Story
Demi Crawford was Magnolia Falls royalty. I was the boxer from the wrong side of the tracks. She was the epitome of everything good, while I was broody and rebellious. We couldn’t be more different. Her family was enemy number one which made her guilty by association. I despised her before I even knew her. It was easier that way. But now she’d moved in next door to me, and she was everywhere I turned. I couldn’t avoid her no matter how hard I tried. She was beautiful and honest and sweet. Everything I knew I shouldn’t want. Shouldn’t need.

Story
Five hockey players, a cabin in the woods...and little old me, Winnie Berlin. Sounds like the start of a fantasy, right? But it's not. It's my reality. It all started when I got lost in the middle of the Canadian Rockies. A wicked thunderstorm sent my car mud sliding into a ditch, and for a girl whose survival skills involve finding the nearest Starbucks, I was in deep trouble. Forced to abandon my car in search of help, I stumbled upon a cabin in the middle of nowhere.

Story
Keeping things professional with my employees has never been an issue. Until she waltzed onto my property. Billie is talented. She's mouthy. And she's so damn tempting. I can't stop thinking about all the ways I could take her down a peg. I can't stop thinking about her, period. We clash from the moment we meet. And in a small town, on an even smaller farm, it's hard to keep your distance. It's even harder to keep that friction from turning to fire. But keeping my distance? That might be the biggest struggle of all.

Dancing on bar tops means the night is going great. Exiting the bar hauled over the shoulder of Heston University's infamous hockey captain? Not my idea of a good time. But my would-be knight would have to do. I needed an escape route from my brother… his biggest rival. Easton Blake is the perfect reminder of why I avoid hockey players. Cocky. Frustratingly sexy. Accustomed to every girl in his orbit falling for his charm. With his sultry smile that tells me he knows all the ways to make girls come undone with his touch, I'm almost the next score on his stats.

Pro football might see me as their favorite underdog, but Madison Westfield would rather see me six feet under. My ex-best friend’s little sister has every reason to hate me. I took her boyfriend’s spot on this team, her brother might lose his too, and our short-lived engagement years ago is part of the reason our families are locked in a grudge match that has the whole league on edge. Ruining me would fix most of her problems, but she's stuck trying to work a PR miracle with my career instead.

Macon Davis. My best friend’s brother. My tormentor. My least favorite person. Pothead. Delinquent. A careless, directionless loser. That’s what I used to believe, but I didn’t really know him. And when I finally saw him, it was the best and worst thing to ever happen to me. We burned hot and fast. Passion. Anger. Love. Pain. We were reckless. Naive. We were doomed from the start. When I finally saw Macon Davis for who he was, we both went down in the flames.

He's the hottest man I've ever seen, someone I can't forget. So it hurts when I find out I've slept with the enemy. As a list maker and a rule follower, the last thing I planned on one of the worst days of my life was to fall into bed with a guy who literally charmed the clothes right off of me. With him, I felt safe to lay my sadness down for the night and embrace a stranger. Little did I know, that hot, gorgeous man would be Jamison Ledger, the one who has taken everything I've ever wanted—my legacy, my happiness, and what I've worked my whole life to attain.

The scowl should’ve been my first clue to stay far away from Anson Hunt. The sexy smirk and the fact that he’s my brother’s best friend? Reasons two and three. Not to mention, he’s the new contractor working on my house. He’s everything I’m not: grumpy, rude, and more than a little attached to his solitude. It doesn’t matter how many times I try to kill him with kindness; the man simply won’t crack. Until he sees me shatter. Because when my world comes crashing down around me, Anson is the one catching me as I fall.

Story
Demi Crawford was Magnolia Falls royalty. I was the boxer from the wrong side of the tracks. She was the epitome of everything good, while I was broody and rebellious. We couldn’t be more different. Her family was enemy number one which made her guilty by association. I despised her before I even knew her. It was easier that way. But now she’d moved in next door to me, and she was everywhere I turned. I couldn’t avoid her no matter how hard I tried. She was beautiful and honest and sweet. Everything I knew I shouldn’t want. Shouldn’t need.

I’d been in Curmudgeon Bakery for one of those lemon baby-Bundt cakes I’d been craving since I found out I was pregnant. The draw had nothing to do with the baker himself. Tall, tatted, and edgy, he looked more like a biker than a man who makes baked goods. I hardly knew him other than taking a tumble in a rainstorm in front of his shop... and then tossing myself at him after he rescued me. We shared a moment, but it’s not what you’d think. Months later, he delivered my baby among his cookies and cakes. Talk about a second chance encounter.

Nathan Davenport, CEO of the Davenport empire, is my complete opposite. He hates chocolate. I'm a size sixteen dessert chef. He only wears black. I love glitter and pink. He's grumpy, while I look on the brighter side of life. Too bad his piercing eyes, and high cheekbones, haunt my dreams. When he offers to loan me the money to save my bakery, I have no choice but to agree.

"Promise me you'll love me after this?" Those were the words I asked my first love on a high school date. "Always, Vi," he told me before crushing his lips against mine. I gave him a part of me I can never get back that night. Even worse, I gave him my heart. That was four years ago. Back when I was young and naive. Back when I thought we’d always be together.

Protect Kyle at all costs
Protect Kyle at all costs!!
False start is a second chance romance with Kyle Robbins, now a professional NFL player and Madelyn James (Hearst) a real estate agent, each other’s first love from High School and a past that suddenly tore them apart. After years of no communication, Madelyn Is now Kyle’s real estate agent. Reading about Kyle and Madelyn coming back into each other’s lives was so emotional, Madelyn was now a single mother going thru a divorce and when Kyle and Madelyn see each other again the tension is real. They are both hurt and yet care so deeply for one another and still appreciate the friendship they had in the past. I loved how all though major miss-communication tore them apart, communication brought them back together. They were able to be there for one another in so many ways, with her son, with his friends, they had real talks, real emotions and you could feel how much they cared for one another. As the book goes on the story gets sweeter. Kyle is seriously so caring and the strength Madelyn shows during her dark days is admirable. This book has so much going on and all of it was wrote so well, with a bit of
fake dating for a second chance at forever, a survivor single mom with a nightmare of an ex, an NFL player with amazing friends, a surprise pregnancy and that extra bit of spice that makes you feel all the things!

KYLE, MADS & SEB 🤭🖤
✨✨ALL HAIL QUEEN KANDI✨✨
I say this with every single kandi review and I’ll say it again…. KANDI DID THE DANG THING. This book right here is why Kandi Steiner is my favorite author OF ALL TIME. How did she go from making me so annoyed from season 1 Kyle aka fair catch to being my absolute favorite red zone rival man!?!?! Holy smokes. What a redemption arc for my man!!! Kyle was not hated by me by any means, he was just an annoying side character in the beginning and he grew in my heart as the books moved on. By Hail Mary I was so sad we weren’t getting a Kyle book because I had loved him at that point, then Kandi surprised us worth this gem.
This book holds such a special place in my heart. It was such a perfect ending. These narrators were absolutely amazing. I wouldn’t have pictured mads and Kyle any other way. Kandi had me so emotional throughout, and the narrators brought it to life perfectly, they had me crying both happy and sad tears. I did not want it to end!!! Thank you Kandi for giving us Kyle’s book, this is truly the perfect ending to this series. 🖤
Tropes:
- sports romance
-first love / second chance
- single mom
- he falls first
- who did this to you

Second Chance
Kyle and Madelyn use to be teenage sweethearts till something ripped them about without closure…
Now Madelyn is a recent divorcée single mom and a Seattle Real Estate. When she has a new wealthy client, she is excited that this might be her ticket out of the city away from her toxin abusive ex. When the client shows up, she finds out it’s Kyle. Both completely shocked. Mad and I reared with one another but she needs the big sale and Kyle wants answers. When he sees bruises on Madelyn, he offers protection as fake dating one another. She will play his girlfriend at his friend’s wedding and will also leave her ex away from her.
The forced proximity with one another and the help of a one bed at the hotel away for the wedding made them both face the past. Hearing their stories come together was very emotional. My heart broke for both.
Can I just say how much I love being around the couples of the Red Zone Rivals!? (Especially Leo 🫠🫠)

all the feels
The way that I was a sobbing mess after finishing
this one. I am convinced that this is the best book
Kandi has ever written. 🥹😭🤍
single mom • second chance • "who hurt you"
forced proximity • fake dating • sports romance
ALL. THE. FEELS. LITERALLY. All of them. 😭🤍
This audible performance was perfection. It's a duet narration so the male speaks all the male roles and the female speaks all the female roles. The performance was incredible. Not only could you physically feel the emotions they were trying to convey, but it felt like you were watching and hearing it all take place right in front of you.
💭From the beginning, the tension was HIGH. I'm talking skyscrapers. Hating her while battling with the love he always has for her, Kyle goes to insane lengths to keep her and Sebastian safe.
I freaking loved how all in Kyle was. Kandi is a queen at writing men, but she did something so special with this one. It was beautiful and raw to it's very core. Giving us Madelyn and Kyles, highest of highs and lowest of lows. While also delivering us the spiciest of spice.
This storyline was so beautifully done but also so heartbreaking. I am positive that it is my mission to get every single person to read this book.

KYLE MF’in ROBBINS🥹😭
KYLE MF’IN ROBBINS🥹
This audio was so amazing! Love a duet style, & these narrators were fantastic! They bring Kyle & Mads to life beautifully!
I’ll be the first to admit I wasn’t sure about Kyle, especially after the way he acted in Fair Catch, although he had grown on me in Hail Mary, but I don’t know that I’ve ever been this happy to be proven wrong!!! I ADORE HIM & MADS OKAY?! ADORE!!!!! I bawled so many different times throughout, but I loved every second of it!
Kyle & Madelyn are a second chance romance that broke me & then put me back together. Their past is so heartbreaking, but their now is so beautiful with how they come back together after so much hurt in the past. Their love may be a new favorite!
Kyle is a reformed playboy for Mads, & I love a man while falls fast, first, & HARD! Add in Mads is a single mom with the most precious little man (who he adores!!), & I’m a goner! Kyle Robbins has solidified his spot in my heart forever!
Mads is so so strong & brave, I LOVE how she protected herself & her son. She & Kyle had to fight for their future, but how they are together is incredible!! Maybe it’s because I’m a mama too, but she is one of my favorite FMCs in this series!
One of my top reads of 2024 for sure!!!

KYLE ROBBINS I AM IN LOVE
We met Kyle in earlier books and he was not my favorite but he is now! There is so much more to him than I would have ever expected. You truly never know what people have gone through. And sweet and strong Madelyn. I just adore her. I wanted to reach into the book and give her a hug.
Kyle & Madelyn's story is so special. Tears were shed and this story will stay with me for a while.
P.S. I love that we got to see where the rest of the Red Zone Rival characters and see where they are now. I just love the whole crew.
Read if you love:
- fake dating (my all time fav trope!)
- sports romance
- single mom
- one bed
- second chance
The audiobook is duet style (the best!) and narrated by Heather Schroeder and Wesley Mercer. They were the perfect fit for Madelyn and Kyle.
Thank you so much Kandi for the ARC and ALC! False Start is out NOW

a romance with emotion and fun
Oh I how I love a good redemption arc! Kyle Robbins was that character I loved to hate from the first time I met him. With each book in the ‘Red Zone Rivals’ series, I liked him more and more. And finally, we got his book… I couldn't have loved this one more. False Start is my new favorite of the series.
Kyle and Madelyn dated in high school and haven’t seen each other since. Things ended in a complicated way with them, and now Kyle is a rookie for Seattle’s NFL team and Madelyn is the real estate agent showing him a house.
Kyle needs a date to a wedding and Madelyn is having issues with her ex-husband so what’s better than fake dating?! I had so much fun watching these two fall in love again. And Mad’s son, Sebastian. Oh my goodness. He and Kyle together- it had me smiling so big. I adored them.
I’m obsessed with this series as a whole and this book in particular. Sigh. I loved it so much. It has so many of my favorite troupes- sports romance, second chance, single parent, fake dating, he falls first… It’s seriously so good! If you’re looking for a romance with emotion and fun this is a must-read!

Kyle Robbins for the Win!
Oh Kyle. I was pretty excited to hear we were getting a peak into the cocky tight end from earlier in the series. But wow did he blow me away.
🏈 Football (Pro) Romance
🏈 Second Chance
🏈 Single Mom
🏈 Who Hurt You
🏈 Fake Dating
🏈 He Falls First
🏈 Only One Bed
I love the glimpse into Madelyn and Kyle’s past and learning about how their friendship turned to more and what separated them. Both so hurt and yet unable to stay away from each other.
I’m not going to call this a redemption story. I don’t think Kyle was that bad. But peeling back his layers to the awesome guy beneath the bravado? I’m such a huge fan.
Kyle Robbins is no longer a man to be trifled with. He is a MAN. He goes after what he wants. He protects those he cares about. He is an unstoppable force and I adore him.
I read with both my eyes and ears and what a treat the DUET narration was in this book 😍

Kyle was one of those side characters that intrigued me and annoyed me at the same time. But getting to know the way he grew up and why he was the way he was? 😭😭 I’m still kicking myself for thinking that way about my lonely boi 💔😔
When Kyle and Madelyn reconnected (after they confronted their past obvs), they waisted no time. Everything felt like such a whirlwind. Kyle really showed that he was a dependable man, that he would be EVERYTHING Madelyn and Sebastian needed. And I loved seeing that so much. I loved seeing Madelyn shine after everything she’d been through, she deserves all the happiness.
