Sixteen years is a long time. In a marriage, it’s a milestone. On the gridiron, it’s a miracle. Reed Johnson wants more time for everything, but time is funny that way.

It can be cruel.

With a body that can’t quite take the hits it used to and a heart tired of being torn in two different directions, Reed is faced with a reality he’s not quite ready for—life without the game. He became a man under Friday night game lights and in college stadium tunnels, and without the grit and the glory that’s earned ten yards at a time, he’s afraid of what kind of man he’ll be.

But there’s more than a game at stake now.

Reed’s wife, Nolan, is afraid too. She’s seen what can happen when the love of her life pushes himself too hard, and she can’t escape the nightmares she relives after almost losing her entire world to one single play on the field.

There is no compromise when it comes to football. Same goes for the heart. You’re either all in, or you get crushed. For Reed and Nolan, the clock is ticking down. Time…it does that. One way or another, they’re going to have to make a choice.

This is their hail Mary.

This is win or lose.

(The Hail Mary is book 3 in The Waiting Series, which follows high school sweethearts Reed Johnson and Nolan Lennox through football, life, love and everything messy that goes along with it. The series begins with Waiting on the Sidelines and Going Long. Book 3 is for more mature readers and deals with adult themes.)

"A friend recommended me this book. Let me just say I had no idea what this book was about and when I sat down to read this story is grabbed ahold of me and I didn’t want to put it down. I literally was laughing out loud at moments and others I was straight sobbing. This book will pull at every single one of your heart strings so be prepared. Nate is definitely going in the top 5 book boyfriends. What is not to love with this man."

"I enjoyed this book even more than the first. The secondary characters were more involved and it made a fuller book. It wasn't a simple love story for Nolan and Reed but it was worth it. The dialogue in this one is at times really funny and others really beautiful and I shed plenty of tears. Looking forward to reading many more Ginger Scott books. Highly recommend."

"When I first heard this book was coming out I was not sure if I would like it or not. I really liked the first two books in this series but I was not sure if it really needed a third book. I was wrong. I loved this book. It was the perfect conclusion to the series. It was nice to see a couple in their late 30's and how they manged their lives. This book reminded me of how much I loved the characters in this series. Overall I thought this book was great."

"Ginger Scott is one of my faves. This series has been so fun to read and I am excited for the next. I really enjoy how realistic the characters are. Logan is really sweet and not perfect, and the same with Rachel. Great writing and character development as always."
