The Wall of Winnipeg and Me: A Spicy Football Romance

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Mariana Zapata’s most beloved book, The Wall of Winnipeg and Me—now with new exclusive content!

Vanessa Mazur refuses to feel bad for quitting—she knows she’s doing the right thing. The thankless job of personal assistant to the top defensive end in the National Football Organization was always supposed to be temporary. She has plans for her life, and none of them include washing extra-large underwear one more day for a man who could never find it in him to tell her good morning, congratulate her on a job well done, or wish her a happy birthday—even when she was spending it working for him.

The legendary “Wall of Winnipeg” may be adored by thousands, but after two years Van has had enough.

But when Aiden Graves shows up at her door begging her to come back, she’s beyond shocked. Mr. Walled-Off Emotions is actually letting his guard down for once. And she’s even more dumbstruck when he explains that her job description is about to become even more outrageous: something that takes the “personal” in personal assistant to a whole new level.

What do you say to the man who is used to getting everything he wants?

I loved this book so much. Reading made me feel giddy and invested in these characters. Reminded me of why I loved reading. Mariana writes beautifully. I thought that I would get frustrated with a slow burn, but she puts so much growth and connection between the love interests that even though you know they are going to get together in the end (it is a romance book after all) you are almost surprised and so happy for the couple like you would if your best friend found love.
