Fatal Opposition by Tracee Lydia Garner is book 3 in the Parker Family series. In this book, Cashell finds herself alone in a bar on her birthday after her friend cancels on her. There, she meets NFL player James Parker. They quickly click and find themselves together more than they expected. This is a good read and can be read as a standalone novel. I received a digital copy of this book from the publisher with no obligations. These opinions are entirely my own.

This is the first book I have read in the series and it is a super read for a quiet afternoon and although it is a Christian romance you don't have to be religious to enjoy it I'm not and I really liked it.

Loved this book! I have found a great new author and I'm looking forward to reading more of her books
The author grabbed me in the first few pages and kept me till the last page. It was awesome book with very interesting characters.

I picked up this book to try a new-to-me author, and I got a little over a third of the way through.

There are aspects of the story that had me interested (an independent businesswoman in her thirties, a professional athlete, and the prospect of danger), but I'm finding the read to be fairly slow, and I'm not connecting with the characters as much as I would like. Perhaps I would have needed to come into the series from the beginning to care about the characters more.

While the story may not be my cup of tea, what I read of it was well-written.

(Star rating is based on the portion I read.)

Fatal Opposition is a well written inspiration romance. I loved the plot and the characters. The author is new to me and I enjoyed her writing. I recommend this book to readers who enjoy a good clean romance.

After meeting at a hotel and enjoying each other's company, James and Cashell have to interact in a work environment. His 'past' and her health problems cast shadows over their growing relationship, but they gradually work through the problems - only to face a still more fatal opposition!

I enjoyed this story, but felt that it was somehow lacking something. The main characters were well-drawn, but the suspense side of things felt incomplete and not properly connected to the overall plot. Also, the whole thing with his mum felt like a bit of a loose thread at the end. Watching James and Cashell work through their problems felt worthwhile, and his issues regarding his adoption were dealt with sensitively.

All in all, not my favourite book, but it was still not a bad read. Overall, the writing was pretty good, the content was clean and the language good. I'm not really a football fan, but I didn't feel that that detracted from my enjoyment of the story. I also haven't read the previous books in the series, but it's sufficient of a stand-alone that I didn't feel lost.

Note that I received a free copy of the book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. I was not required to write a positive review and this is my considered opinion of the book.

I just finished reading Fatal Opposition. It was a little slow taking off but once you got into the story it kept the surprises coming. I have not read the first 2 books of the series but it didn't affect my reading experience. The main protagonists are a football player and woman hired to help with pr. The two have a series of unexpected, hold your breath moments. Well worth the read. I will be looking to read the other two books in the near future. #Chrisfic #NetGalley
