Review / Blog Tour: Exploring the Rules (The Dating Playbook #4) by Mariah Dietz

Exploring the Rules, an all-new swoon-worthy enemies-to-lovers standalone romance from USA Today bestselling author Mariah Dietz is available now!

Chloe Robinson is determined to be more spontaneous, exciting, and ‘fun’—whatever that means. Her resolve is put to the test when she learns her twin sister has arranged for them to return to their junior year at Brighton University with a road trip across the country with their best friend, Cooper, and the one person Chloe works to avoid at all costs: Tyler Banks.

Tyler Banks is the heir to Banks Luxury Resorts and Hotels, and this year’s “star football player.” Tyler’s life and future appear bright and endless as the universe, except, his life is in a constant state of balance and currently his greatest balancing act is allowing Chloe to ignore him and believe he’s her enemy when she’s becoming his reason to succeed.

Two and a half weeks.
Seven cities.
And one game of truth or dare that is about to expose everything.

Excerpt

He stops in front of me, dropping his dilated eyes to my mouth, and for a second, I’m so sure he’s going to step forward and kiss me that I’d bet my private invitation to the planetarium next week on the fact. I’ve been on the receiving end of this look before, with the same guy. I’ve seen this exact brand of need and desire darkening his gaze when he invades my space and pushes every limit. I’m so confident he will kiss me that I tilt my chin up to receive him, regretting the instant that I do, because it’s not a thought or a need that dictates the movement—it’s him.

He releases a quiet noise that sounds so much like a scoff. I instantly pull back, humiliation already tinting my cheeks.

“Maybe next time you’ll get your wish.”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” I tell him.

His eyes are sharp as they come down on me, a wolf smile. “You’re a terrible liar.” He turns on a heel and heads toward the stairs that lead to the VIP section, taking them two and three at a time.

Anger quickly follows embarrassment like a shot of liquor, contorting the memory and making everything sting as I wait for Nessie to return.

MY REVIEW

A road trip with Tyler is the very last thing Chloe wants to be doing. Oh sure, her twin Vanessa and her bestie Cooper are coming along and can provide a buffer, but she's avoided Tyler for a reason. So to be stuck in a car with him for a road trip...yeah no. But it becomes apparent these two have not only history, but blazing hot chemistry that will be impossible to ignore. Will the British football god and the list loving astonomy student make it work when he isn't going to be in the US for much longer?

As enemies to lovers go, this is pretty great. Tyler is straight up British swoon and swagger with a really tender heart. Chloe is adorable with her lists and her space facts, and Vanessa and Cooper are equally awesome. I will definitely be on the lookout for more of this series and more from Mariah.
