Things change when she interviews for a job and he sees her way differently..Now this is where the drama comes, we have stalkers, daddy issues, heartbreak and then reunion..

A very well written and well rounded story about an older man and younger woman. One of my favorite’s. He is a football player and she ends up in his town at college as a journalism student in college. She is his best friend’s child and he has known her a long time. She goes from just a kid to a hot young woman. He dad does not approve of the situation. This is where it gets hot and steamy but add in the danger and it is exciting, intriguing, hot and steamy and so much more. I recommend it. I received a review copy and voluntarily review it.
Journalism student interviews football player and gets a touchdown!!!
Dad’s Football Friend is another winner by Flora Ferrari. Peach and Ryan have great chemistry but are also fun and intriguing as characters. This story combines the themes of Older Man / Younger Woman and Best Friends Daughter / Dad’s Best Friend with sports and journalism. Plus add in some sexy scenes as only this author can do and you have a really great book.
I received a free ARC copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. My opinions are all my own.
If you love reading older men and younger women romances .This is one for you .It all started when Peach Kelly was 18 and fell in love with her Dad’s footballer best friend Ryan Sinclair.
Not my favorite but still pretty good. Too much unnecessary drama that just made the book longer than it needed to be. Fantastic ending though!

O my. This book is on fire and I loved it! I loved the characters and found them to be adorable. Peach is trying to see if there’s a chance or if she should move on. She never thought she would catch his eye much less his heart, even if she has dreamed so. Ryan is fierce and ready to show Peach what he wants. Her. When trouble comes, will Ryan push Peach away in a misguided attempt to protect or will Peach show Ryan what strength his woman holds.

Oh wow, can Ryan please step out of the pages of the book and be mine? The story was a little typical in that the much-older man wants and tries to date his best friend’s daughter. Well, we all know pretty much how that’s gonna go. You know, they’ll tell everyone when they’re ready . . . blah blah blah. Yeah, that never happens. However, how that particular scenario plays out tugged at my heart so hard I thought it would break. Great story, beautiful writing. Will definitely read again.
I received this book with the understanding that I could leave a voluntary and honest review.
In this book we meet Peach Kelly and Ryan Sinclair. Peach is a journalism major and knows the way to make herself stand out it to have an interview that will make people take notice. In Peach’s mind that interview is her father’s best friend Ryan. The thing she worries about though is the long standing crush she has had on the man. She just hopes she can pull this off without embarrassing herself. Ryan is doing a favor for an old friend. He hasn’t seen Peach in years and figures he will still see the young girl she once was. However she is all grown up and all Ryan sees now is mine. Will these two truly find a HEA or will others make sure that never happens?
This is another amazing hit by this author. It does have its ups and downs that I really want to tell you about. However I don’t want to ruin the story for any other readers. I will say these characters will grab hold of you and not let go even when you read those two words “the end”. I would highly recommend this book to anyone and everyone.
A riveting older man younger woman romance! A well written, well-developed, and exciting read! It is a drama-filled, witty, funny, and fast pace engaging page-turner. The characters are well developed and likeable with off the charts chemistry between them. Definitely recommended!

This is the story of Peach in college reaching for her goals. She reconnects with Ryan for an article for her journalism class after almost 3 years since the summer she fell in love with him. Ryan notices Peach in a new light and can’t help being protective of her. How dare the stalker touch her? The characters are strong, unique and resilient. The storyline is passionate, suspenseful and full of ups and downs. Great read.

I liked this story a lot. It has drama, romance, action, family issues, suffering, love, a bit of steam and a lot of love. The attraction between the couple is so strong that they want to save each other in their own way. But can they make it real when the world is against them.
Absolutely a story that has it all and it feels real because the issues could be from a real situation.
Would have liked the epilogue to be a bit more deep in the story and not that fast paced.
Absolutely a story worth reading.
Peach a 21 year old journalism student has been in love with her fathers friend since she was 18 Ryan is a 41 year old football player he thought she was sweet when he met her three years ago now that he has reconnected with her he can’t believe how hot she is but he knows one thing he wants her and he wants her for ever. They will both have to fight for what they want as stalker set his sights on Peach Will they have a chance will Ryan be able to keep her safe
F;lra ghas started to lengthen her books adding a lot more meat and fleshing out her characters making what where good books into great books She is still one of my favourite authors
Flora Ferrari does it again with another interesting five star read. Detailed, full of steam and passion. Great chemistry between the main characters. Tons of drama and LOL moments. A must read!!

I liked the storyline and Ryan, Peach, Olly and Aaron. Ryan is a famous quarterback and best friends with Aaron. Peach is a college journalism major whose best friend is Olly. Peach has been in love with Ryan since she was 18 and now 3yrs later, has a chance to interview him and get closer to him. Once the 2 of them kiss there is no going back for either of them. Loved the ending!
What a peach
Peach Kelly is a college student, for her journalism degree, she falls in a favor from her father. Ask his buddy if she can interview him.
Ryan Sinclair is 41 and the oldest football player on his team, the Sharks. Once he sees Peach, it’s on.
Drama and a fight caught on video.
Steamy and they do get to know each other over several months.

Another hot and sexy read by Ms Ferrari. Peach and Ryan were a great pair from the very beginning. They both know what they want when they meet up again 3 years after seeing one another at Peach’s graduation. Peach is now in her last year of college and her feelings for Ryan her father’s best friend have not changed. Ryan can’t believe how beautiful Peach has become since he saw her last. He also can’t believe how attracted he is to her. All these two can seem to think about is how they can be together without upsetting her father. This was a great read and I love the HEA.
I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.
TOUCHDOWN!!
Peach is in school to be a journalist. She has had a major crush on her dads friend. He is a known famous football player. Little does she know he has the same feelings but can’t make advancements to her cause of her father. Ryan is a famous player that is doing his friend a favor by doing an interview. The interviewer is no other then Peach. Ryan is in aww with Peach. After some trouble both of them are together forever just like Peach has wanted since she was 18.
