Dare To Tempt by Carly Phillips (Dare Nation #2)



❤❤❤❤❤

A sports romance that will keep you guessing! Dare To Tempt will captivate you from the start. As usual, having the extended Dare family you've come to love throughout both series, making several appearances throughout the story, is worth the read just for that alone.

Whether it's guessing who's trying to sabotage Damon's career or waiting to see what Evie's psycho ex will do next, I guarantee you won't be able to stop reading until the last page.

While it can be read as a stand alone, I highly recommend reading them in order so you can appreciate the characters even more. I've loved this series so much and they just get better with each book!

 💧 Drama
💋 Romance


SUMMARY:

He's a smooth talking jock in trouble.
She's the solution to his problems.
Love is the last thing they expected to find.

Damon Prescott had it all. Star quarterback. Money. Fame. Now? He's being accused of taking performance enhancing drugs and banned from the sport and team he loves.

Determined to prove he's innocent, he hires tough as nails private investigator, Evie Wolfe. She's able to bring a man to his knees with a glare, yet sensual in ways that take him off guard -- and she's everything Damon didn't know he needed.

Evie's used to men dismissing her, especially playboys like Damon Prescott so she's not buying the sexual lines he's trying to sell. She's with him to do a job, nothing more. But you know what they say about the best laid plans? Sometimes you end up between the sheets with an arrogant football player anyway.

But when the case is over, can Damon convince Evie she's the only woman for him or will she leave him tied up in love?

A Favor for a Favor by Helena Hunting (All In #2)



🏒🏒🏒🏒🏒

A Favor for a Favor will make you laugh from start to finish. I love the fact that Bishop and Stevie both lack verbal filters, so all of their interactions are highly entertaining!

Bishop Winslow is still working on building a relationship with his teammates, after the latest changes have been made. The last thing he needs is an injury that will put even more distance between them all, and risk his future with the team.

Stevie Bowman is starting her career, and doesn't want any favoritism based on her brothers popularity in the NHL. When a golden opportunity presents itself after a series of misunderstandings, Stevie has a proposition for Bishop.

From the first page, this story is filled with witty banter, fueled by the mutual hatred that the main characters have for one another, due to a lack of communication.

Daily underwear battles are just the beginning of their antics, along with an ex-boyfriend that won't accept it's over. I loved every minute of this book, it was highly entertaining and easily my favorite one in the All In series so far!

😄 Comedy
🏒 Sports Romance

Summary:

When I joined Seattle's NHL expansion team, I thought it was the start of something great. But nothing ever goes the way you expect. Take my introduction to my new neighbor. She came rolling in on the hot mess express at midnight, making a racket while she tried to get into my team captain's apartment. Did I mention that he's married to a woman who definitely was not her?

Imagine my surprise when I end up with an injury that has me out of the game for weeks, and she's the one to offer to help me. I should probably add that she's not the captain's mistress. She's his sexy, pastel-haired younger sister.

So we come up with an arrangement: she rehabs me so that I can get back on the ice sooner, and she can add a professional athlete that isn't her brother to her client list. Seems simple enough. As long as I keep my hands to myself and my hormones in check.

Crossing the Line by Kendall Ryan (Hot Jocks #4)


🏒🏒🏒🏒🏒

Crossing the Line is a friends to lovers dream! Making the best of a tough situation has never been so hot, especially when doing a favor for a friend, turns into so much more...

I loved that this had the typical characters in a role reversal, where the guy wanted more from a fling, but the girl is focused on her career and doesn't have time for anything serious.

Bailey and Asher will have you laughing til you swoon. Let alone the rest of Asher's lovable family, since they're entertaining enough just on their own! Such a great addition to the Hot Jocks series - a charming, quick and steamy read!

🏒 Sports Romance


Summary:

Recovering from a pulled groin muscle isn't exactly how I planned to spend my much-needed summer vacation.

But I'll admit, being nursed back to health by my gorgeous friend Bailey, who's just graduated from medical school, doesn't exactly  sound like a hardship.

We spend a week together at my family's beach house, a week of swimming and barbecues, a week of entertaining my little cousins and sleeping right across the hall from each other. A week of watching Bailey grow closer with my mom and sisters, and my wacky but lovable grandma. A week of enjoying Bailey tending to me -- which is saying something, because it involves a lot of shoving ice packs into my underwear and taping up sore muscles.

She's funny and kind, and after being myself for the first time in a long time, I find my walls come tumbling down. But when Bailey says she's not looking for a relationship, I'm bound and determined to be more than just the fun hookup who sprained his groin a second time -- this time with her.

Tangled Up in You by Samantha Chase (The Shaughnessy Brothers #7)



💜💜💜💜💜

Bobby and Teagan will have you believing in love after heartache. I loved the flashback in the beginning, with a young Bobby claiming a favor.

The story starts with Bobby's struggle after suffering a gunshot wound and not sure he'd be able to recover enough to be given active duty again. When he finds the perfect distraction in Teagan Shaughnessy, you just want to erase all the miles between them so they can be together.

Teagan has a crushing story of her own...when her fiance dies serving their country, she's left a single mom since pregnancy and her first priority has always been her son Lucas.

She never thought she could have those feelings for someone again, but doesn't want to put her heart out there, especially for someone lives far away.

Their journey to each other is inspiring. The kids and family encouragement (meddling) will keep you in stitches, and you'll find a permanent smile on your face while reading!

Summary:
One fateful night Bobby Hannigan sustains a gunshot wound that could end his career as a police officer. If that's taken from him, he doesn't know what he'll do. The only ray of hope is Teagan Shaughnessy - a kindhearted single mom who understands his struggles...

Teagan and her young son have just moved back to the Carolina coast to be near family. When she meets Bobby, the timing feels wrong, but everything else feels oh-so-right. Bobby and Teagan each had plans for their own futures. But they're finding that those plans are meaningless if they can't find a way to be together...
