Fun, fast-paced sports romance with great humor and heart. I love the tight-knit, over-protective
Harris family, especially their sassy sister Vi, whom they all worship. It's very much juxtaposed to both Indie (Challenge, book 1) and Belle's family situations or lack-there of since neither are close to their families.

I devoured Challenge and Endurance back-to-back and loved Amy Daws quirky (maybe a little crazy at times), feisty and brilliant female characters, and her athletic, cocky and swoon-worthy Harris brothers. Challenge was a bit too repetitive for me, so Endurance was a welcome surprise. Belle and Tanner's banter is great and Endurance is filled with lots of humor and a whole lot of sexy. And I love that it builds on all the relationships we saw in Challenge (but it can be read as a stand alone). Not to mention the epilogue will have you laughing out loud!

Endurance has lots of laughs, great heart and lots of sexy. If you're looking for a sports romance, grab this one up! I'm looking forward to more of the Harris clan!

Dnf’d at 7 chapters. This is my second go at Amy Daws and I understand I’m in the minority but I really can’t get past the casual sexism and the “not like other girls” and the truly disgusting language Tanner uses when describing Belle and other women. I also can’t get behind someone like Belle who yeah, has a hair trigger temper, but has words like “screams” and “yells” after almost all her dialogue. You can be confident without being arrogant. You can be a slut without being disgusting. It’s just really not for me. I draw the line at Tanner using the word “cans” to describe Belle’s boobs not once, not twice, but three times. Like my guy, you’ve seen your fair share and have slept with how many women and “cans” is what you’re going with? Yuck. Nope. No thanks. I don’t care how attractive he is, the total lack of respect and kindness in him is not at all worth it for me to stick it out.

The Harris brothers are bloody amazing! (See what I did there? ;) ) Cam is still my favorite and I have a feeling Booker is going to be a close second, but Tanner is still one heck of a sexy British footballer! I loved the snarky banter between Tanner and Belle. Belle has a sharp tongue and Tanner is her perfect match. They literally had be laughing out loud at my desk. I definitely have a newfound appreciation for mankinis after reading Endurance and I'm sure you will too!

I highly recommend the audiobook version of Endurance, because Will Watt and Charlotte Cole are amazing narrators and the accents really help bring the story to life.
