Dylan
Wrecker is dead. I keep on repeating it to myself over and over again as I chase after Becca. I need her forgiveness for all the ways I hurt her not only to save myself and her, but also to save my son. Getting her back is easy. Keeping her is not. I am not here for a relationship but to give us both closure. Becca has other ideas.

Becca
Just when I think I’m getting my life back together, Dylan crashes into it and changes everything. He tells me that he doesn’t want me forever and that he will leave. He needs me to understand it. Yet, he refuses to go away. When life gives us both more than we can handle, it is my turn to send him on his way with no remorse.

***WARNING*** This book is Part Three of the Wrecked series, and it ends in a cliffhanger.

Title: Hard Count
Series: A Men of Fall Novel
Author: S.R. Grey
Genre: Sports Romance/Romantic Comedy
Release Date: May 24, 2022


Pro footballer Mike Vinceton desperately wants to get away before the Comets’ new season begins.
Lucky for him the tropical destination he chooses turns out to be perfect.
Not only does he find himself rested and refreshed, but he just met the most tantalizing woman. Her name is Lexi, and their connection is insane.
Too bad their time is cut short—before Mike can learn her last name . . . or where she lives.
Alas, such is life.
Resigned that he’ll never see Lexi again, Mike returns to Ohio to head off to training camp. But what he doesn’t know is he’s about to run into her again, in a most unexpected place.
See, Lexi is the Comets’ owner’s daughter. And though her dad would love for her to take more of an interest in the team, that definitely doesn’t include her dating a player.
Hell no!
Cue the sneaking around . . . and Mike and Lexi praying her dad doesn’t find out.

Hard Count is the fifth novel in the bestselling Men of Fall football romance series and can be read as a standalone.



REVIEW
Rating: 3.5*

Mike is about to start in his new team the Comets as their back-up quarterback. On holiday, he has a quick fling with Lexi before flying him. Lexi is there to let off steam after graduating college and decides to act on the chemistry she feels for Mike. Lexi is the daughter of the owner of the Comets but she has no idea who he is and he has no idea who she is. With their return home, their paths are bound to cross again.

Whilst this was part of a series I have really enjoyed, I struggled a little with this instalment. Lexi was a character I went back and forward on. Her stance in not wanting to work with her dad  because she is not interested in football is admirable and she would rather be waitressing, yet she is happy for her dad to support her lifestyle with the car and holiday she wouldn't be able to afford on a waitressing salary. When she does give in to having some role in the organisation, she is content showing up for social events and the shopping that goes with that. Equally I struggled with the owner's daughter never watching a football game until Mike encourages her to go and learn about the game. 

Mike was a character I liked.  He was supportive towards Lexi, compassionate, empathetic and more, along with with encouraging. As back-up quarterback, he doesn't get much game time but it doesn't dent his enthusiasm for the game and his planning for his future.

The first half of this book didn't seem to flow as easily as the second half or other books in the series. It felt stilted at times in terms of the description and the conversation between characters. But once you get through this you end up with a decent read and a decent story and liking the characters.






Goodreads Review - “I was riveted from the first to the last chapter….”

Goodreads Review - “It was a true love story.”

Thelma and Louise Book Blog - “This is a captivating read with wonderful characters and it will appeal to a wide range of audiences.”
