About this listen

What happens when an almost 30-year-old virgin agrees to let her Scottish footballer best friend give her some lessons in seduction?

Lots of banter, awkwardness, jealousy, and heat.

Midfielder Maclay "Mac" Logan is a loud-mouthed, tattooed ginger content with focusing on football. But when an adorable, freckled seamstress comes barreling into his life, he finds Netflix-And-Bickering with her to be his new favorite pastime.

Freya Cook is used to being the invisible woman with a needle and thread, offering cheeky punchlines as she helps dress London's finest. She's plus-sized in body and spirit, and other than her friendship with Mac, talking to the opposite sex is one skill she never mastered.

However, after one innocent game of Never Have I Ever, Mac offers to play Love Coach for Freya.

What neither of them see coming are the feelings that develop when the clothes come off.

Now they’re both about to learn the biggest lesson of all: Don't fall in love with your best friend.

Blindsided is a full length (97,000 words) contemporary rom-com standalone with a sports theme.

What a story it was! Funny, heartwarming and totally engrossing the reader!

Freya and Mac are perfect friends to lovers couple. Their banter is not changing and you can totally connect to them through the story.

I won’t lie the narration helped a lot as the narrators were amazing with giving love to Amy’s words!

Amazing.

Mac is a sweet, sexy and successful football player. He plays the game not only for himself but for those that he loves the most and is determined not to let them down which means not getting distracted by anything and that includes women. Freya is a curvy seamstress who appears to be outgoing and confident but inside she has the same insecurities we all do that when it comes to other people we don’t always measure up.

Mac and Freya are the type of friends that just enjoy the time they spend together where it doesn’t matter what they are doing the banter between them is both hilarious and honest. When a simple game has Freya revealing her lack of experience when it comes to men Mac offers to become her tutor and teach her about all things physical and once that line is crossed their friendship is about to become very complicated.

Fun and flirty there is no denying that they are perfect for each other. She isn’t interested in him for his skills on the field and he sees her beauty even when she doesn’t see it herself. I received a complimentary copy of the audiobook and thought both narrators were excellent with the Scottish and English inflections.

Mac and Freya!

Blindsided was such an awesome story. This friends to lovers novel with its likable, relatable characters, hilarious banter, emotional moments and steamy scenes had me hooked from beginning to end, I enjoyed this story as Freya and Mac had me laughing and highly amused. I loved seeing the progression of their relationship and their story gave me all the feels. This was an enjoyable tale and I would highly recommend it to all lovers of friends to lovers romance.

This duet narration was absolute perfection. I loved Will and Charlotte's voices. They did an excellent job with the characters, with the accents, with the emotions. They had great pace and timing and really brought the story to life. It was an absolute pleasure listening to them narrate this novel.

I enjoyed it

I received a free copy of this book in return for an honest review.

I loved this book, it was classic Amy Daws. It had everything, humour, love, the crazy Harris family, & a perfect ending. I loved the accents of the narrators, I could listen to the guys voice all day long.

The story was easy to follow along with which I thought would be the hardest part for me since I get distracted and I did have to go back over some chapters since I listened while at work. I think listening to it on audiobook actually made it funnier because I don’t think The Sex would have been as funny in paper as it was listening to them say it haha.

I laughed out loud so many times throughout the book, my coworkers thought I was crazy. The never have I ever game was priceless. I really liked all the Heartland talk since I know how Heartland crazy that Amy is.

Overall this was a great read & I’d definitely give other audiobooks a shot after listening to this one!

I’m happy I made this book my first audiobook!
