***5 ‘Fairies for the Win’ Stars***
The first time I read Back in the Game (Team Player Anthology) I had noted down just how much fun it was to read. It had a good dose of smexy, some great single parent swooniness and whole bunch of flirty and laugh out loud bantering. And the same held true the second time around. It’s a fun, quick read with just the right amount of smexy, swoony mixed in to keep things interesting.
I fell into full on adoration of Calder from the opening paragraph. I mean, how can you not love a man who will morph into “Wanda” for his little girl? You can’t. But outside of being an amazing father, he’s a really good man. He’s that endearing mix of alpha and vulnerable that just makes you melt. Rachel is sassy and has quite a bit of moxie and I love how quick her mind is. The things she came up with had me crushing on her hard.
Though things happened quite quickly between them, it didn’t bother me in the least and a lot of it had to do with just how well their personalities matched and flowed together. There was no holding back and they fed off of each other’s quirks and energy in the best of ways. Their road was pretty easy, but the little road block they faced was dealt with well.
Not to sound like a broken record *smirk* but this was just a fun read. So if you’re looking for a quick, sports romcom then this is a definite must read!

Once she started commuting for an hour and twenty minutes every day to work for three years, she began to have conversations play in her head, real life, deep male voices and dainty lady coos kind of conversations. Perturbed and confused, she decided to either see a therapist about the hot and steamy voices running through her head or start writing them down. She decided to go with the cheaper option and started writing… enter her first novel, Caught Looking.
Now you can find the spicy, most definitely on the border of lunacy, kind of crazy lady residing in Colorado with the love of her life and her five, furry four legged children, hiking a trail or hiding behind shelves at grocery stores, wondering what kind of lube the nervous stranger will bring home to his wife. Oh and she loves a good boob squeeze!
