Risky Play by Rachel Van Dyken (Red Card #1)


🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

Rachel Van Dyken does a marvelous job of making you fall in love with the characters, then in the next second, wanting to wring their necks while they redeem themselves in your heart.

The story starts off with Mackenzie Dupont being left at the altar. She's saved herself for her husband, who's been her best friend since birth, but there's no real sparks or love. When she goes on her honeymoon six months later, she has a brush with death and decides to finally start living her life - including a one-night stand with a handsome stranger.

Slade Rodriguez can't resist Mackenzie and wants more than one night with her, but when his life is turned on it's axis, he blames the easiest scapegoat, Mack.

Through a series of events, Mack ends up being Slade's assistant, and watching him be a tyrant to her is heart-wrenching, but not dragged out (which I appreciated).

Groveling and witty banter are at the core of this story, while it's spun with back stories and twists you won't see coming. I'm enamored with the characters and can't wait for the next book in the Red Card series!

I started Risky Play at bedtime, thinking I'd read a chapter or two...instead, I stayed up until almost 3am to finish it in one sitting! Definitely one of my favorite reads of 2019 so far!
