that it covered some difficult topics such as grief as I think it could really help people going through similar struggles

This book along with the last one f the series were my favorites. Its a 4.5 star read. The only thing is that i didn't get the five star feeling but other than that it was perfect! The character development was amazing. The third act break up wasn't too much and the communication was almost perfect in the books. I loved both of these characters and felt so close to them! It did deal with difficult subjects which is something that everyone should check out before reading this. But i will for sure re read this book in the future!

Really enjoyed this age gap romance, and the footballer heroine is such a well written character!
I’ve read the entire series and enjoyed it so much - it’s got the feel good factor and humour of β€œTed Lasso” with the juicy WAG moments of β€œFootballers Wives”, which just happens to be 2 of my favourite TV series

I liked book 3 the most. The story involving romance between characters with a significant age gap is appealing to me! Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC.

This was such a lovely read between two lost souls and I completely fell in love with Lana and Alex. I felt myself resonating with a lot of Lana's insecurities and really enjoyed her character development throughout. Her relationship with Alex's son, Brodie, was extremely heart-warming and just the sweetest parts of this story. Lana and Alex were definitely meant to be and it was a joy to watch them become a little family.

This was a well written and engaging book with two well developed characters. I enjoyed how different Lana and Alex were and their character development throughout the story. Their chemistry was sizzling from the start, yet also sweet. I particularly related to Alexander trying to make it work as a single dad who lost his partner, and rooted for him to have a happy ending. This series has been really addictive and this was a great addition to it.

This was such a good book. I really enjoyed it. More than I thought I would. I loved the writing style. This book had me hooked from page one. This is a first for me by this author but will not be my last!!

I really enjoyed this story - I thought that it was a really good football based romance!

The book had a well developed storyline that was strong and well planned romantic read.

This is the third book in the series but it reads fine as a stand alone (as did the second book)..

I found that the book was well written and I liked the character development.

A wonderful romantic and sexy story.

it is 4 stars from me for this one - highly recommended and I am really looking forward to book four!

4,5⭐

Once again, I devoured and adored this book. I'm definitely getting these books when they come out in November.

I succumbed to Lana's strength of character, her vulnerability and insecurities, having to balance her family problems with her career, watching her shell crack to see her cracks, seeing her discover and love herself in a more kind way. She makes mistakes, goes astray, makes amends and always tries to do the right thing.

As for Alex, if some of his reactions were not those of a 40-year-old man, I adored him. Appearing strong, unflappable, planning his new life with his son, I loved seeing his certainties and his plan crumble, seeing him see beyond the wild-girl image the media portrays of Lana, his way of believing and having faith in herself. It was wholesome and passionate.

I just love the way Sasha writes her stories, narrating the lives of her characters, the trials they endure and the battles they fight on a daily basis, all the while conveying important messages and reminders. It's simple, addictive, tender and passionate, the kind you can read in one sitting until 2am.

Do y'all remember the version of me that had her life together and stuck to her bedtime? Well, that was before this book.
I read it front to back, unable to put it down (okay, my math teacher forced me, but it was unwillingly). Once I reached THE chapters, I didn't even realize it was 2am already.

Lana and Alexs love story left me giggling and crying, the angst towards the end made it out of the pages into my chest.

And can we talk about Alex's son? Brodie is the sweetes and purest soul I have ever met. I'm sorry Alex, but you weren't the best man in this book, it was your amazing son.

Alex is a close second though. He took the responsibility and stepped up for his kid, he had fait in Lana, when everyone else saw just a girl that would mess up anyway.
But she is so much more. She is brave, kind and even though she had her issues, she was good.

Fair warning, this book is spicyy and ohhh, it was good.

The last thing I have to talk about is Sasha Lace's writing. CAN WE TALK ABOUT IT?? I adored every word she wrote, everything whispered between the lines. She is a mastermind!

There is not a single thing I didn't love about this book and you better believe I already requested the rest of this series. My TBR is screamind at me, but I can't hear it over the hapiness I got from this book.

A thousand percent 5 star read, AMAZING😍😍

This was a fun, spicy sports romance series! Loved the interconnected characters and how they had real problems, but it was still an escape read.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for my copy of this e-arc

I sadly had to dnf this as much as I wanted to enjoy it, because single dads is one of my favourite tropes, I just couldn’t get on board because the Scottish stereo types were too much for me.

The one night stand was too much right off the bat because his sister had literally just said it had been 5 years but if it had been and nothing had happened it’s just too rushed to have happened that night. She didn’t need to lie and it was just a weird set up!
