Critics Review
Praise for Fumbled and Alexa Martin:
“I wish I could jump into the Fumbled world and hang out on the couch and drink wine and gossip with Poppy and her friends!“—Jasmine Guillory, New York Times bestselling author
“Get ready for sparks to fly…“—PopSugar
“Sports romances often use the sport as a fun setting to give the hero wealth and a perfect body, but Fumbled takes things a step further. Martin takes a hot-button contemporary issue and tackles it with emotion and verve, making it the perfect obstacle in the relationship — the resolution of which only makes the happily-ever-after expertly bittersweet and all the more earned.“—Entertainment Weekly
“An emotional journey with an intoxicating romance.”—NPR
“Martin expertly captures the struggle between the need for a quiet, ordinary life and the demands of an all-star career path that invites gossip, grudges, and jealousy. In this delicious follow-up to Intercepted (2016), Martin once again draws on her own experience as an NFL wife to create a winning sports romance.”—Booklist (starred review)
“Readers will laugh, swoon, and grow to love every character in this entertaining contemporary romance.”—Publishers Weekly
“A hardworking single mom comes face to face with the gorgeous star athlete who got away in the second installment of a football romance series by a fresh-voiced newcomer to the genre… Poppy leaps off the page as a contemporary biracial woman navigating dating, motherhood, and career with seriousness and a fantastic sense of humor.”—Kirkus Reviews
“Funny, touching, and sparking with power.“—Amazon Book Review
