ALPHA BOOK CLUB REVIEW

The End Game

by Kate McCarthy
Synopsis

“Professional athletes are pillars of their respective communities. They are heroes in the eyes of boys and girls and are expected to conduct themselves in a manner that positively represents their community.”
The public loves a good scandal. Seeing someone fall from the pinnacle of success makes a great headline. No one knows that better than I do. What started out as a promising career in college football, spiralled into scandal and shame.
But being a hero is easier said then done. Especially when there are those who expected to see the great Brody Madden fail. I craved nothing except being the best—willing to do anything to prove them wrong. But I went too far, and I tried too hard, and it broke me.
“At the time of going to print, Jordan Elliott was unavailable for comment.”
I met Brody Madden in my senior year of college. An Australian native on an international scholarship, I was the female soccer sensation with stars in her eyes and no room for a hotshot wide receiver with a chip on his shoulder.
But a heart bursting with ambition and a driving fire to succeed isn’t made of stone. I became his strength, his obsession, and the greatest love of his life. Only I wasn’t there when he needed me most.
This is a story about love and a game that takes everything. Where the path to glory is paved with sacrifice. Where pressure makes you, or breaks you, and triumph is born in the ashes of failure. Where two people’s end game will change everything.
*** 18+ recommended. Contains adult language and adult themes.

Review
4 Touchdowns

Kate McCarthy takes us to a college campus in Austin, Texas where we see how students struggle with keeping up with their grades, and cope with the strenuous demands with being an athlete. I found this book very emotional. Reading about collegiate sports. The ups and downs and the pressure that these athletes deal with. The characters are very complex dealing with family problems, emotional insecurities and doubts of self worth.  
I enjoyed reading this book, but sometimes I felt that the pace dragged, then the pace would pick up again. Jordan is a very inspirational, strong character. Brody is a character to be respected when all is said and done. Although there were sexual situations in this book, I would classify it on the tamer side. If you enjoy feel good books with happy ever afters, you will enjoy this book.
