Sacked

Gridiron Series #1

By: Jen Frederick

Narrated by: Marc Bachmann, Shirl Rae

Knox Masters knows what he wants, and he gets it. All-American football player? Check. NFL pros scouting him? Check. Now he's set his sight on two things: the national title and Ellie Campbell. Sure, she's the sister of his teammate, but that's not going to stop him. Especially not when he's convinced that Ellie is the one.

But Ellie isn't as sure. She's trying to start a new life, and she's not interested in a relationship...with anyone. Besides, it's not just her cardinal rule of never dating her brother's teammates that keeps her away; Ellie has a dark secret that would jeopardize everything Knox is pursuing.

3.5 Stars

The audio really ruined this for me. The male narrator reminded me of a bad actor playing a criminal in black and white films. I don’t know how else to explain it!
I did enjoy the chemistry between our MCs and found it to be believable, even if the reason behind our H being a virgin wasn’t (but this is contemporary romance, so who cares)? Zero stars for Ellie’s parents, who were just the worst.

Male voice did not depict part

The story was fine but the voices were too staged. The male voice needed to soften his impeccable articulation to sound more like a football player. He didn't read the Warriors record correctly.

very good

Loved it !! this story. the narrator is so fantastic it's like your really there!! After listening to this story,. I totally enjoyed reading this book. It’s well written and the characters were uniquely fantastic. I would suggest this book to my friends that like this sort of genera. this was a good book. The narrator was great.

Too Kelsey Grammer

The story was enjoyable. The female narration worked. The male narrator reminded me of Kelsey Grammer. Didn't at all like the voice of a college age guy imo.

4 Sacked Stars

Knox and Ellie,
Hmm I give this a 4 star rating because I like the story line and it was over all good.

I just wanted to know more about Knox, we get a pretty good picture of Ellie and her life and background. But for me I just feel like we skimmed over Knox.

I loved the interactions with the team there were some pretty funny things.
I even loved the interaction with Ellie and her brother even if he was a little naive about his grades. Did he not suspect at all really??

I just all around like this book I will probably re read it I liked it so much maybe I will get past my hang up of not knowing all there is to know about Knox lol we will see.
Also this swoon!
