Blurb

Wildcat: a football formation in which the ball is snapped, not to the quarterback, but to another player lined up in the quarterback position.

Wild, Cat: a beautiful woman from the sky, who hooked me against the rails, and has me on the ropes. Sweet like honey, with a hint of sass burning behind her pretty brown eyes, she took over my heart without warning.

I’m Quinn Bailey, quarterback for the New York Mavericks.
Sports analysts predicted I’d break records and take my team all the way.

But no one predicted this.

And just like the other team, I never saw it coming.

Review

4.5 @QuinnBailey + @WildCommaCat = 4ever! stars

“It only takes one minute of bravery. One minute of insane, embarrassingly crazy courage to change your life. Sometimes, it only takes that one minute for something great to happen.”

Wildcat delivers a sweet and swoony love story that left me with a huge smile on my face. It has the classic Max Monroe humor with a whole lot of heart, and I couldn’t put it down!

Quinn Bailey is the quarterback for the New York Mavericks. During the season, he is all about football. He stays away from distractions at all costs; however, when a certain flight attendant catches his eye, he can’t seem to stay away and his life gets flipped upside down.

I loved Quinn! He is an amazing on and off the field. He is considerate, genuine, and patient with fans, and it was refreshing to have a major sports star stay grounded and not let the fame go to his head. I couldn’t help but fall for this sweet, goofy, all-around great guy. And he is especially romantic with Catharine which made me totally swoon!! I couldn’t get the goofy grin that formed whenever Quinn was around. The way he unabashedly pursues Catharine is endearing, and though he could be a little over-the-top, he makes it known that he likes strong women and Catharine fits the bill.

Catharine is sassy, sweet, and awkward at times. The things that go through her head are hilarious and I loved her fun personality. She is wonderful, confident, and beautiful inside and out. She is a little timid at first when she was getting to know Quinn but I loved when she opens up and begins to take the lead while still having fun.

That’s right, buddy. It’s on tonight. Tonight, I was Cat Wild, tigress. I would be bold, I would be confident, I would be irresistible. Hear me roar!

Quinn and Catharine are amazing together. I loved how they met, it was so simple and cute. They just clicked and I believed their attraction. The banter is perfect, every interaction amusing, and there wasn’t any stupid stuff between them. I loved how functional they were as a couple while trying to make things work with their busy schedules. The way their relationship progressed was hysterical, especially with all of the “stalking,” and watching Quinn woo Cat made my heart flutter.

This man, he was the perfect amount of sweet and adorable yet knew all of the right moments to be sarcastic and cocky and sexy and alpha as fuck.

Being with a sports star isn’t always easy and just when things are almost perfect, everything goes wrong. I wanted to cry when Quinn and Cat hit some huge roadblocks. I was so angry with the way things went down and though there was a moment where I was even a little frustrated with Quinn, I understood the conflict he was going through. I am glad he quickly realized what was truly important and watching him accept his faults and grow as a person was awesome.

I have to give a shout out to the secondary characters. I loved Casey, Nikki, and Denver and the support they gave to Catharine and Quinn. I would love a Denver book because he seems like a really cool guy who needs to find love. I also loved getting little glimpses into the lives of the other Mavericks players and am excited to be getting Sean, Cam and Leo’s stories.

Sweet, romantic, and full of fun and feels, I couldn’t get enough of Wildcat. It is an amazing start to the new Mavericks series and I cannot wait for more!!

Before we’d met, I was one, but when we were together, I was a half—yet somehow so much more than I ever was before.
