About this ebook

 New York Times bestselling author Lexi Ryan brings readers a sexy NFL player who’s pulled out all the stops for one more chance with the love of his life.

 

I have four months to make my wife fall in love with me or let her go forever.

 

I loved Bailey Green long before she watched her loser ex take his last breaths. I held her while they lowered his coffin into the ground, stilled her shaking hands when the nightmares would tear her from sleep. I waited for her through her grief. But while she was always willing to let me in her bed, she refused to let me in the one place I longed to be—her heart.

 

Tired of playing second string to a dead man, I let her go. I moved to Florida to begin my NFL career and tried to pretend my perfect life didn’t leave me empty. I’d almost given up. Until one drunken night in Vegas, we stumbled down the aisle and said, “I do.”

 

In exchange for the divorce she wants so badly, she’s agreed to remain my wife until the end of the year. She has no idea the favors I’ve called in or the lies I’ve told to get her here, but if I succeed, none of that matters.

 

My secrets always seemed justified, but Bailey has her own—secrets that explain why she always pushed me away, secrets that make me wonder if I should have let her. Now we’re in too deep and I might lose the only girl I’ve ever loved and the best friend I’ve ever had.

 

In Too Deep is a sexy and emotional novel intended for mature readers. It’s the fifth book in the world of the Blackhawk Boys, but can be enjoyed as a standalone.

Ratings and reviews

Lexi Ryan scores with IN TOO DEEP the fifth book in the Blackhawk Boys Series. I couldn’t wait to read this story. Mason Dahl and Bailey Green have been involved since the first book to the series. Their relationship is complicated, and there was so much more going on than what you gathered from the previous books. Mason and Baily got married in Las Vegas while at the bachelor/bachelorette party in book four, FALLING HARD. Now Mason has devised a plan to try to win Baily over for good, but he’s on a short timetable to convince her. This contemporary football romance is suitable for new adult and adult audiences. Lexi Ryan did an amazing job with her character development. Mason and Baily come from different means. Regardless they have many similarities and make a fantastic couple. They care about each other deeply. Mason and Baily try to protect each other in their own way. They both are very human and make mistakes. They have difficult obstacles to overcome and become stronger for it. The plot was clever and believable. Mason’s relationship with Gulf Gators NFL franchise owner, Bill McCombs, puts an interesting spin on the story. Mason’s ex-girlfriend, Lindy, also creates some compelling turbulence. It amazed me what a great guy Mason turned out to be with Christian Dahl as his father. It must have been his mother’s influence. We discover multiple life-changing secrets that both Mason and Baily have been keeping. I like that the story spans over four years, flashing back and forth in time. I love this series. Each book is extremely powerful. After reading every novel, I think there is no way that Lexi Ryan can match or top the previous story. She has amazing done so. If you follow the Blackhawk Boys series, you won’t want to miss this story. If you haven’t read this series, you could probably read this book as a standalone, but I think you would enjoy it more if you read the series in order. Every book is skillfully written and a worthwhile read. I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book.

Great Book! I have read several books from Lexi Ryan, she is definitely a good story teller. In too Deep was a real emotional roller coaster, my heart went out to Bailey and Mason, to love someone for soo long and make sacrifices and be selfless just because you believe that is what's best for all. I thought that Lexi wrote a very interesting story line, I was drawn in from the beginning and could not put the book down. Her character development of Mason and Bailey was amazing, I loved the flash backs to the past, it helped understand why things were the way they were between Bailey and Mason. Mason was a great character, he was very open and real with his emotions that at certain points your heart bled for him. Sexual tension between Bailey and Mason was crazy intense and Lexi did an amazing job of not making the book all about these great sex scenes but also about this truly complicated love story. This is the 5th book to the Blackhawk Boys series, I have not read any of the previous books, I can honestly say that I am now very interested in reading the other books in the series. I appreciated that this book can be read as a stand alone and you don't feel like your missing anything from not reading the other books. I would very much recommend this book to friends.

I waited for this book and finished it in just under 24 hours!!! I'm exausted but it was brilliant. Wish there was more of this story.
