The Wrong Catch: A Football Romance

The Wrong Player Series, Book 3

By: C.R. Jane

Narrated by: Lucas Webley, Alexis Paige

A football star gets tackled by an obsessed lover in the USA Today-bestselling author's dark romance follow-up to The Wrong Quarterback and The Wrong Play.

Ophelia knows better than to obsess over a man she's never met, but the moment she sees him, everything shifts into focus. Matty Adler is the University of Tennessee's golden boy: star tight end, campus legend, and the center of Ophelia's every waking thought. She knows her troubled past reads like a cautionary tale, but when she looks at Matty, it doesn't feel like infatuation; it feels like clarity. And before she can talk herself out of it, she's applying to the same school, convinced that starting over means being close to him, even if it'll cost her everything.

Matty's grown used to the spotlight by now. His very existence on campus seems to attract swarms of onlookers―including a stalker whose steady presence has almost started to feel like a comfort to him. But when he catches sight of Ophelia for the first time, being with anyone else becomes impossible, and he vows to do whatever it takes to make her his.

As the two are ensnared in an all-consuming romance, Ophelia can't believe her fantasies are actually coming true. Matty's the one person who can make her forget about the chaos that's dictated her life thus far. But secrets have a way of resurfacing, and the truth threatens to run interference on their happily-ever-after. On the other hand, maybe their dark urges and mutual obsession are exactly what both of them need. After all, a love like theirs doesn't play fair . . .

The Wrong Catch is a dark college football romance that contains scenes of stalking and manipulation. It is intended for adult listeners. Narrated in duet style.

such a great book

this book and the first book were my favorites. this was my second favorite of the series. i loved these characters. the boys are always so fun but them meeting their women are so sweet. the unhinged obsession these men have with their women. the best. in this book, the fmc is also unhinged and obsessed. now there will be a 4th book. amazing. overall, you should listen to this book.

Great story! Refreshing to have female stalker!

The story was great. I loved Ophelia instantly and just wanted Matty to find her and hug her. The voices are good but the man’s is just too old and deep for Mattys character, it didn’t seem to fit right. But he is a very good narrator so it still worked.

Storyline

I love the adult content. I love the storyline and the readers. I don’t like it when I write a review. It has to be 15 words or less. Any words would be better than none this stupid

Worth It

There was some repeating descriptions but the story was good. First one was the best one but still happy to get Matty's story. Great duet narration.

MATTY

Oh Matty! You’re so so perfect it hurts! C.R. Jane delivers yet again and I’m in love. I don’t understand how these books keep getting better and better. I’m so here for it! I’m listening to this book again and again.

Also, the male narrator? Yummy and yes!
