#1 in SPORTS FICTION

The game's over for me - and she won.

I don't just want her... I crave her.

When Amelia Adams tells everyone my days as Chicago's quarterback are over, I vow never to give her another minute of my time--until the team owner sees an empty stadium, and forces us together on a reality show in hopes of filling the seats.

When Bryce Luck becomes my assignment, I swear his brown eyes and dimpled smile won't make my knees weak--that I'll keep a professional boundary. But I can't fight this attraction, especially when he whispers sweet nothings in my ear and promises to do a million dirty things to me when the cameras stop rolling.

When the show is over, and the game's been played, will our love become a reality? Or are we just out of luck?

My Review:

The title in GR states its #2 in a series but on amazon it states its a stand alone. I usually go with GR.

It started out pretty good but then it seemed like the writing just got lazy after they got physical.

They didn’t seem to care about their careers at all, Bryce worked hard to get where he was and one would think with all that dedication, resisting someone he barely knew would be a cakewalk.  But he caved like a wet noodle, giving into his physical wants with really no remorse.  He gave up his conviction to wait till he retired, something he kept referenceing as a major reason to wait.  And after his best season, he just gave up on his career.  It didn’t make sense.  It was a bit pitiful to be honest.

And Amelia was no better, she gave in and didn’t think about what it meant for her career.  Especially after expressing she didn’t want to be known as a someone who just sleeps with players to forward her career, that’s exactly what she ended up doing.  It was very unprofessional.  What kind of woman jeopardizes her career for a roll in the hay?  And even if it was true love, he wouldn’t want to be the reason she didn’t get far, one would think.  She seems very immature for someone her age.

The romance went way to fast, and they seemed to confuse sex with love.  The L word was dropped too soon, something like three days or maybe a week at the longest.

I only finished it because I was hoping it would be redeemed in the end, but it wasn’t. Not gonna be reading more in this series.
