About this listen

This college jock is a total player. He's used to getting who and what he wants. Until her....

Katrina

The hottest guy on campus won't stop asking me out. I know that sounds like a good problem to have, but this guy...this guy has no idea how complicated my life is trying to juggle being a single mom and college student.

Every Thursday, he shows up at the café where I work. His cheesy pickup lines and arrogance should have me completely annoyed. I'm not. I can't say yes, but Thursday is my favorite day of the week.

Joel

The hottest girl on campus won't go out with me. I know, I know, that sounds presumptuous, but this girl...this girl has gotten under my skin, and I can't seem to walk away.

Every Thursday, I show up at the café where she works. She's fed me every excuse in the book. I should give up and bang one of the many girls blowing up my phone. I'm not. Even when she says no, Thursday is my favorite day of the week.

College Hot Guy and Single Mum

The Fadeaway is the second book in the Smart Jocks series, but can be read as a standalone. This college based romance features basketball player and popular/hot guy Joel and single mum Katrina as the 2 main characters.

Joel is THE popular guy on campus. Girls throw themselves at him, and he has basically been sleeping his way through college. That all changes when he notices Katrina at the coffee shop, but she continually turns him down and won't go out with him. Katrina is a single mum to an adorable 3 year old son, and regardless of her attraction to Joel she knows of his reputation with the ladies and has more important priorities like her son and college.

Joel is much deeper than his initial portrayal of the easy going hot guy just looking for hook-ups, and I was really invested in getting to the part of the story where he realises how deep his feelings run for his *kitty*. The Fadeaway was a fun book to listen to, and the narrators for both Joel and Katrina were really good.

loved it

Every gal needs to be firm on her word and Katrina keeps hers. Joel undeterred keeps coming at her until she relents. Bad boy feather ruffling or morphing into a respectable young man and the relationship of a single mum and the turmoil of dealing with the childs father, new guy knowing her kid was well done. All the while jiggling work, school and dealing with A jock
