I actually really liked this dark romance. My only complaint was that I wish there was more banter and showing that they cared about each other emotionally. It was kind of more told than shown. Still curious to read the next book.

Head in the Game by Rebecca Rathe is a forbidden MM sports romance that I listened to on audio narrated by Jake Bordeaux. This is the fourth book in the Groveton College series and each book can be read as a standalone.

This is the first book of Rebecca's that I have read, and it definitely won't be my last. I was pulled in from the very beginning and couldn't wait to see what was going to happen next. The chemistry between Bryant and Jack was off the charts. Their relationship was extremely messy, but you couldn't help but root for them I really enjoyed getting both of their points of views throughout the book.

I originally read the book when it was first released and was so excited when I saw it was coming to audio. Jake did a great job on the narration. I look forward to listening to more of his work in the future.

I would recommend this book if you're looking for a forbidden romance, gay romance, age gap romance, or sports romance.
