9 Football Romances for Game Day Reading
It’s officially football season!
If you’ve been around these parts before, you’ll know I am a diehard Buffalo Bills fan. Even before I lived in Buffalo, I was raised by a Bills fan in New England. It was a dark time, as Tom Brady ruined most of my childhood lol but it has been so fun to be part of this Bills era. Well, fun and painful. But that is the life of a Bills fan!
So, why not combine my two favorite pieces of media: football and romance novels.
Touchdowns and Temptations by Mrs. Kristal
This is a billionaire and football romance so if you like high stakes and high drama, this is the book for you.

College football 🤝 college romance. There is something so nostalgic about college romances. Maybe it’s because that’s where I met my husband! But this is a student athlete romance, where Lorelei is forced to moved into her brother’s football team’s house. It’s grumpy/sunshine!
