About This Audiobook
A reluctant football star meets his match when a PR disaster forces him into an unlikely partnership with a fierce zookeeper who has zero patience for his attitude. Graydon St. John, a brooding defensive end for the San Francisco Foghorns, finds himself thrust into the spotlight at the city zoo as part of a league-mandated media campaign. His assigned partner, Maple Baker, cares more about protecting her beloved flamingos than stroking any athlete's ego. What starts as forced cooperation for the cameras quickly evolves into sharp-witted banter and undeniable chemistry, but both have secrets that could derail their growing connection before it truly begins.
The impressive ensemble of six narrators transforms this enemies-to-lovers romance into a fully immersive audio experience. Emma Wilder and Connor Crais anchor the dual perspective with distinct voices that capture Maple's passionate determination and Graydon's guarded vulnerability. The supporting cast of Stella Hunter, Samantha Brentmoor, Teddy Hamilton, and J.F. Harding brings depth to the secondary characters, creating a rich soundscape that enhances the zoo setting and football world. Their seamless transitions and authentic chemistry make every heated exchange and tender moment crackle with energy, perfectly complementing Quinn's signature blend of humor and heart.
