Book Lists: Adult Sports Romances

Ok, this book list is a little bit different.

Regina Kyle told me all about Ted Lasso. She talked about it so much, I had to get Apple TV just to watch the show. And I binged the first season in 24 hours.

I'm waiting to watch the second season because it's nice to have something awesome in your back pocket when the world is so horrible these days.

What I loved about Ted Lasso:

Ted Lasso 

His Wolf Pack

The Sports Team

Rebecca and Keeley

Grumpy Roy

Jamie Tarte/Shark song

Practices

Nathan

Horrible ex-husband of Rebeeca (Giles) getting played

The Pub

The Scenery

The British Ways

The Army Toys

The first three, I read and loved.

Blitzed by Alexa Martin

Dating Playbook by Farrah Rochon

The Bromance Book Club by Lyssa Kay Adams

The second three, I'm looking forward to reading.

Head Over Heels by Hannah Orenstein

The Fastest Way to Fall by Denise Williams

Long Shot by Kennedy Ryan

I love sports romances, but I don't read enough. So I'm asking for your help. I'm not great reading ebooks, but I'd love some recommendations for print sports romances.

I read a bunch of YA ones, but not too many adult ones.

Bonus points if the heroine is the sports hero!

Romance Review: Blitzed

* Book 3 in the Playbook series *

Brynn's been around the Lady Mustangs enough to become friends with several of the women. It helps that they and some of the team players frequent her bar - including Maxwell.

Brynn's been crushing on him for a while - until one night his anger destroyed part of her bar. Of course he paid for the damages without being asked. But Brynn's no longer interested.

Maxwell comes to apologize. He can't tell her the details, but he's more sorry than she'll ever know. He's been wanting to date Brynn for months. He realizes this changes everything, but he'll do what it takes to win back her trust, her friendship, and maybe her heart.

My Thoughts: I love this series. I didn't want to put this book down. And I want to hang out with at Hers and grab a drink. Also I love the Lady Mustangs. I love the friendship in this series and how the women support each other. I love the moments at the game where the kids run wild and the women talk, but everyone comes together to watch football. I loved Maxwell and his slow approach, his banter, and his manners. I love how Brynn hooked him on Parks and Rec. Another great addition to this series and I'm already eagerly awaiting the next installment.

Review: Fumbled

* Book 2 in the Playbook series *

Poppy Patterson's main concern is her son. As a single mom, she worries about making his life the best that she can. She's not concerned about the past - until her past walks into her work.

When football player TK Moore walks into the club, he's stunned to see her. From their reunion, it's clear that they both have feelings for each other. When Poppy tells him about his son, TK flips out.

Poppy's not impressed. But when TK runs into his son on the soccer field, there's no denying the truth. He's dumbfounded to learn the truth about the past. TK knows he's can't make up for the past, but he can be present in the future - if Poppy will let him...

My Thoughts: I loved this book. I loved the chemistry between Poppy and TK. I loved Poppy and Ace and their relationship. I loved the friendships Poppy found within the wives and girlfriends of the team football players. I loved the snark and the support from the other women. I enjoyed hearing updates about the characters in the previous book. I liked the discussion about concussions and the dangers of playing football. I loved the second chance romance. I couldn't put this book down.
