After the Game Volume 3

De: Abbi Glines

Narrado por: Jason Carpenter, Charlotte Penfield

The third book in the #1 New York Times bestselling Field Party series—a southern soap opera with football, cute boys, and pick-up trucks—from USA TODAY bestselling author Abbi Glines.

Two years ago, Riley Young fled from Lawton, Alabama. After accusing the oldest Lawton son, Rhett, of rape, everyone called her a liar and she had no option but to leave. Now she’s back, but she’s not at Lawton High finishing up her senior year. She’s at home raising the little girl that no one believed was Rhett’s.

Rhett is off at college living the life he was afraid he’d lose with Riley’s accusation, so Riley agrees to move back to Lawton so she and her parents could take care of her grandmother, who is suffering from Alzheimer’s. But the town still hasn’t forgotten their hate for her, and she hasn’t forgotten the way they turned on her when she needed them most.

When town golden boy Brady Higgens finds Riley and her daughter, Bryony, stranded on the side of the road in a storm, he pulls over and gives them a ride. Not because he cares about Riley, of course, but because of the kid.

But after the simple car ride, he begins to question everything he thought he knew. Could Brady believe Riley and risk losing everything?

Third time is a charm

I’m listening to the field party series in sequential order and I find each book gets better. So far, this has been my favorite in the series. I really appreciated the character growth in the arc of Brady and Riley is hands down the best female lead we’ve met in the series. It’s an easy listen with some heavy subject matter that I felt was weaved into the story in a realistic and delicate way.

Awesome

Wonderful story that felt real, I'm loving this series. The narrators did a good job for once.

third book

I was so excited to read this book because I loved the other two. It was so very different from the others but still an amazing read. I am crossing my fingers that the next book gives insight on how things worked out for them after just as the others have.

The 3rd installment is better than the 2nd, but...

This 3rd installment is better than the 2nd (Under the Lights), but nothing comes close to the initial novel, Until Friday Night. I guess the West - Maggie romance is just too damn hard to beat! However, we do find a deeper side of Brady in this book; i.e., he longs to be like his best friends and have the true strong connections to girls as they do.

Love this one

Oh Brady! I really loved that they didn't make Brady the typical jerk we expected from his first introduction and I loved the development of the story and his relationship with his parents and well as the development of the romance with Riley along with her character of being a mom and daughter etc I truly loved the relationship with her parents! The narrators do a fantastic job with this one.

The stories just keep getting better

I loved how Ms. Glines shook up Brody’s world, and how the example that Riley set when her world imploded helped Brody deal with his life. Jason Carpenter has a sexy voice.

soothing

Jason Carpenter has a very soothing voice...i love this series...i just started this book and im in love that quick....are their anymore books he has narrated?
as far as this story line, i love it...

Love this series!

I listened to this one on my road trip to meet my family for our annual trip to Branson on Memorial Day weekend. While it does tie in to the other books in the series, all of these do really work well as standalones. But because I had read/listened to the other two in the series, I knew Brady. And I have to say that I was sad he was so mean to Riley. But, like the good guy that Brady is, he soon figured out that maybe what he thought he knew was wrong, and that maybe Riley had been given a raw deal by their small town, even including his own rudeness to her. This story was a tear-jerker for reasons other than just Riley's dealing with what had happened to her that led to her being a single mom, as well as taking care of her grandmother with Alzheimer's. Brady is at a point where he has always known or thought that he knew that football would be his life. And sometimes things happen during your senior year that make you question what you thought you knew. That happens to Brady. Enough that I was crying for him. I hated how hard it hit him, but for someone who had grown up with basically the perfect life and family, I guess it makes sense he'd have that hard of a time with it. Then, after having listened to the 2nd book, I had a feeling that Gunner's thoughts on Riley might not be the same as everyone assumed they would be. Brady's cousin Maggie, was the perfect friend for Riley, and I kept waiting for that to happen, and when it did, I was thrilled. Another great book in this series, and I don't know if there will be more, but there were more guys on that football team I'd like to follow. Maybe into a college age/new adult series?

Brady.....

Brady character has been one character we have seen over the last 2 books of the field party series. and i love him from the very first book. this book broke my heart and made me happy in the end.

C'mon

I hate the way Boone was portrayed in this book. Dont like it one bit.
