About this listen

Last year, defensive end Deacon Harris witnessed the very worst of the Charleston Condors.

After everything he and the team went through, he promised himself he'd walk away from football. But before he can retire, the team is sold to the last person he ever expected to see again.

Deacon stays because the Condors are going into major rebuilding mode. New owner. New coach. New players. New rules.

But one rule hasn't changed: don't fall in love with the owner of your football team.

Grant might be brilliant and a billionaire, but Deacon only remembers Grant as his tutor in college—and as the one who got away.

In all his dreams about reconnecting, he never imagined that Grant would end up as his boss. Both his downfall, and also his salvation. Or that they'd be forced into confronting the Condors' most difficult challenge yet—but that they'd face it together, hand in hand, tackling their critics and proving once and for all that love doesn't take sides.

Great ending to the series, I really enjoyed it and loved the romance. The narrator was wonderful.

Lovely

The Play is the fourth and final book in the Charleston Condors series and could be read as standalone, however, Grant and Deacon’s relationship was hinted at several times throughout the series.

I have been desperate for Grant and Deacon’s story since they first appeared on page. Their chemistry and connection has been electric since day one. Not only is team owner/ player completely forbidden but also a trope, despite me being an avid reader of sports romance, I have never read.

I loved that we started from the beginning when Grant was Deacon’s tutor before Deacon went to the NFL and Grant became a billionaire. Skip forward twelve years, we see Grant buying the Condors and little snippets of what’s been happening during the season until we get to present day (after Carter’s book and Jem’s book).

Grant and Deacon’s chemistry was scorching...blazing... incendiary! These two make dirty talking an art and I am here for it. How these two are so protective of one another, how much they know one another so well makes me speechless.

The Play is another sizzling hot MM sports romance that has all the classic Bolden magic of delicious steamy times, fun and heartfelt sweet moments that will leave you swooning over Deacon and Grant.

The best series finale I have ever read! What a roller coaster ride! There is nothing else to say except read this book! Also the SHOCK I felt in the bonus scene 🤯!
