From the New York Times bestselling author of Tapping the Billionaire comes a hilarious and sexy standalone about fate, chance, and one heck of an epically awkward meet-cute.
4th & Girl, an all-new standalone romantic comedy in the Mavericks Tackle Love series from Max Monroe, is available now!
I’m Leo Landry, one of the best shutdown cornerbacks in the nation, and the New York Mavericks’ first round draft pick.
If James Bond spent his days running drills and his nights shutting out quarterbacks, he’d dream about being me. But professional football is on a whole other level from college, and as the new guy, I’ve got everything to prove.
No problem.
All I’ve got to do is focus, right?
Too bad life’s got other plans.
Blond hair, long lashes, and criminal blue eyes, there’s a pint-sized bombshell that I can’t stop thinking about.
I don’t even know her name, but she’s completely screwing up my game plan.
It’s too late to turn back now though. I have my eye on the prize, and I won’t settle for anything less.
4th down and only one goal in my sights—this pretty little mystery girl.
Good thing I’m at my best when the pressure’s on.
Review:
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars
4th & Girl was a fun book to read. I laughed in some moments and overall I was loving the book turning page after page. I would have given 5 stars and a nomination for my top books of 2018 if two things hadn't happened and soured my mood. The major one really ruins my good thoughts for the book when I think about the story in general. Leo was pushing Gemma to perform with an audience and she was refusing to do so, but without practically explaining her feelings to him in a way that would make Leo and I understand her side. I normally wouldn't have liked the way he was pushing her to do something, but I felt like Gemma was meant to do that work and so, I let it pass. Another thing that was less major, but I still didn't like was the time it took for our characters to see each other again after their initial meeting. 1/3 of the book passed and I was not happy with that. These two were the reasons I decided not to go with the 5 stars. Otherwise, I could say that the book was great and it has many LOL moments. The writing was good and the book was light and breezy. I am happy with the way most things turned out and that's why I would recommend it.

Excerpt:
In my opinion, in football, there isn’t a more badass position than shutdown cornerback. What makes my position so badass? Well, I have to be agile and quick and have a natural instinct for the game. My footwork has to be on point, and my speed has to be unmatched. I have to cover, read, adjust, and break on the ball. This position, my position, is one of the biggest anchors of pass defense plays. What does all of that football lingo mean? It means I’m vital. It means I’m the guy who will stop a quarterback’s touchdown pass. I’m the man who won’t let the best wide receivers in the league get their greedy hands on the ball. Last year, my college record was nearly unheard of. I held opposing QBs to a 47.9 rating when they tried to throw the ball to the man I was covering. Basically, I was the badass in one of the toughest positions in the league. And now, as one of the newest first-round draft picks for the New York Mavericks, I’m the guy with everything to prove. I can either be the big hero, or I can be the guy who loses the fucking game. My reputation is on the line, my nearly flawless career in college taunting me in the background to live up to it, and if there’s one thing I need to do, it’s focus. But life’s got other plans. I should have my mind on my money—and my money on my mind—but the only thing I can seem to think of these days is the mystery girl I met at one of the team’s very first group activities. Blond hair. Long lashes. Criminally blue eyes. She’s petite and awkward, and she’s completely fucking up the plan. But it’s too late to second-guess. And it’s sure as fuck too late to go back. Once my mind is fixated on something, there’s no stopping me. I have my eye on the bombshell prize, and I won’t settle for anything less than victory. Good thing I’m at my best when the pressure’s on.
