Roughing the Kicker Saints and Sinners Book 1 edition by Eden Butler Romance eBooks

Eden Butler take a bow! This story centres around Reese Noble, the first female NFL placekicker, and Ryder Glenn, quarterback and captain of the New Orleans Steamers. Two people who once shared love, but who have seen or spoken to each other in ten years, due to a tragic event and even greater misunderstandings.

This story is full of so many emotions animosity, grief, elation, mistrust, fear, jealousy and guilt, so prepare for one almighty roller coaster ride. I absolutely adored Reese. Here was a woman paving the way for others in what is the last bastion of a "man's world". She showed a huge amount of grit, determination and perseverance to follow her one and only dream, ans she was not about to let all those non-believers get to her. Add into the mix Ryder, the only man she has ever loved, a man who now wants nothing to do with her.

This is really a story about learning from the pain of the past and looking with hope for the future. A beautiful second chance romance that will have your heart breaking for both Reese and Ryder. It will also have you cheering for Reese and the decisions that she makes. It may be a long road to find love once again, but that road is always worth travelling. The secondary characters are just as fabulous, I can only hope that there are books for Gia, Cat and Wilson the future.

Definitely a recommended read.

Roughing the Kicker Saints and Sinners Book 1 edition by Eden Butler Romance eBooks Reviews

You would think that because I’ve read so many of Eden Butler’s books that I would be used to the angsty scenes and emotional upheavals that drive her storylines, but each and every time I enter one of Butler’s stories, I find myself overwhelmed by the characters’ struggles…by their inability to let go of the past and focus on the present…by the positive and negative feelings that push not only the characters but the plot as well as these two people’s lives collide in a less than ideal situation for both of them.

Reese Noble may be breaking barriers in the professional sports’ world, but it doesn’t come without criticism and backlash. Every aspect of her life is under scrutiny as the only female player in the National Football League, and with so many people watching her and waiting for her to fail, there’s an extreme amount of pressure that she has to deal with, but what makes things even worse for Reese is the fact that her team’s quarterback, Ryder Glenn, despises her and makes both her professional and personal life hell due to their shared past and the fact that he hasn’t found a way to forgive her for what happened between them a decade ago. But Reese is a fighter…she’s a competitor and regardless of the uphill battle she encounters, she refuses to give up…she refuses to cower and that’s what makes Reese an extraordinary heroine because most women, given the history with the playmaker of their team and the fact that a lot of people want to see them fail would fall prey to the pressure, but that’s not something that Reese will ever do.

Ryder Glenn is a grade A jerk for quite a bit of the story; he’s stubborn and vengeful, and he blames Reese for what happened to their relationship. Ryder doesn’t make things easy for Reese, but that’s partly because Ryder’s never dealt with what happened and is unwilling to gain a new perspective, holding on to what he feels occurred and where the blame should sit, which means that until he faces the past, accepts the full truth, and chooses to move forward without it as an albatross around his neck, they will never find a common ground and Ryder will miss out on a second chance with the only woman he’s ever wanted by his side.

Roughing the Kicker is the perfect title for what Reese endures because it’s not just the other teams’ players she must contend with and prove herself to…it’s the entire league and all those who watch professional football, but she gets ‘roughed up’ even more by her own teammates and it’s not the physical licks she takes, it’s more the emotional mind games that are played against her that make her question her value…her skill…her position as a professional football kicker, but even more as a female athlete who has busted her ass to get where she is.

The one aspect of Butler’s writing that amazes me each and every time I read her stories is the fact that she takes risks…she ventures away from the norm and listens to what her characters want and does everything in her power to tell their tale as they want it told, regardless of how difficult that may be and that speaks to the type of storyteller that Butler is and how the craft and process of writing and being true to herself and her words is of utmost importance.

I’ve never finished one of Butler’s books without being emotionally drained by what her characters go through, which absolutely proves the power of her words and her ability to capture her readers’ attention and keep it until the very last page.

Enjoyed this book.
I absolutely love Reese and Ryder. I also enjoy how this story links some of the characters from Thin Love series. I felt I was coming home. Reece is one tough chick. I love her!
Am I wrong for trying to prolong the end of thus book? I just loved it. And to think this was the first book ti out me through so many emotions. A roller coaster ride with the motion sickness. And not to mention the story tackling the good ole boys ways. A great book worth the read.
I love sports stories....I love romance....and I love a book that embraces both! Eden Butler has taken us back to her NO Steamers world inhabited by Kona Hale to bring us the story of Reese Noble, the first female place kicker in the NFL. Reese and Ryder's story is a roller coaster ride from contempt for his attitude to understanding and, eventually, their HEA. Highly recommend and look forward to the next installment.
