Blurb:
When fate throws a second chance . . . catch it.
Jonah Dallmann
Over two years ago, I met a woman on New Year’s Eve, and it was the best night of my life. That is until the next morning when it became the worst.
One voice message. One swerve over a double yellow line. One little girl, my niece, that’s now mine.
It hasn’t been easy, these things never are, but we’re trying. Now, I’m twenty-six, and determined to be the best wide receiver on our team, while she’s seven and spends her days reading books and dancing ballet.
Only, I haven’t just grieved the loss of my brother, but her too. My heart has ached for what could have been, and what I had to let go. I know what I did to her was wrong, unfortunately, I never had an opportunity to explain that at the time I thought I was right. But as the door opens and she steps in wearing green scrubs and a long white coat, shock ripples through me and hope that I might finally get the chance.

I always wondered if this day would come, but I never expected to see him here, with her, in one of my patient rooms. He’s even better looking than I remember and giving off single dad vibes, too, as he cares for his adorable niece. A niece I didn’t know he had.
I was surprised when he asked if he could see me again, but I instantly declined. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Only now we keep running into each other, and I’m confused. Is fate throwing us a second chance, and if so, should I catch it?

Review:
Honestly, I don’t know how to give Wildflowers and Wide Receivers all the praise that it deserves. I could have sat down and read this in one day, so good! It’s sweet, heartfelt, and sometimes heartbreaking. You can’t help but feel for Jonah and Vivi as they deal with the loss of her parents and figuring out how to move forward. And the implications it has on their lives. But he’s such an amazing uncle, a great girl dad, and with his friend group they shower Vivi with the love and support she needs.
I absolutely adored Jonah and Sophie’s entire romance, as they find a way back to each other and face what their connection might mean for the future. And while their late story issue was pretty obvious, and could have been better handled by them, I do feel like it’s a true-life thing and handled in a realistic way. I easily see how they found themselves in the situations they did and why they acted the way they did.
This is my first time reading Kathryn Andrews and I loved every minute of it. It had so many feels and had me all over the place with how much I loved ALL the characters. Jonah’s friends are an awesome group of guys, there for each other in so many ways, and I am definitely looking forward to seeing what happens next!
