First of all, I want to warn my fellow romance readers that there are a LOT of distracting typos in this book. Normally, while I’m a complete grammar nazi in my daily life(comes with being a language teacher, I suspect), I am nonetheless usually able to ignore the occasional typo in my romances, mainly because I don’t tend to read them all THAT closely. But in this book, there were enough that it bothered even me and took me out of the story on occasion. […]

Once again I want to thank the lovely Mrs. Julien, whose generous gift of an Amazon voucher made it possible for me to buy this book. NFL player Ethan “Dex” Dexter is known to his friends and team mates as “the Wise One”. He’s quiet, observant, focused on his career and not really concerned with dating, or really all that bothered about the fact that he’s still a virgin at 24. The only woman he’s interested in is the bubbly and vivacious Fiona Mackenzie, sister-in-law […]

4.5 stars Gray Grayson does not have female friends, he has former and future conquests. The closest thing he has to a female friend is his best friend Drew‘s new girlfriend. That’s it.

I neither know nor care about American football, but this book was entertaining

Anna was either bullied or completely ignored in high school. With the exception of a few loyal friends, she was pretty much a social outcast. She has worked hard to become comfortable with herself and her body image. So when her college’s star quarterback addresses her as “Big Red” in one of their shared classes, he instantly earns her animosity. Drew Baylor is tall, gorgeous, extremely athletic and popular in all areas of college life. As Anna just wants to keep her head down and […]
