the baller a down and dirty football novel

Delilah seems stuck in the past and sometimes does a two steps forward, one step back dance that can be frustrating. That commonality strengthens their bond, but their histories affect them differently. I liked that the author didn’t go the predictable route of making them hide their relationship because of her career. Their connection both in and out of the bedroom is palpable. They’re funny, sexy, and thank goodness they don’t try to manipulate each other. I loved, loved, loved Brody and Delilah together. There’s something gratifying about making a famous quarterback – who is used to public adoration and willing women – work for it. His trips to the nursing home are both touching and funny, and his sexy alpha male side is deliciously irresistible.

Outward appearances can be deceiving though because he keeps the fact that he’s really a big softy under wraps. He’s arrogant, aggressively flirtatious, and the first to admit he’s an ass. The author’s love of football is clearly evident, and I thoroughly enjoyed learning the nitty-gritty of sports reporting.īrody is a Super Bowl MVP.

Placing a checkmark in all those columns makes it seem formulaic however, the characters really help elevate this story.ĭelilah is a confident football sportscaster in an industry dominated by men.

The Baller has everything I look for in a sports romantic comedy: a ballsy heroine, a cocky athlete, banter up the wazoo, real integration of the sport, and a mature relationship. Due to strong language and sexual content, this book is not intended for readers under the age of 18. There's a story between once upon a time and happily ever after.Īuthor's note - The Baller is a full-length standalone novel. Turned out, I was that girl.Simple right?
