Kennedy Ryan presents book three in the Hoops series.

A deeply emotional, standalone romance set in the worlds of professional basketball and high fashion.

Divorced. Single dad. Traded to a losing squad.

Cheated on, betrayed, exposed. My perfect life blew up in my face, and I'm still picking up the pieces. The last thing I need is her.

A wildflower. A storm. A woman I can't resist.

Lotus DuPree is a kick to my gut and a wrench in my plans from the moment our eyes meet. I promised myself I wouldn't trust a woman again, but I've never wanted anyone the way I want Lo. She's not the plan I made, but she's the risk I have to take.

A warrior. A baller. The one they call Gladiator.

Kenan Ross charged into my life smelling all good, looking even better, and snatching my breath from the moment we met. The last thing I need is him. I’m working on me. Facing my pain and conquering my demons. I've seen what trusting a man gets you.

I. Don't. Have. Time. For. This.

But he just keeps coming for me. Keeps knocking down my defenses and stealing my excuses one by one. He never gives up, and now...I'm not sure I want him to.

Lotus Dupree is a free-spirited heart, just like her name, who is at a point in her life where she is figuring out her turmoil and trying to heal when the one man she is wholly attracted to storms into her life. Kenan Ross is an older basketball player, divorced and single dad who fell for Lotus at first sight and is ready to make his move.

Admittedly, at first, it was difficult to understand and believe the attraction that Kenan had for Lotus because they didn’t seem to have any commonality. However, as the story progressed you understood that Kenan was in many ways discovering who he was albeit being older. In a lot of ways there older snd kindred souls aligned and with that perspective, it made for a powerful and emotional story. Once again, Kennedy explored the depths of hurts and healing of different traumas. The focus on Kenan’s daughter Simone was such a precious and vital portion of the story, just as much as the relationship between Kenan & Lotus. This book also touches on the sacred rituals of voodoo and seers, which is prominent in the South. She provides beautiful realistic explanations and shows the power in the belief without seeming to force it on others. The love between Kenan and Lotus defied all odds showcasing the greatness of love. With that said, we must note there are a few trigger warnings. Child abuse, sexual assault, rituals, religion, divorce, suicide, and death. Please exercise caution and self-care when reading.

As an audiobook listen, the only caveat was the female narrator’s voice. It didn’t seem authentic to Lotus, and her portrayal of Kenan’s voice did not hit the mark. However, Jakobi Diem saved the day. His narration is always stellar and made this read an enjoyable experience.

Kennedy Ryan's writing is so captivating and heart filling. She's definitely on the top of my reading list.
I've loved each book in this series equally, yet they were all different and brought all the feels. The narrators in each book were also fantastic, each portraying the characters to the tee.

I read it first as an ebook. the audiobook was good. The female narrator's Latina accent was bad but it didn't bother me too much. it still helped to differentiate the characters when Lotus and her besties were talking.

Still great the second time around
