Okay so after reading Intercepted, I thought there was no way that Alexa Martin could write another hero that I would love as much as I love Gavin, but then she wrote TK, and I forgot all about Gavin. We met TK in intercepted and just from the few times he was mentioned, I knew that I would like him and I was happy that he was getting a book. I will say that I wasn't super excited that it was going to be about a surprise child, but in the end I freaking loved it. Poppy and TK have so much history and chemistry and their story pulled me in and kept my attention. I can't think of one thing that I did not like about this book, it checks all of my boxes. It was sweet, swoony and steamy. Both MC's are awesome (flawed for sure, but who isn't), the side characters are great, I liked the conversation about CTE. And it was a quick fun read, even with the heavy topics.
I wanted to like this so much more than I did! Was marketed as inspired by Travis Kelce (lol) and that part delivered, but a lot of the side characters were so not for me - the skinny “bitch” with the big hair, dated and gross references to the size of women’s bodies, etc. Most likely won’t be coming back for any other books in the series.
I loved Intercepted, so was excited for another in the series. I think these books don’t really follow the typical romance beats, which is actually kind of fun. The plot here is so focused on Poppy and her life (job, kid, snark, how she’s gonna make it work) and the cast of girlfriends (AMAZING). The love interest was hot, but almost incidental with so much spotlight on our girl. Conflicts arose and were handled one by one, with lots of joy and good things for Poppy along the way. Definitely excited for the next one. (Oh, and the audiobook narrator was just fantastic.)
Very spicy at moments. A cute love story of a lost love and family, and of course football!
It felt a little more realistic than the first one, which I liked. But the story is a bit heavier and some of the issues touched on in the story deserved a bit more time, I think.
I love sports romance and this series has been so much fun to read! I love Poppy, TK and Ace. Poppy is dedicated to giving her son the best life she can and Ace is a spit fire who loves sports. When TK Moore spots Poppy at her job, he knows he can't just walk away from her again.
This series is so much fun! This was a great book and a fast read, I can not wait to read the next one!

Mini Audiobook Review: 4.5 - Thank you so much to PRH Audio for the complimentary copy of this book!
This book made a big splash in the last few months due to a highly profile relationship between a certain pop star and a certain football player whose initials are TK. And Alexa has confirmed that Travis Kelce was the inspo for TK Moore.
Once again Alexa has done it again! I absolutely loved this one and I thought Poppy being a single mom was a fun touch to the book (in majority of my romances, neither the FMC or MMC are parents). I also thought that it was smart for Alexa to include that Poppy's son is aware that he has dad and that he didn't know he existed which made that storyline go a little smoother.
Poppy got lucky being surrounded by such great WAGs with children that she can share this new world with as well as surround Ace with other athlete's children.
My only qualm is that I understood Poppy's concerned with CTE and the dangers of concussions but I don't know. They just started to date again and I know he is the father of her son but I wasn't sure if she should've been in the position to make that decision for him?
These books are turning into being just such a fun series - on to the next!

This was so fun, I read it in two sittings. I instantly loved Poppy and she quickly showed herself to be a strong, badass women who wasn't going to take any crap from anyone or let others intimidate her or make her feel inferior. After her first encounter (or re-encounter) with TK I knew I would soon be swooning over him and I was right. Yes he had me mad sometimes, but overall he was amazing and supportive and I totally fell for him. Ace was the most adorable, sweet kid and seeing all three of them together had my heart growing. There were definitely some ups and downs in Poppy and TK's new relationship and I really felt for Poppy's concerns as she tried to protect not only her son, but her heart. The ending was wonderful and shocking and I could not be happier. I also appreciate how the danger of football/sports and CTE was demonstrated throughout this story because it is something that is so often glossed over in American culture and I love how fiercely Poppy was going to protect her son AND how TK respected her wishes. I can't wait to read the rest of the books in this series.
My favorite one so far! I loved Poppy and TK! I think a part of me really related to Poppy being a single mom. I loved seeing how her relationship developed with TK and all that he was willing to give up for their family. So many emotions felt throughout. Laughed, anger, sadness. Looking forward to reading the next one!
