My job is simple: make Maverick Jennings, the world’s grumpiest quarterback, look like a decent human being. If I can’t fix his reputation, I can kiss my dream of launching my own brand consulting business goodbye.

His job? Making my life a living nightmare.

He’s arrogant, impossible, and entirely too handsome for someone so determined to self-destruct. He rejects every idea, challenges every strategy, and looks at me like he can’t decide whether to strangle me or kiss me. Honestly, same.

But the closer I get to the man behind the headlines, the more I realize his scowl is hiding a world of pain.

He’s my most difficult client. I’m his last chance.

It only takes one reckless night to change everything.

Somewhere between tension and temptation, protecting his image became more than just a job. Now my career is in the red zone, and the wrong choice between loyalty and love could cost me everything.

RED ZONE is a spicy Pro Football, Enemies to Lovers, Grumpy/Sunshine Romance from Amazon Top Ten Bestselling author Lisa Suzanne. This standalone in the Bradley Legacy is a swoony, emotional roller coaster that will tug at your heartstrings.

This is the third book in The Bradley Legacy series, a sports romance, and I absolutely loved it! Maverick and Everleigh’s slow burn romance is fun, passionate, and engaging. Maverick is a grumpy, handsome and enigmatic football player, while Everleigh, the Bradley sister and a brand strategist, is smart, and determined. Their opposites attract dynamic works perfectly, making this a beautifully written grumpy sunshine romance. Liam DiCosimo and Stefanie Kay did a fantastic job bringing the characters and their story to life. I really enjoyed this one—Lisa Suzanne never disappoints!

I loved it!

Tropes: Sports (Football), Enemies to Lovers, Forced Proximity, Grumpy / Sunshine, Forbidden (Workplace)

I have absolutely loved the previous books in this world and I’ve been waiting for Everly’s story. She’s such a spitfire and after wrangling all those brothers was the perfect FMC for someone like Maverick. He has a bit of a traumatic background so gets lots of leeway from me but at times he was downright unlikable. I appreciated the progression of “The Bradley Legacy” plot line and was saddened by other ongoing issues. I am very much looking forward to the remaining brother’s stories though.

The audio aspect was pretty good. Stephanie Kay did a particularly good job with the dual style narration and brought so much life to Everly’s character. Liam DiCosimo has the perfect tone for the broody MMC and voiced his character very well.

The chemistry is sizzling in the pro football romance and the line in the book where Everly says she feels like the gif from Golden Girls where Blanch sprays water on herself describes how she feels when dealing with Maverick is how the readers will feel about this book boyfriend.

There is more to the grumpy pro footballer that Everly slowly drags from him and in the process the first angsty intimate encounter flourishes to more.

Tragedy surrounds them both and the support they give each other leads to love until her father’s underground casino causes Maverick to beg Everly to save his career but she chooses her father which leads to their romance to be blown apart.

It takes the owner of the Vegas Aces and her mother and brother, Mac’s teammate to allow Everly to see she chose the wrong man.

The Bonus epilogue is rather romantic and finishes the book perfectly.

How much fun is this? Everleigh is the Bradley who is going to carry on the legacy of the family and being hired to help Maverick, a football player on the Vegas Aces pulls her right into the heart of it all. Maverick has an attitude. He has been traded to the Aces, and has been benched for his attitude after an injury caused by one of his teammates. Evie has her work cut out for her, as he doesn't want her there and isn't interested in the help. But her approach is so much different. Truly caring about her charge, she is working to find out what makes him tick and why he is the way he is. All that close proximity though has feelings growing and that is not allowed. Will they act on them and where does it all lead? I loved this. Why? Well, I loved having a female Bradley! Awesome character, she is emotionally driven and is very serious about her job. Maverick finds out just what it's like to be loved. But nothing is easy. Family is important and Evie has a choice to make. Plus there is so much going on! Give this one a listen, it's fantastic and truly shows Lisa Suzanne's talent.

Liam DiCosimo and Stefanie Kay are the story tellers and they bring this grumpy sunshine out right at the gate. DiCosimo understands all the facets of Maverick and uses his voice to let out every feeling he has. And he has a lot of them! Kay is Evie, full of love and passion, confusion and frustration. She portrays the hurt and love of family perfectly. Together these two made the magic to keep me entertained and I loved it!

Being traded to quarterback the team in Las Vegas was supposed to be a fresh start for Maverick however he is still having the same problems when it comes to reputation. The team isn’t about to let it continue so they hire Everleigh to help turn things around and it was beginning to work until he finds himself with a difficult choice when it comes to his career and the feelings he has for her.

The opportunity to go to Vegas will allow Everleigh to open her own company if everything goes well. She had declined offers to work with athletes in the past due to her family’s connections to sports so when she finds out who her client would be she has reservations. Understanding why he acts the way he does brings them closer, but she finds herself torn when it comes to her feelings for him.

Maverick has a tumultuous past which ensures that he doesn’t allow anyone close and also leads to some bad choices and Everleigh is the first person that he wants to be close to however their path contains both emotion and angst. Liam Dicosimo does a masterful job bringing out the many facets of Maverick’s personality while Stefanie Kay brings out the conflict that Everleigh is feeling both personally and professionally.

Everleigh and Maverick!
