Quarterback Holden Moore can have any girl he wants. Except me: the coach's daughter. With piercing green eyes, herculean biceps, and irresistible dimples, Holden is the number one target for every girl on campus. But according to his teammates, football is the only love of his life. He's their leader, their QB1 and team captain who is all business and no play. But when I'm with him? Mr. Serious isn't serious at all. He loves to push my buttons, to pin me with those sexy eyes of his and tease me until I bite back. I remind him I'm off limits. He can't have me, and I don't want him - or anyone else, for that matter. I'm here for one reason: to show my father I'm more than his greatest disappointment. But when an old injury flares up and I'm forced to work with Holden every day as his athletic trainer, his attempts to get under my skin start becoming harder to resist. We can't give in, no matter how much the air crackles between us when we're close. I'm the coach's daughter, and if Holden Moore wants to go pro, he's got to play by daddy's rules. Otherwise, he'll be off the team. And he's not the only one with something to lose.

I have been waiting for Holden's story since the beginning of this series and I'm so happy to have finally gotten his story! It blew me away! Both him and Julep.
Julep is deeply broken and just surviving the best she can. Grief is hard, but there is added stress that makes it difficult for her to feel anyother other than profound sadness.
Holden has only thought of one thing his whole life...football. He doesn't have time for anything else. That is, until he lays eyes on the one person he can't have...the coaches daughter.
Kandi Steiner is the queen of angsty sexual tension and she does a phenomenal job making the slow burning romance absolutely incredible.
Spoiler-Free Review:
Holden. Freaking. Moore. I have had such a soft spot for Holden since book 1, Fair Catch, and his book did not disappoint. I'm not sure how I'll ever be able to decide on a favorite at this point. Not me wondering how Kandi Steiner functions with these amazing characters in her head! Quarterback Sneak is the third installment in the Red Zone Rivals series, and it follows Holden, quarterback and captain of the football team, and Julep, the new head coach's daughter. Can you say forbidden romance? Because, yes please! Both Holden and Julep have pretty traumatic pasts, but they process their grief differently. Julep has an extremely hard exterior, and only when she begins working with Holden on shoulder rehab do we see her tough shell crack a bit. Julep's character arc is one of my favorites I've read in this series. This book definitely pulled at my heartstrings a bit more than the others, and I cried quite a few times. The romance between Julep and Holden is so sweet but also so spicy! This is an adult romance, 18+ for sexual content and themes.
