Wow. Wow wow wow. What a way to kickstart a career. Riley Paige knows football and as the daughter of a coach, and former manager of my high school team that means a lot to me. I was cheering for Jaxon and the boys both on and off the field, and the raw, real, and relatable description of Mads mental struggle was both comforting and inspiring. I am in fact so upset I will have to wait for so long to read Carter’s story. If you love football, love real characters, and have ever felt like you were too broken to be loved, this book is the one for you.
