Audiobook Review: By a Thread by Lucy Score.When Real Life Gets in the Way of Blogging.*Īmazon | B&N | Books A Million | Google Play | iBooks | Kobo * I voluntarily read an early copy of this book. I will definitely be reading more of her work. I’m so glad I took a chance on this author. If you take the colorful characters and add swoonworthy romance, football, and plenty of lighthearted humor, you have a delightful story that is a quick read.

Marlee’s douche of an ex gives the reader even more reason to be #TeamMarlee. Marlee’s take no prisoners attitude creates a fun battle of wits with the leader of the group. The catty members of the WAGS club-Wives and Girlfriend (no “s” at the end as Marlee is made all too aware) of the football players-are a huge source of humor. I would normally say the drama is unnecessary however, in this case it allows the characters to grow, so it gets a pass from me. There’s some irritatingly clueless behavior on his part, but I certainly wouldn’t kick him out of bed for eating crackers. He always has Marlee’s back and is pretty much perfect. Gavin is the dreamy new hotshot NFL Quarterback.

I got a kick out of all the humorous hashtags peppered throughout the story that Marlee makes up to describe her life.

I appreciated how she fully recognizes her shortcomings. I fell in love with Marlee! I loved her snarkiness, wit, integrity, and strength. But when the gossip makes Marlee public enemy number one, she worries about more than just her reputation.īetween their own fumbles and the wicked wives, it will take a Hail Mary for Marlee and Gavin's relationship to survive the season.Ĭolor me impressed!

The team's wives, who never led the welcome wagon, are not happy with Marlee's return. Unfortunately, not everyone is ready to let her escape her past. Gavin fights to show Marlee he's nothing like her ex. There's just one problem: Gavin Pope, the new hotshot quarterback and a fling from the past, has Marlee in his sights. But when she discovers he has been tackling other women on the sly, she vows to never date an athlete again. She's definitely had enough practice by dating her NFL-star boyfriend for the last ten years. But there's a new player on the horizon, and he's in a league of his own.
