Publisher's Summary

Ashton

If there's one thing I know, it's how to play the game...both on and off the field. If it hadn't been for that one teenage slipup where I kissed Beau Campbell, I'd be able to keep fooling myself. Football is the one thing I use to distract myself from the truth, and when I screw-up and lose the game I love, I find myself right back in Fever Falls. And right back face-to-face with Cranky Campbell, who hates me even more than he did when we were kids. Whatever magic he held over me then is still there. As much as I fight it, I still want him. And I always get what I want...well, except with Beau, who constantly calls me on my crap. Why do I like that so much?

Beau

I might've spent years watching Ash live out my dream - without the off-field antics and orgies with women, at least - but I've made a good life for myself. I'm a firefighter, and I coach my brother's football team for those with developmental disabilities. But when Ash swings back into town armed with his monster ego and an arsenal of stupid nicknames, everyone is in awe of him. Nope, not me. I don't care if our kiss years ago was responsible for my sexual awakening. I won't fall for Ashton Carmichael. Though that resolution would be a whole lot easier if he wasn't so tempting. Once he finds his way into my bed, I'm screwed - in more ways than one. But there's more to Ash than meets the eye, buried beneath his ego, sarcasm and how we burn up the sheets together. Soon, it's more than a game. We don't just get each other fired up, we just might win each other's hearts.

Too bad things are never that simple....

I adored this sports romance!

Pro footballer Ashton Carmichael makes headlines for all the wrong reasons so when he fails to win a new contract, he heads back to his home town of Fever Falls to lick his wounds and contemplate the loss of his career. He reestablishes his friendship with old high school frenemy Beau Campbell, but he’s wrong-footed with Beau’s openness about being gay and it challenges something deep in Ashton about his sexuality and feelings for Beau that he’s never wanted to acknowledge. I adored this story! Riley Hart captured Ashton’s conflicted nature and the connection between the two guys perfectly. I thought Kenny, Beau’s brother with Down Syndrome, was portrayed sensitively, although there were a few times he seemed to say the perfect thing exactly on cue. Michael Dean performed the audio with such talent - just superb! Can’t wait for the rest of the series!!

Outstanding

This is one of the best audiobooks around. Ashton and Beau are a beautiful couple, with such deeply developed characters. Kenny steals the show though with such a sensitive and thoughtful portrayal from both writer and narrator. Riley is one fantastic writer, she never fails to deliver. This was my first audiobook with Michael Dean, he’s brilliant. I have just bought the next three books in the audio series of Fever Falls. Bravo 🤩 .

Book Was Ok. Narrator was awful.

The book was an ok story, cute and likeable, but not very exciting. I kept waiting for something to happen. The narrator however was awful. Especially when he was doing Ashton’s voice. He sounded really nasally, it was horrible to listen to.
