I started it and loved it but towards the middle I just couldn't get into it. I'm going to come back to it but for now 3 stars.
Brody was so easy to love once you got to know him!
Give people a chance, folkes, but ofc tell them if they are being arrogant-asses;)

Reread Nov 2017: I still love this book.

first read thoughts:
THE BALLER has been on my TBR for a long time. After loving BOSSMAN, I knew I had to read it asap. Which is what I did. So here I am days after finishing it and I'm still feeling all warm and fuzzy about it because it was that good. I can guarantee that I will reread this.

This book was so awesome. It was so much more than I thought it was going to be. Another wonderful book by Vi Keeland. ***5 stars***
Delilah and Brody are a very cute couple.
Brody want her under him, and Delilah want a relationship. So we get to read about a chase, which I love.
Brody is sexy and arrogant, but he is also determined, loyal, and romantic in his own way.
Delilah, is working in a man's world but she earned it. She has been on "Vagina Cleanse" No sex for 6 months.
Brody is tempting her cleanse, Hell he's tempting mine, well not my cleanse, just my Vagina.
This was a cute quick read. It has dirty talk and some good banter.
This would have been a 5 star read for me but about 50% a new POV comes, and it made me lose the connection with Hero and Heroine,

“I think most women, especially women who work hard and have a lot on their mind, prefer a man to come home, lift her off her feet and take her against the wall rather than hand her some bullshit flowers and pussyfoot around with sweet gestures all night.”

The Baller is a complete standalone from Vi Keeland. I've read all of her 2015 releases, plus a few earlier ones and I've loved them all. The thing is, The Baller just might be my favorite sports romance...ever. This is kind of a big deal.
Brody Easton is the star quarterback of New York's championship football team. He's a player on and off the field but has had his share of heartbreak and it still haunts him.
"There are so many things I want to do to you."
Delilah Maddox is a football brat and brought it with her into her career as a sportscaster for a leading news network. She's perfectly happy living her single life and has no reason to make any changes.
"How could a girl not fall the rest of the way when she knows she can count on the man she adores to catch her when she does."
I really felt a lot of feelings in The Baller. Brody was set on getting Delilah and he went to great lengths to do so. It wasn't just your typical alpha/heroine romance, though. Both characters have had hard hands dealt to them and they have much to overcome before they can rely on each other.
My only negative thought on The Baller was Willow's point of view. As Brody's ex, I understand her thought process, but it really left me confused as to where the story would go.
Vi's writing was grand as always. A perfect mix of comedy, angst, and HOTNESS! Hello 'Subway'! I blew through this story. I didn't want it to end but needed to know the outcome at the same time. Another must-read from Vi Keeland.

A great book, but the last third or so of the book made it a 4 instead of a 5 for me! I'm definitely looking forward to reading more from this author!

Brody & Delilah
I FLOVED, this book. I actually wanted to read it in paperback and had ordered it through amazon but after almost 2 months of waiting then it was on back order again I said screw it and got the e-book, then I got side tracked but wow what a great book.
The Super Bowl MVP Brody is one heck of a cocky SOB! When Delilah starts her first day on the job as a professional sportscaster she needs to interview Brody. Oh he is arrogant and quite literally drops his towel to try and fluster her, but she is a professional right she gets through it.
( Naked )
Brody wants her, she says no, and no, and no, but he is not to be detoured. He goes after what he wants and what he wants is Delilah. Oh she wants him too but she is holding out, her heart and head need to be on the same page.
Brody is patient but he finds his ways to make sure he is never far from her mind.
These two have some smoking hot chemistry that will sizzle, your panties right off. Oh the back and forth is wonderful and witty! I couldn’t get enough.
There are def twists and turns and it’s not just her POV or his POV but we have a third characters POV and that’s where the book really gets interesting a must read I say.
*You don't have to like my review but its 100% my opinion, and I am allowed to have it.*

“Great. I feel great. And how about you? It’s your first trip into the locker room, isn’t it? Do you like what you see so far?” - Brody

“I had that feeling of teetering on the top of a roller coaster, about to go down a steep hill…only that anxious and excited feeling wasn’t in my stomach, it was in my panties.”- Delilah

“Brody Easton, the man who’d entered my life like a storm, had turned out to be my calm. How was that for irony?” –Delilah
