A solid ending to the Red Zone Rivals series. I enjoyed this book it was a nice and easy read. Some of my favorite scenes in the book were when Leo and Mary were with the rest of the group. I will say this book’s use of the big dick trope was a little over the top, so much so I laughed out loud. I also didn’t love the third act breakup I really didn’t feel like Leo’s actions should have caused that reaction. Despite that I still enjoyed the book!

Having read the last three books in the series, I was well aware of Mary's hate for Leo. I was curious to find out what brought on such intense emotions from her. Steiner lays it all out for us in the first chapters of this book, and Mary had every right to hate him. I had a hard time reading these chapters. It made me lose some respect for Leo, but I also understood that fitting in during high school is everything. Teenagers make bad decisions and mistakes. It made me wonder how he would be able to redeem himself to both me and Mary.

I really enjoyed how this book was set up by putting Mary and Leo as roommates in the same house. The way she got to know all the football roommates was fun and I loved seeing them break down her football player hating ways. It was even sweeter when it was Leo making Mary question her dislike of him. I kind of wished she wouldn't have kept why she hated him bottled up for so long, but the explosion made it worth it.

Mary and Leo were fire together. Their chemistry could not be denied, and neither could their emotional connection. These two went deep into their feelings with and for each other. I wasn't a huge fan of the problem that came up for them and some of the resolution felt a little farfetched for this book, but it all worked out in a good way in the end.

Hail Mary turned out to be a great addition to this angsty new adult football series and a strong way to end it. I will miss these couple and characters.
