Reviewer’s Thoughts
QUARTERBACK DRAW is an intoxicating story about Grant Cassidy a professional quarterback, who plays for the St Louis Traders. ย Grant meets model Katrina Korsova on a commercial shoot. ย Katrinaโs a high profile, beautiful model and from the moment she approaches Grant, heโs enchanted with everything about her.ย Katrina, on the other hand, wants nothing to do with Grant, even if she does feel the zing sparking between them as they work together.ย Although Katrina is a famous model, she doesnโt have much of a social life, because sheโs too busy raising her two younger siblings.
Grant has never met a woman like Katrina; sheโs innocent, sweet, smart and down to earth. ย She isnโt anything like the usual models he encounters.ย Katrina is standoffish, but Grant never lets that bother him and he keeps gently pushing her and never gives up.ย Katrina takes life far too seriously and Grant tries to show her how to add some fun to her life.
Jaci Burton knows how to write a delightful story with realistic characters that are successful, but also easy to identify with.ย ย I liked everything about Grant, heโs the perfect boyfriend. ย Heโs is a wonderful combination of fun, smart, charming and sensitive, but also a tough, hot football player. ย Heโs also a caring, generous lover and when Grant and Katrina get together, they burn up the sheets.ย The Cassidyโs are a big, warm, loving close knit family and they keep Grant grounded.ย His three brothers are also athletes and constantly give each other a hard time and love to challenge each other.ย ย I canโt wait for more stories about the Cassidy brothers in future books.
