Publisher's summary

Neil Josten is the newest addition to the Palmetto State University Exy team. He's short, he's fast, he's got a ton of potential - and he's the runaway son of the murderous crime lord known as the Butcher.

Signing a contract with the PSU Foxes is the last thing a guy like Neil should do. The team is high profile, and he doesn't need sports crews broadcasting pictures of his face around the nation. His lies will hold up only so long under this kind of scrutiny, and the truth will get him killed.

But Neil's not the only one with secrets on the team. One of Neil's new teammates is a friend from his old life, and Neil can't walk away from him a second time.

Neil has survived the last eight years by running. Maybe he's finally found someone and something worth fighting for.

Great Story, Bearable Narrator

This book is a wild ride and hits every genre. The characters are 3 dimensional and come off as real people who are ruled by their emotions. The story is deep and surprising, never seeming to dull. The narrator was a bit of a rollercoaster. He seemed to stumble over the voices in the beginning, making all the male characters indistinguishable in their gruffness. However, it improved as the book went on. The female characters had a similar problem when they were first introduced as well, although he never quite got out of the nasally prissy tone he used for all of them. Overall an amazing book with a bearable narrator. That could just be my bias though as this is one of my favorite book series. Definitely give it a try if you aren't or dont have time to actually read it.

👌💓

this book and the two that follow it are so well written. no matter how many times i read these books, nora never ceases to amaze me. she’s a great author. i cant wait to read elysium after i’ve finished the trilogy!

Dark Undertones with Broken Teammates

I really was not sure what to think about this book prior to reading, and I still am not sure what to think. I think my main takeaway is the character and world building were very good. I was definitely invested from the very beginning and still am. I do not feel the need to burn through the next two reads though, and think I will let this one settle a bit before going back. The thing about this book is there is a ton of dark undertones. Like there are not a lot of dark scenes, but the dark undertones are there in spades. Neil is a great character, he is strong, fierce, fearful but always stands up for what he believes is right. There were some problematic scenes in the book, but I think it went with the story as far as these broken boys go. And they are all broken in one way or another as well as the girls in the story as well, and really they are all adults, but they all had to grow up way to fast. Also, Coach Wymack is a great character and he was what this team needed. I love Alexander Cendese and thought he did a phenomenal job with this narration. Will definitely be finishing this series.

This is a perfect series!

It is very important to understand you cant listen to just one book, you have to listen to it all or you will not enjoy it. The story is dificult to read, rape, violance, drugs, alcohol, murder. It has to come with a trigger warning,i was not prepered.
This is one of the best stories I read,.

Andrew, haha.

I feel like Andrew is the main reason I’m stuck on this story. Something so fascinating about the fear a 5 foot blonde can instill in… well… everyone. Can’t wait for more!

complicated. SPOILERS

it is very strange to enjoy a book that contains actions I don't like (drug use and abuse, nonconsensual drug use, nonconsensual kissing I think for the purpose of drugging someone??), seriously flawed characters I didn't like and who made my skin crawl, other characters I wanted to slap, and a fairly disturbing story.
I am still asking myself how at the end of the book I feel I must give the book 4.5-5 stars.
didn't I enjoy the story, not particularly, but it was compelling.
I did want to know what was going to happen. I guessed wrong when it comes to the ending. I didn't stop listening.
as you can tell I'm still puzzled.
and I'm heading off to listen to book 2.
because I want to know what happens next.

my favorite series for well over 3 years now!

first time, I read all of the books in one day. love listening to the audio while doing anything.

The Foxhole Court is very good!

I liked the narrator's voice it's clear and nice. I love this book and It is great to have and audiobook since I don't have time to read too often! Thanks for this audiobook!

The narrator grew on me

On the first listen, the narrator bugged me a lot, but by the end of the series and relistening to the first book, I'd gotten used to him.

Amazing !!

great book, absolutely love the characters and Neil ! I've listened to this so many times, and i will be back again !
