I enjoyed this book more than the first and thought the main conflicts were stronger. I thought the frank look at concussions in football was also really beneficial. The subplots were the weakest points of the book for me—I didn’t feel the mother subplot got the resolution needed and the stalker storyline felt more like filler—but on the whole I enjoyed this read.

The downside to reading really good arcs months before they're released is having to wait even longer for the next book.
I started this book on my 30 minute lunch break and in 2 chapters, the characters completely sucked me in! That was at 12:30, it's just after 7pm and I already finished this book.
In fanfiction, I'm a sucker for an athlete romance, but in Fumbled, there aren't any of the outlandishly stereotyped characters or tropes and I'm completely in love with it. TK was completely swoon worthy and I loved how he was always able to take a step back, even in anger, and see Poppy's point of view and compromise. And Poppy? I love a character who's sassy and speaks their mind.
A bonus for me was that though TK and Poppy are an interracial couple, race isn't a heavy part of the story.
Loved it!

This was a fluffy, mindless read. I was annoyed by a few things, but enjoyed it overall. This was pure uncomplicated fantasy.
After absolutely *loving* the audiobook for [b:Intercepted|37585029|Intercepted (Playbook, #1)|Alexa Martin|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1518037953s/37585029.jpg|59194418], I was really looking forward to the release of this latest book by Alexa Martin. Sadly, I was bored out of my mind. I honestly would have quit it if I was not so thoroughly convinced that it HAD to get better based on my love for the prior book. Spoiler alert: it didn't get better.
I really dislike the secret baby trope, and while this was presented as a somewhat unintentional one, I still didn't enjoy it. Add in some drama that came and went nowhere (stalker, evil mother of the boyfriend) and I was ready for this book to end. I did appreciate the author's attempt to focus on brain injuries caused by football - but it didn't make for a captivating storyline.
I recommend skipping this one, but definitely *listen* to the audiobook for [b:Intercepted|37585029|Intercepted (Playbook, #1)|Alexa Martin|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1518037953s/37585029.jpg|59194418]!
