Publisher's summary

From best-selling author L A Cotton, comes an opposites-attract sports romance. Angst...drama...friendship...and football. Will you survive senior year?

Lily Ford has always been a wallflower.

But it’s senior year, and she wants nothing more than to try and push her boundaries and embrace the last year of high school.

Kaiden Thatcher has always been the star on the football field.

But now he finds himself in enemy territory forced to prove himself to his new coach and teammates.

It starts with a dare. Seven minutes of heaven in a boat shed. But it quickly turns into something neither of them saw coming.

He’s everything she should resist.
She’s everything he shouldn’t want.
But neither of them are willing to walk away because together, their demons seem that little bit easier to silence.

There’s just one problem.... Lily is the coach’s daughter.

And 100 percent off-limits.

Huge Rixon Series Fan - but this female narrator….

I very rarely write actual reviews but I’m partly through this book and I am going to finish it because I love the story line & series, but this narrator is hard to listen to. I knew she wasn’t my favorite but I wanted to listen to it so badly.
But ya, this narrator has a very whimper-y voice. It reminds me of Disney princesses…or any princess movie. Very “oOh My GoOdNeSs - I cAnT bElIeVe ThIs!”…which isn’t bad but I wouldn’t want to listen to a whole book like that. For such a great series, I would’ve been so much happier if it was a different female narrator

Lily & Kaiden

I loved Lily and Kaiden’s story. It was filled with so much angst and so much will they or won’t they. It was sweet to see Lily come out of her shell around Kaiden. He definitely helped her become comfortable with herself. I haven’t read the parents' stories yet but I can tell there is a lot of history between these families. You can tell that even though Kaiden knows he should stay away from the coach’s daughter, there is a pull that just won’t allow him to stay away.

The audio was great, the narrators were new to me but they felt like someone I have been listening to forever. It was an easy enjoyable listen and the narrators did a great job carrying emotions.

Lily and Caden…. They’re so good!

When the rival high school loses their school building before the start of the school year Rixon high gets some of their students, including Caden Thatcher their football QB.

Caden just wants to play football. He’s good, better than Rixons QB, and want to prove himself. He’s not sure he’ll get the chance because of the history between the coach at Rixon and his fathers past. When he meets Lily, the shy, almost mousy young woman, he is attracted immediately. When he finds out she is Coach Fords daughter, he balks…. And he hurts her by telling her he can’t be with her. Football is his ticket out and he can’t jeopardize that.

Lily was bullied by girls when she was younger, and it has left deep scars on her psyche. Caden learns about them and wants to help her… but when he turned away from her because of who she was… he hurt her.

Caden cokes to realize what most important to him… but when he is blackmailed into taking someone else to homecoming…. Things take an awful turn.

LA Cotton is one of the best writers I’ve read. Her ability to make you feel exactly what her characters are feeling is one that will keep me reading her books! Loved this one…. And I really love Caden and Lily.

Fantastic Story & Narration🎧Gripping & Heartfelt!

It is great to be back in L.A. Cotton’s “Rixon” again, I was happy to hear there would be more “Rixon Raiders” novels with characters from the second generation. And the best way to start the series is with Jason Ford’s daughter and Lewis Thatcher’s son as the lead characters, the two were rivals back in the day and not just in football, Thatcher was from Rixon East and Ford from Rixon High. With Rixon East HS burned down all the students needed to transfer to other schools, Kaiden Thatcher, the Eagles star quarterback chose to go to Rixon High despite knowing they already had a QB and that the coach, Jason Ford and his father were rivals. Caiden’s dad was a bully back in his day but he is nothing like his father, he does not get along with his father who is an abusive drunk. It is kind of tough transferring to a new school for senior year but Kaiden has one goal to catch an eye of a scout and get a scholarship for college, far away in Alabama, one of the top colleges for football. Lily Ford likes to keep to herself and stay in the background, she has a wonderful family life, great mom and dad, sister and best friend Peyton. Trauma in her past damaged her, she suffers from anxiety and has other issues. She does well most of the time but certain situations trigger her anxiety, certain people too, like one of the mean girls in school, Lindsey who has bullied her in the past. Caiden and friends are not welcomed on the team, even the coach put him in the second line, when he first gets his time on the field the others shun him. Girls are interested in him because he is a football player, he has Lindsey going after him too, but he only has eyes for one girl, the girl in the shadows, Lily. I loved these two together from the moment they met, they both really saw each other for who they were and got each other too. But when Caiden found out she was the coaches daughter she became off limits to him. The chemistry between them is undeniable and it was only a matter of time before he gave in again. Caiden catches a break with the team, not in the way he wanted it but he does get to play and shine for scouts to see him. These two faced a lot of challenges, some their own some from others. Caiden had a good head on his shoulders and a big heart, his patience with Lily was impressive, so was how much she grew into her own by the end. I loved how everything played out in this book, the story is beautifully plotted with plenty of drama, angst, heartfelt and emotional moments and a wonderful slow burn romance. L.A. Cotton, thank you for another awesome story and emotional rollercoaster ride.

🎧📚🎧 And for the fabulous narration, Meghan Kelly and Matthew Maddux are talented narrators and versatile voice artists. They bring the characters to life, humanize them, give each their own distinct voice and personality, as well as heart and attitude. Their portrayal of each character was spot on, they took each role and made it their own sounding believable and just as I pictured them to sound. Meghan Kelly’s played Lily’s role with perfection and Matthew Maddux did the same for Caiden. Both are great performing the roles of the secondary characters as well. They set the perfect tone for the story, capture all of the characters emotions and project them into their performance. They are entertaining storytellers and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for the awesome listen🎧

Kaiden ❤️

Off-Limits audiobook narrated by Meghan and Matthew is amazing. I absolutely adored Kaiden and Lily. They fit each other perfectly and I couldn’t get enough of them. Their chemistry is epic and seeing Jason as a dad is the best. I love this series and I can’t wait to listen to the next book in The Rixon High series.
