Intercepted by Love: Part One: The Quarterback's Heart, Book 1 Audible Audiobook – Unabridged

Pro quarterback Cade Prescott's last play was to lose the Super Bowl for his team. To escape the bad press and recover from the disastrous season, he changes his appearance and hides away at a sleepy university town.

Andie Wales's first love is researching ancient bad boy kings. She is blissfully unaware of the Super Bowl and modern day bad boys. When her dog meets and mates with Cade's dog, Andie's first concern is to get her dog to a vet. She gets waylaid by Cade and his hunky good looks and has no idea just how out of her league Cade is.

Despite his secrets, Cade feels differently about Andie and thinks he might be falling in love. Unfortunately, his past catches up with him, and he is forced to make a difficult decision. Can a professional athlete and a research librarian truly prove the axiom that opposites not just attract, but were meant for each other?

Cliffhanger. Cade and Andie's story continues in Part Two.

5.0 out of 5 stars Rachelle Ayala has scored a huge touchdown with this brilliant story!

My heart is still full from reading this beautifully touching and refreshingly raw story of two people deeply hurt and scarred by their past who have chosen to push past the fear and dare to hope for more. Their search for peace and comfort have led them to each other, and while the path to their future may be filled with more struggles then they want, deep in their heart they can’t shake the hope, longing, and love that they have awoken within the other. Love knows no bounds, and hope will not fade even in the midst of the darkest of storms.

Andi considers herself a simple and content girl. She has a decent job that allows her to pursue her love of history, and she does everything she can to help her mother care for her ailing father. She believes that she is happy as she can be until she unexpectantly meets a huge brute of a man who turns out to have the biggest heart she has ever seen. Her heart won’t let her shut him out, and she finds herself doing the impossible – falling hard for this man who is a mere stranger to her. Cade has come to Andi’s town as a way to hide until he is ready to face the problems he has created back at home. The last thing he ever expected was to find the feisty and intriguing Andi. He doesn’t know how to have a real relationship, so he fumbles and trips up a few times trying to figure out how to do the whole dating thing. No matter what he can’t and then doesn’t want to fight the undeniable attraction to this remarkable woman who sees more of him than anyone else cared to. Can he prove to her that he truly loves her in spite of who he is, or will the secrets from his past ruin any chances with Andi and a future filled with true love and endless happiness?

Andi is such a wonderful character with the unconditional love she has for her parents. She doesn’t shirk from her responsibilities because of her deep and appreciative love for those who raised and cared for her. No matter how hard things get, she still does what she can to help out. Cade is one who has never been shown what it is like to truly love and be loved. Andi couldn’t be more perfect for Cade at this point in this life. Her deep love and unwavering devotion is exactly what he needs to breathe new life back into him and give him the strength and determination to turn his life around.

Rachelle Ayala has scored a huge touchdown with this brilliant story! The characters are incredible with their realistic feel and the powerful emotions that can’t be hidden or stopped. I see so much potential and beauty in this series, and I can’t wait to see what happens next.

4.0 out of 5 stars "Sweet and sexy sports romance"

I really like the relationship building between Cade and Andy. It's not lots of hot sex even before they get to know each other like so many books today. There is hot sex, but at least Cade has told her he loves her. I didn't like the huge cliffhanger tacked on to the end even though I knew the book was part one. I want to quickly find out how in the world that happened. You have to listen or read to find out. Highly recommend to anyone that enjoys romance. I voluntarily reviewed this audiobook after receiving an advanced copy.

Wowza! Grab a cold drink and turn on a fan. Rachelle Ayala is bringing the heat!

When Cade's career turns Super Bowl disastrous, he hides out in a college town with his dog, Red. Use to having anonymous sex with many women, he isn't certain about relationships. Andie is the librarian, devoted to her parents and her dog, Gollie. She gets her romance from hot dreams of King David. Would a bad boys searing touch be able to compete with fantasies of a bad boy King? When their dogs meet and mate, Cade and Andie are tossed into each other's paths. Will they be able to move forward from their pasts to be mated, too? Only the dogs know.

This is a story that will bring tears to your eyes, giggles to your mouth and heat to other parts. Football Widows, cuddle up near your honey and those amazing snacks on a chilly, fall football afternoon . Forget the blanket. You won't need it. Warning: If you are listening to the audio version, it is sure to grab your honey's attention. Headphones may be necessary.

I was entertained by Chris Abell's performance. He contributed a lot to the fun of this audiobook with his voice. I really enjoyed the variety in pitch as well as his interpretation of character voices. I loved his enthusiasm.

This story contains sexual references and is intended for a mature audience.
It is a part of a series that does need to be read in order. This book ends with a major cliffhanger.

A good start to a serial style story featuring a football player and a librarian who adores King David and antiquities. It means there’s a lot of equating between the King and the football player and their situation. It’s pushed a little too hard, but I guess if someone is obsessed with a subject, it winds up in conversation a lot.

There’s a lot going on with at least two villainous characters introduced so far (by the end of this installment). It’s fun.

5.0 out of 5 stars Couldn't put it down. Cade and Andie are HOT!
Reviewed in the United States on March 25, 2015

Be prepared to spend your afternoon with this couple once you start reading! Couldn't pull myself away as I dove into this lusty book. Cade and Andie are hot! Even though they try to deny anything more than physical attraction going on, I couldn't wait to see what would happen when they started seeing each other differently.

They are both great characters. I love how independent and strong Andie is. I think the thing I love most about Cade is learning about his past and seeing the man he will grow into as the series develops. The secondary plot of them both loving dogs and working together because of that was intriguing too.

My only complaint? The darn cliffhanger and the fact that the other book isn't out yet! A fun read and I look forward to the remaining books in the series!

Cade Prescott has just made the biggest mistake of his football career - throwing an interception in the Super Bowl and causing his team to lose the game. Needing an escape from the press, he heads to Itasca to take some time to recharge.

Andie Wales is a librarian and an expert on King David. When Cade walks in on Andie in a somewhat compromising situation Andie is horrified, but not as horrified as when she sees Cade's dog Red mounting her dog Gollie.

As Andie and Cade begin to get to know each other, they both develop strong feelings for each other but it is only after a serious event that they really realize how much they mean to each other. But when the truth about Cade's past comes out it may be too late.

This book is the first in a series and does end with a cliffhanger!!
