Kings of Football

By: Meghan Quinn

Narrated by: Tim Paige, Kelsey Navarro

A new standalone romance from USA Today best-selling author Meghan Quinn and narrated by Tim Paige and Kelsey Navarro....

I haven't seen her in three years.

I haven't talked to her since the kiss.

So why am I on a plane, flying across the world to spend a week with her in Germany?

One word: Pops.

My life’s a mess.

My possible football career is hanging on by a thread.

I'm driving the roads of Germany in honor of Pops with the one girl I can never have.

And I’m sharing a bed with her, the girl I've measured everyone else up to, while desperately trying to not to touch her.

We made a pact growing up, never to get romantic with each other - never fall in love.

And I'm about to break that pact. For good.

childhood friends

His family kinda took her in each summer. Crew and Hazel are best friends growing up but drift apart. It takes a death of his grandfather and a trip he planned for them to reconnect. A wonderful journey to Germany over Christmas. It's a wonderful story. Love it so much. The narrators were a great choice and they did a wonderful job.

Amazing Characters!!

I enjoyed The Romantic Pact by Meghan Quinn. Narrated by Tim Paige and Kelsey Navarro. Meghan creates such fun characters, with connected histories and depth. You can’t help but to fall in love with them. Crew and Hazel are a perfect example of this!

Crew is a quarterback for his college football team, and recently just came off of a crappy season. His main reason was due to the death of his Pops. Crew spent his summers helping out his Pops at his farm, and were super close. Pops has one more surprise left for Crew. A trip to Germany. However, Crew won’t be visiting Germany alone. Hazel, his best friend from childhood, who helped on the Pop’s farm is coming too. When these two reunite, all kinds of fun ensues. Can these two deny their longing attraction?

Tim Paige and Kelsey Navarro are fantastic as Crew and Hazel. Their voices really worked well together! Tim’s portrayal of emotionally torn, but masculine Crew was spot on. Kelsey’s performance of independent, strong-willed but emotionally vulnerable Hazel was perfect!

Overall I really enjoyed this book! Meghan has written a fun, emotional, and heartfelt friends to lovers story! I look forward to many more from Meghan Quinn. I just adore everything about her books and characters! This book will make your heart happy!

A fantastic Romance story

This is not my first Meghan story. She always writes stories that are heart felt and a turn page story. This one involves 3 best friends that are football players .This one is the second one in a 3 author series but can listen to as a stand-alone. The story of self awareness and growth is amazing. Well written and leaves you wanting more! Narration was very well done, the story line flows smoothly . This story is about Crew ( Hollywood). After the season, Crew gets heat reaching, heart breaking news about his Grandfather, and the plans the grandfather made . Grab it and see . I am completely hooked on The story Meghan Quinn wrote .

The performance of Tim Paige and Kelsey Navarro was fantastic, they brought the characters to life and you can tell who each character is by their tone

so loving n funny

I laughed out loud many times to this book. I recommend it to anybody and everybody it was wonderful

⭐️ ⭐️ 4 Stars ⭐️ ⭐️

Friends to Lovers is my favorite trope! I loved that this book mostly takes place on a trip to Germany, listening to the details of all of the places, especially the Christmas Markets just added this trip as a wish list vacation for me. The story line with the grandfather's road trip plans and letter was so much fun and emotional at the same time. Crew & Hazel were very real for me, the way they bantered and acted even after they became lovers was realistic and felt natural to me! I really enjoyed this story line so much and the HEA was exactly what I needed.

The narration was good. I enjoyed both narrators, I really like Kelsey's voice for all characters and Tim's male voice is yummy.

Was a sweet story

This was a cute touching story. Had all the feel goods! ♡ Keept my emotions on a rollercoaster. If you're looking for a sweet Romance story this is a good listen.
Narration was good too.

A MUST listen!

Aaaahh!! Loved this so much! Couldn't stop listening! 🥰 Childhood friends to lovers, so many feels! 🥲 heartwarming slow Christmas-time burn in Germany! Cute, funny and h🔥t with the sly teasing and flirting!

Beautiful love story set in Germany!

I’ll be right back, I’m picking up my heart off of the floor. Crew and Hazel gave me all the feels. I laughed, I sighed, I cried. Meghan Quinn is my innuendo Queen. This story and her writing brought me to another level.

The Romantic Pact is a sports themed friends to lovers story. Crew and Hazel have known each other their whole lives. They would spend their summers together on Crew’s grandfather’s farm. Crew went to college and Hazel stayed on the farm and the two drifted apart. After Pops passes, he sends the two on a road trip through Germany. The same trip he went on with his wife. Pops planned the whole trip before he passed and the two are shocked at how personal it is. The two find themselves and each other on this trip.

I loved the scenery and background used for his story. Meghan wrote a beautiful story that made me miss travelling so much. I felt like I was there with them and experiencing the Christmas markets and all the delicious food. I want to take this exact trip even during the winter when it’s too cold. This was the exact place that Crew and Hazel needed to find each other again. Their romance story is beautiful, sweet and hot. The chemistry that the two have can’t be denied because it had been slowly building all these years.

I was given a code from Piece of Cake Audiobooks to listen to the audiobook version. It was narrated by Tim Paige and Kelsey Navarro. Their performances were wonderful and gut wrenching. I love everything by Meghan Quinn but listening to this story with their voices made it even more perfect.

Still crying about this beautiful story

The Mother Road is my all time favorite MQ book, so it was a no-brainer to listen to the book about Porter and Marley’s kiddos. As usual, this book did not disappoint. Kelsey Navarro and Tim Paige brought these characters to life in such a beautiful way. Like The Mother Road, a family member that has passed away plans a trip for the characters. In this book, there’s letters along the way that guide them and push them together. This childhood friends to lovers, almost a second chance, sports romance had me in tears, both happy and sad. Hearing Pops through letters after loving his goofy character in The Mother Road was so great. Watching the transformation of best friends into partners was beautiful. MQ doesn’t miss, and this is yet another testament to that. I couldn’t love this book more!

I've got a girl crush on Hazel

So normally I would gush about the hero in the story. But I have to say I have a little bit of a girl crush on the heroine. Hazel is hilarious, charming, funny and I love her. Her ability to be bold and witty on the outside while she's feeling insecure on the inside is charming.
I  gotta say this book totally gave me some big time wanderlust. I wanted to be right there with them in Germany. Exploring all those towns. Trying all the foods.
Megan Quinn is a genius when it comes to conversations between friends. She had me laughing out loud during those scenes when the boys are just talking back-and-forth to each other. Or when the girls are texting. I love her friends dynamics in her books. It's always so natural and fun. And it really helps me connect with the characters.
Kelsey Navarro and Tim Paige did such good work with this audiobook. Kelsey brought the right mix of sass and vulnerability to my new crush, making me love her even more. I really loved Tim doing the grandfather's letters. He really brought the right amount of emotions and I'm not gonna lie, he made me tear up a couple of times.
This was a super fun, at times emotional book that I really loved.
