The Quarterback Keeper

The Package Deal Series, Book 1

De: Rheland Richmond, Emerson Beckett

Narrado por: Alexander Cendese, J.F. Harding

Alex: I'm the starting quarterback for the Portland Pirates, and I have a thing for my son's teacher. Except I didn't know the cute blond on the beach with the giant dog was my kid's teacher until two months later at Open House.

Christian took my breath away during my vacation and introduced me to things I never knew could feel so good and be so right. I think he just might be the one who inspires me to tell the world that this NFL quarterback is bisexual and in love with a man.

That is until I blew the best thing to happen to me since my kids were born. All I know is I have to get him back. I had to find a way to keep him.

Christian: I never imagined I would meet the love of my life while being bowled over on the beach by the Newfoundland I was dog-sitting. But that's exactly how I ended up on my back in the sand, wrapped in his arms and pressed into the sand by the six-foot-five dark-haired Adonis. Did I mention he had two beautiful children?

Our week together was worthy of a sexy modern-day fairytale full of promises about the future until he sent me the text that broke my heart. And how was I supposed to get over him when his six-year-old son was in my class?

Contains mature themes.

loved the big guy/little guy theme. nice story of a closeted sports pro slowly coming out while his out boyfriend patiently waits. Good narration.

love is love

I would recommend this to any LGBTQ+ Reader, it brought me to tears 😢

I loved this story

This story was perfect. Sports Insta love with kids and dogs. I can't wait to hear the rest of the series. the narration was fanfreakingtastic. all the feels with this one.👏❤🔥

Definitely a Keeper!

This was my first book from these authors and I loved it. A great mix of sweet & sexy times. Of course Alexander & JF did a terrific job narrating as always! ❤️🔥

Masculinity, Discovery, Tenderness, Strength, Courage and LOVE!

I loved the storyline from the way Alex & Christian met through the hardships, the developing relationship and enduring love!

Engaging storyline but medium heat 🔥🔥🔥/5

A thoroughly enjoyable read, Quarterback Keeper held my attention and had me rooting for the MCs.
The storyline was engaging and interesting, and although a bit predictable, I loved the central characters and the way the authors made them react to poor behaviour. I love a strong backbone in a sensitive character, and adored Christian & Alex for that.
Outstanding narration by seasoned vocal actors, I could listen to these guys all day. I absolutely adore Cendese’s intonations and the way he brings a story to life!
My only gripe is that I have become greedy for long & detailed intimate scenes, of which, in this book there are only a handful. The MCs mention other intimate moments that occurred within the timeline of the story and I felt frustrated that I didn’t get to experience them in real time from the POV of the MCs. If you don’t need a lot of heat, then this offering is perfect, but I found it wanting. When I first started reading MM romances a year ago I would have thought this book was hot, but now that I’ve read and enjoyed more raunchy ones, my tastes have changed and so I’m not sure I will search for more from these authors.

only ok

it was difficult to keep my attention. it felt cliche, already done, not a lot of tension, a cooked noodle of a story. who doesn't google the rich guy next door before dating him? add convenient to the list, unsurprising, plotfully blah. however, I did my best to finish and I can see why others would like it. if you haven't read 350 gay romance books, you'd may just like it.

Great narration. Decent story.

I picked up this audiobook because Alexander Cendese and J.F. Harding are two of my favorite narrators. I was not disapointed by their narration. I find their voices to be very pleasant, and their performance is smooth and engaging. The story had some interesting moments. It was packed with tropes which can be entertaining. The conflicts didn't quite work for me. I had trouble believing that the characters connected so intensely in such a short amount of time. I just wasn't convinced. I also didn't like the way a certain individual was villainized. That didn't seem very plausible either.

If you are looking for a tropey romance with great narration, this is worth a listen.
