The epic finale of the Becker Brothers series. Each book can be read as a stand-alone. It's a man's world. When I declared sports medicine as my major and every man narrowed their eyes, that saying proved true. It was true when my ex-husband decided I'd give up my career when our daughter was born. And again when I divorced the Chief of Police in our small town, and he made it painfully clear that I could leave him, but I would never be free. Landing the job as the new athletic trainer for Stratford's high school team is my chance to start over. And walking into a male-dominated sport and staff, I'm ready for the challenge. I'm not ready for Jordan Becker. The head coach of our championship winning team is a Herculean force of nature--as severe as he is determined. His icy blue eyes and permanent scowl drive the women in this town mad, and his quiet power and undeniable command conjure respect from every man. When I join his team, I expect the doubt and anticipate the fight from him. And I get them both. I don't expect to form a friendship. And I never expect to fall for him. My breath catches when those cool eyes fall to my lips. My body comes alive when his is near. And as those lines begin to blur, every warning bell sounds. My job, my reputation are on the line. And my ex is around every corner, waiting to remind me of his power. It's a man's world, and if I want to survive, I can never fall in love with Jordan Becker. Even if he falls in love with me first.… (más)

What a great conclusion to this series. It was great to finally solve the mystery of what happened to the father. There was also another great twist in regards to Jordan in this story that I most assuredly didn't see coming. Strong story, amazing characters, and a message that love always prevails. ( )

"It turned out, our scarred hearts beat in the same rhythm. And without a word being exchanged, we both sighed because we knew that now, they'd never have to beat alone."


I really enjoyed this series, except [b:The Wrong Game|42379672|The Wrong Game|Kandi Steiner|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1539803644l/42379672._SY75_.jpg|64433272] this was my introduction to the author. I enjoyed this one, but not as much as the other books in the series. It felt like the romance was almost the secondary plot, while the mystery was at the core. And even if from a side it makes sense since this is the conclusion, it also didn't give me the feelings I hoped to feel.
I also think that the solution was pretty obvious but I didnt expect some twists so overall I was okay with it.
I really appreciate when important themes are being discussed in books, especially when they're done correctly and with respect.
It included so many topics: different kind of abuse, the corruption of people in power, being black and growing up in a white family, not being enough white or enough black. But also the disparity between men and women in the sport business (or really, anywhere else!)
I adore how this family went from being broken and hurt to finding justice, love and people to share everything with. I am a sucker for found families, so, yeah. 1000 points to slytherin for this!
Overall it was really a really nice and fun series, I absolutely recommend it to anyone who likes small town romances.

PS: Paige was the best part of the book, hands down!

I also wanted to shout out Kandi for her last note about diversity because it really warmed my heart and she's right and she should absolutely say it:

"Writing diversity is important to me. I believe we live in a beautiful and diverse world and that any chance I get to represent a culture different than my own is a privilege."
And then she went giving recommendations of WOC authors to check out! So huge huge appreciation for this. Kudos! ( )
