    About this audiobook

    My friends used to tell me "What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas." Clearly, they lied because a few months later, I found out my one-night stand was pregnant.
    I couldn't handle a baby. I was Griffin Rockwell, the best wide receiver the league had ever seen. But what choice did I have? My baby girl was coming whether I was ready for her or not.

    Brooke turned out to be an amazing woman and mother. For seven years, we were the MVP's of co-parenting-and even better friends.

    That all changed when tragedy struck our makeshift family and I was faced with the terrifying possibility of losing the one woman I was quickly realizing I couldn't live without.

    I was at the height of my career and on the path to becoming the greatest of all time. But keeping my family together, with Brooke by my side, might prove to be the hardest route of all.

      “So, who’s on your list?” Nick looks eagerly at me. I take a sip of my coffee. “What list?” “You know. The list.” He shovels a handful of popcorn into his mouth. “She’s on mine.” He nods toward the TV. “Keira Knightly?” I ask. “Yeah.” “I still have n

      Being 10 years old and living in a small Missouri town in the mid-1960s, my life was pretty darn good and carefree. Bowling Green was a very friendly town, kind of like the Mayberry of Missouri. I seemed to have something of a weekly routine: five da

      I moved to Los Angeles to sing. When was this? August? June? I was twenty-nine, and those were shapeless months, when the days blended together and I refused to pull them apart. My landlord was unusually close to her adult son. His name was Jeffrey,

    • 5/5
      It was such a unique story ❤️❤️ a love that was started back wards❤️ but every moment and trials was worth it ❤️❤️
    • 4/5
      Loved the male narrator but as a southerner, those crap southern accents are like nails on a chalkboard. So narration is a 3 ⭐️ at best. For the length of the book it doesn’t drag, and time jump helps, writer smartly skips over any outside romantic relationships for both Brooke & Griffin, wish the gap wasn’t quite so long 4 yrs would have been plenty 7 seemed excessive for 2 people who have no reason not to seek a normal relationship to independently not be attached for 7 yrs. Success never seems to go Griffin’s head, that’s different. Characters are relatable, story doesn’t get stagnant, quite a few unexpected wrinkles. She’s older than he is and the world doesn’t end, Brooke doesn’t give up her personal goals, another plus. They don’t agree on all things parenting but they work together, we don’t get dragged through extended details of every little parent conflict. Little Bean is a happy and well loved kid, a lesson in how to parent from afar with being absentee. Interesting & satisfying book. Wish there was a little more actual football to the story, but ya can’t have everything
