Reckless Love

A Small Town, Single Dad, Sports Romance (The Single Dad Playbook, Book 3)

By: Willow Aster

Narrated by: Sean Crisden, Angelina Rocca

A sexy small-town, single dad, friends-to-lovers romance by USA Today bestselling author, Willow Aster

I fell in love with Rhodes Archer the night we met thirteen years ago.

We made a pact that night to never cross the just-friends zone.

However, Rhodes crossed that line by kissing me recently, and I can’t get over it.

I’ve loved him, ached for him, craved him for years, but I've never wanted to ruin what we have.

And now, when I’m a cheerleader for the Colorado Mustangs and he’s their superstar tight end, we’re not even supposed to be in the same room, let alone be together.

But, he is everything to me.

And that includes my godson, Rhodes’ adorable three-year-old son, Levi, who I love as my own.

It’s impossible to stay away from each other. And I don’t want to when I can still feel his lips on mine and the lingering touches between us.

The lines have blurred, and rules are being broken…

I just hope we aren’t being too reckless and break each other’s hearts in the process.

Reckless Love is book three in The Single Dad Playbook series. Each book can be listened to as a standalone.

Great story!!!

I absolutely loved the third book in The Single Dad Playbook! Rhodes and Elle's journey was everything I hoped for and more. Their chemistry, their struggles, and their love story were so beautifully written. This series has truly become one of my all-time favorites, and I’m so thrilled they finally found their way to each other. Such a perfect pairing! 💜💙

Loved how Rhodes loved Ellie.

This was a sweet friend’s to lovers romance. It’s also small town and sports romance. I enjoyed Rhodes and Ellie. Loved their relationship. Loved how close the bond was. There was a lot of pining. Also loved the part Levi played in the story. I loved how Rhodes parents were there to help him whenever needed. I very much disliked Ellie’s parents. I did enjoy how Ellie stood up for herself. Loved Ellie’s secret identity. Love the single dad’s playbook and the role it played in the story.

It’s Always Been You

Reckless Love is the third book in the Single Dad Playbook series. This is a small town, sports romance, friends to lover, single dad romance. Rhodes and Elle have been best friends for 13 years. Elle is a cheerleader, a secretly successful romance author, and a daughter of a pastor. Rhodes is a football player who pined for Elle since they first met in college, but Elle kept them in the friend zone as she didn’t want to loose him as a best friend. Both had the mentality of “it’s always been you, only you”.

The timeline of the story was a past/present duel timeline, which was confusing at times. There was other woman/other man drama as their exes couldn’t take a hint. They longed for each other, but nothing really happened until she had to move in with him due to a creeper. Once they got together, that was it. There was no third act break up. The friend group still felt like a family in this installment of the series. I enjoyed the audiobook. Angelina Rocca and Sean Crisden did a phenomenal job with the dual narration. The book was a good time!

Love this series so far

Another enjoyable read/listen from this author. This is just such a sweet series overall & I can’t wait to grab the next book. :)

The narrators did a lovely job bringing this one to life.
