Summary

Goalie [goh-lee]: (noun) A player in the goal whose duty is to prevent the ball from entering or crossing it

See Santos and Mariana DeGuajarado

As goalie of the Texas Mutiny, Santos is damn good at protecting that net. But he never bothered to protect his marriage. Letting the fame and notoriety go to his head, he lost the things he loved the most...his wife and kids. Now he has one shot to make it right before losing at this relationship game and he's determined not to miss this time. Mariana has been scarred so deeply by Santos's betrayals, she will carry the wounds forever. After almost ten years of marriage though, she knows him well, and she knows he won't let go without a fight. Still, she refuses to be a push over. Because love is never enough...

Cheater! Hmmm!

I'm not sure what to say about this book but that it is all about cheating, betrayal, repentance and forgiveness, so if cheating books aren't your jam, don't read this!

#Goalie is #3 in the #TexasMutinySeries by #MECarter and can be read as a standalone. In fact I'm pleased I didn't read the previous books, bearing in mind all the cheating Santos had been up to all these years. In this book Mariana finds out about it.

For me, personally, a betrayal of this magnitude would be unforgiveable. No matter what he did to try to redeem himself, I would always think in the back of my mind "a leopard never changes his spots" and I hate to say it but serial cheaters generally don't, so for this reason I couldn't get behind the premise of the story.

I loved Mari and the kids (5 years and under) and the delightful neighbor, Marcus. I also liked how she tried to protect her kids as best she could by keeping everything as normal as possible. Personally, I think she was a Saint and I ageed with her mother! Get as far away as possible! Having said this, she must have been as blind as a bat not recognising the signs of his cheating, having known him since 13!

So far as Santos was concerned, as a person I actually liked him a lot (even though he was a complete sex addict) and he really put the effort into becoming a better man and ultimately trying to gain Mari's forgiveness.

What I didn't like about the book was that it felt flat. It could have been so much more angsty, there was a large amount of unnecessary filler and the ending could have been so much more!

I object strongly when an author gives you an incomplete ending and expects the reader to buy #Megged the Epilogue! This left a nasty taste in my mouth and I won't bother reading any other books in the series.

I enjoyed the #dualnarration by #KirstenLeigh and #AlexanderCendese
