Field Goal

About This Audiobook

Field Goal isn’t just another sports romance—it’s a sharp, heartfelt dive into fatherhood, second chances, and the messy, beautiful chaos of starting over. Lisa Suzanne crafts a story that’s equal parts tender and tough, following Marcus, a widowed NFL coach suddenly navigating single parenthood while coaching a team of overconfident freshmen. When a fiery new physical therapist joins the staff, sparks fly—not just between them, but between Marcus and the unruly players he’s barely keeping in line. Suzanne balances the grit of locker-room politics with the quiet moments of Marcus’s private struggle, making this more than a love story; it’s a testament to how love can rewrite our future when we’re brave enough to let it.

The audiobook’s strength lies in its narration duo: Lance Greenfield’s gruff, measured delivery nails Marcus’s stoic vulnerability, while Callie Dalton’s bright, no-nonsense tone captures the warmth and wit of the female lead. Their chemistry isn’t just audible—it’s electric, pulling listeners into a world where football is the backdrop, but human connection is the real game. The production enhances the intimacy, especially in the quieter scenes, though some repetitive sports jargon might frustrate casual fans of the genre.
