One of PopSugar's Best Romances of October
With the stakes this high, it’s no longer just a game for the Mustang’s quarterback in this
 romance by the author of Blitzed.

Elliot Reed is living her best life—or pretending to. She owes it to her dad’s memory to be happy and make the most of her new job as Strategic Communications Manager for the Denver Mustangs. Things are going well until star quarterback Quinton Howard Jr. decides to use the field as his stage and takes a knee during the national anthem.
As the son of a former professional athlete, Quinton knows the good, the bad, and the ugly about football. He's worked his entire life to gain recognition in the sport, and now that he has it, he’s not about to waste his chance to change the league for better. Not even the brilliant but infuriating Elliot, who the Mustangs assign to manage him, will get Quinton back in line.
 
A rocky initial meeting leads to more tension between Quinton and Elliot. But as her new job forces them to spend time together, Elliot realizes they may have more in common than she could've imagined. With her job and his integrity on the line, this is one coin toss that nobody can win.

      Narrator Soneela Nankani runs the field in this timely sports romance. Elliot Reed, strategic communications director for the Denver Mustangs, addresses the public relations challenge caused when Black quarterback Quinton Howard, Jr., takes a knee before games. In her throaty voice, Nankani depicts Elliot's struggles as a biracial employee who must deal with the white male team owner's workplace behavior. Nankani's emphasis on certain phrases, both in dialogue and in Elliot's thoughts, creates humor and frustration with equal fluency. Other characters, including Elliot's female friends, are slightly differentiated in conversation. Quinton's speech stays in a narrow pitch range that fits his warm yet restrained manner. Narrator Cary Hite delivers the prologue, which tells the story of Quinton's first protest. Nankani's narration, powerful and focused, ensures that this audiobook works well as a stand-alone.
