The definition of tall, dark, and handsome. I don’t think I’ve ever been this wildly attracted to someone at first glance. There are a million reasons why things between the two of us would never work out. But, the universe keeps throwing us together and Jameson seems hell-bent on proving me wrong. Jameson I’m in town for one reason and one reason only: recover in the off season so I can go back next year ready to dominate on the field.

My Review:

The angst! The drama! Be still my reality-television-loving heart. I loved Daphne right from the beginning. I found it very easy to connect with her feeling like a misfit among the people she should have had the most in common with. For the most part, I really liked Jameson too. His biggest jerk moment made me question that feeling, but I could understand what was driving his behavior. I also really liked that this was a slower burn romance. We got to watch Daphne and Jameson learning how to be friends while they were trying to resist being set up together before finally giving in to the chemistry between them. Now that it's over, I'm desperate to know more about the family dynamic that landed them in this situation in the first place.

I received a complimentary advanced copy of this book through Indie Pen PR.
