About this listen

As if things aren’t already tough enough as the only girl on a college football team, Coach had to go and assign Zeke Collins as my roommate.

A cocky kick returner and my brother’s best friend who should have been ripped of that title years ago, he’s as infuriating as he is undeniably sexy.

I hate him, and for good reason—reason I won’t ever let him forget.

He thinks because we grew up together that it’s his role to protect me, but all he does is get in my way, make me look weak, and piss me off more.

I tell him I can handle myself, and I’m hell-bent on getting that point across to him and the rest of the nation watching the only girl in collegiate football.

The pressure doesn’t get to me. The scrutiny? I’m ready for.

But sharing very thin walls with Zeke Collins? I wasn’t prepared for that.

And the more we’re forced together, the harder it is to distinguish that pencil-thin line between hating him...and wanting him.

Fair Catch is a well-written and perfectly narrated romance. I love how Riley and Zig are human; flawed. I love how they interact, make me laugh and get all hot from the spicy scenes.
Kandi Steiner did it again. Great romance. Perfect summer-read☀️

Just what I needed!

Fair Catch is the complete standalone enemies to lovers, brother’s best friend, forced proximity, sports romance story of Riley Novo and Zeke Collins.
Riley has known Zeke since they were kids and up until and accident which paralysed her twin brother Gavin and ended his promising football career she was infatuated with Zeke. However, since that fateful night she has treated him with nothing but disdain and playing on the same high school football team didn’t help the relationship. Fast forward to college and Riley is forced to spend more time with Zeke as not only are they teammates but also roommates.
Zeke is a truly misunderstood guy. The girl he’s had a crush on since he was a kid despises him and he can’t blame her, he was after all driving the vehicle that crashed and paralysed her twin brother and changed her life. Riley was a very accomplished soccer player until the accident when Gavin made her promise to take his place on the football team. When they both make the collegiate team and are forced to share a dorm, Zeke eventually manages to start breaking down her walls to form a friendship with her and the desire and sexual tension builds until they both finally give in to their feelings. Ummm hello super sexy shower steamy times.
This audiobook is narrated by Hannah Chiclana and new to me narrator Chris Williams. Hannah’s portrayal of the only female football player was superb. She conveyed the internal battle Riley had about Zeke perfectly. Chris’ performance was fantastic. He perfectly captured Zeke’s regret, his need for forgiveness and his wants, needs and desires. I loved this pairing and I’m looking forward to more from them.
I really loved this audiobook, it had all the tropes I love, a kickass heroine who takes on a predominantly male sport and f**king rocks at it, a hero with demons he must overcome, undeniable chemistry and plenty of banter with a side of angst, emotion, and a whole lot of steam!
I hope Kandi brings us Gavin’s story in the future, I loved the glimpses we got of him.

A perfect enemies to lovers-sports romance

Very unique

4.75 ⭐ This was fantastic. It was kind of a twist on the classic brothers best friend trope and I just know how much the author loves the sport of football because they don't gloss over it and I love that. Despite how much Riley dislikes Zeke (with good reason, honestly) their chemistry burns up the pages and the fact that they are college football teammates...love that! Are the characters in this perfect? Far from it, but they own up to their mistakes and that's human. This book blew me away and I couldn't put it down, honestly. I volunteered to listen and review a complimentary copy of this. All opinions are my own.

I enjoyed this book immensely, it is an amazing story, a combination of several tropes, enemies to lovers, brothers best friend, sports romance, and Kandi Steiner mastered them all. The story grabbed my attention right from the start and captivated it straight to the end. The characters are realistic, easy to relate to and connect with, they are easy to care about too. I adored the two lead characters, Riley Novo and Zeke Collins, Riley’s twin brother Gavin and Zeke are best of friends. But to put it mildly, Riley is not a fan of Zeke and does not think her brother should be still be friends with him. Riley is doing something her brother couldn’t do, she is playing college football and made on the division one team. The same college and team as Zeke and, to add insult to injury, they will be roommates. It is difficult for her to forget or forgive him for what he did, but the anger and hatred for him wanes, and she sees him in a different light and they realize they can help each other. A friend with benefits relationship develops and morphs in to more, they have a good grip on juggling their schedule, practice, playing, studying and classes, with some steamy trysts in between. All is going well, but then a bomb gets dropped on them and Riley feels betrayed again. My heart broke for these two, but I never gave up on them, rooted for them both on and off the field. This story is beautifully written and plotted with plenty of drama, heartfelt emotions, some angst and romance to be remembered. Kandi Steiner, thank you for this wonderful story and emotional rollercoaster ride.

🎧📚🎧 And for the wonderful narration, Kandi Steiner cast the perfect narrators to bring her characters and story to life. Hannah Chiclana and Chris Williams are talented narrators and versatile voice artists. They had a complete understanding of the characters they portrayed, gave each a voice that suited that character’s persona and was believable in every role they played. Chiclana’s Riley was spot on, she grasped all her strengths and played her as the perfect badass that she was. Williams did the same for Zeke, grasped all sides of his personality. You could hear how much heart and feelings they put into their work as they captured the character’s emotions and projected them into their performance and have you feeling every single one. These entertaining storytellers are a pleasure to listen to and their narration enhances an already fantastic story to another level. Thank you for this great listen!

Kandi never fails to write stories that bring all the feels! The buildup between Zeke and Riley was palpable and brought out every feeling along the way. That whole thin line between love and hate made the chemistry between these two burn through your headphones. Kandi writing a young woman being part of a man's football team made the story just shine! I loved, loved, loved the concept of this book. I lived for every scene and could not get enough of listening to what everyone had to go through and the adrenaline that comes with playing each football game. Zeke was a powerhouse and had me just swooning over his possessiveness of Riley. Their history may have torn them apart, but it's what glued them together as well and it was so real and raw. Kandi never shies away from making your heart hurt with real life issues and it makes her books that much better! The narrators, Hannah Chiclana and Chris Williams stole the show! Their narrations were perfect and I loved every minute of listening to this audiobook!

What an amazing story!
