Review: Playing the Field (Los Angeles Devils #1) by Stacy Travis


Playing the Field, the first installment of the Los Angeles Devils series by Stacy Travis is LIVE NOW!

Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DZQ6DG96


A delicious Forced proximity, Brother’s Best Friend, Sports romance by bestselling author, Stacy Travis.

I didn’t expect my first week with the Devils soccer team to involve saving a career.

But when the team’s hot-headed center back—aka my brother’s best friend, Hunter Reyes—blows up in front of management, it’s my job as the head Data Analyst to keep him on the field.

That’s as close as I plan on getting to the gorgeous, bad-boy soccer god until he shows up at the house I’m temporarily sharing with my brother, needing a place to stay.

Hunter is the epitome of the grumpy, ridiculously muscular, and infuriatingly confident man fans love. I’m the girl who color-codes data sets and stress-bakes muffins. We are opposites in every way. We shouldn’t share the same Wi-Fi, let alone an address.

But late nights with spreadsheets turn into late nights sharing takeout.

Eye rolls turn into inside jokes. And every time his hand brushes mine, I swear the air between us crackles like lightning before a storm.

But he’s my brother’s best friend. A player on the team I work for. And completely, absolutely not my type. Too bad my heart can’t compute our differences.

Best friend’s sister. Forced proximity. Workplace sparks. And a slow-burn attraction that refuses to stay buried.

MY REVIEW


Gracie learned her lesson about not letting a man derail her career. So now that she's a data analyst for the LA Devils, there will be no more problems, no more men. Especially not her brother's best friend, Hunter, whose own career is the one that needs to be saved. But when Hunter needs a place to crash while his house is rebuilt, and he ends up living with her brother and her, Gracie starts to see a whole different side of him, a side she's falling in love with.


Hunter always wanted his friend's older sister to notice him as more than just her brother's friend, but she barely gave him the time of day. He didn't realize she more than noticed him, but just thought he was the one who didn't see her as more. Now that he's living with Gracie and her brother, he's going to shoot his shot, and make sure Gracie knows they belong together.


Hunter may have been a bad boy on the pitch, but inside he's a total cinnamon roll who likes books and his friend's smart af older sister. How could I (and Gracie) have not fallen head over heels for him? Their chemistry is so freakin hot, and they ended up being so perfect for each other, being each other's steadfast rocks. I love this introduction to the Los Angeles Devils, and I'm so excited to see which player falls next.

Blog Tour & Review: The Billionaire's Fake Fiancée by Annika Martin

The Billionaire's Fake Fiancée by Annika Martin Release Date: April 28th The Billionaire's Fake Fiancée, a sexy romantic comedy by New York Times bestselling author Annika Martin. I’m no Prince Charming, and the last thing I want is a Cinderella. My instructions were simple: scour the city for a fake fiancée who’s not my type at all. Have her on my jet Monday morning, dressed appropriately for a yacht vacation. I need a woman believable enough to convince a certain client that I’ve changed my playboy ways…yet nothing like the supermodels and socialites I usually have on my arm. Somebody too annoying to tempt me—no emotional entanglements, thank you very much. This is business only. If she’s unfazed by my looks and wealth, all the better. Should be easy. Right? Apparently not, because my people go and hire Tabitha. My hairdresser. What were they thinking? Yes, I said annoying, but I didn’t mean her, the most frustrating woman in the world. Tabitha is sunshiny. She has a pet ha...
