Book Review: Playing Dirty by Mickey Miller

I received an ARC of Playing Dirty from the author in exchange for my honest review.
This book is considered a sports romance with a HEA ending. Jake is appears to be a cocky egotistical drinking playboy baller. But that's just this image people want to see. Andrea is young but not sports illiterate. She is a college softball player who is working for a PR company charged with cleaning up Jake's image. These two have such amazing chemistry on the pages, that you quickly want to know what happens next. I loved the witty report between these two. Plus I like that Andrea is smart, and knows her sports. But also that Jake appreciates a women like her, instead of wanting what society thinks should be beautiful. Such a great story with amazing writing. I actually found myself chuckling when I remembered this book was written by a guy. Stereotypical, yes, but such a breath of fresh air! LOVED this book, and can't wait to see what Mickey writes next.

Blog Tour with Book Review~Gunslinger by Lisa Lang Blackeney

Title: Gunslinger

Author: Lisa Lang Blakeney

Genre: Sports Romance

Release: August 8, 2016

Goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/31245373-gunslinger

Synopsis:

I hate sports, and he is football royalty. I like quiet and predictable, but he's sex and swagger personified. I didn't particularly care for Saint Stevenson the first moment I laid eyes on him, but his warped brain seemed to process our initial meeting as foreplay.

I have a meticulous five year plan in place for myself and my career, but now this huge, cocky, self-absorbed quarterback who I've been assigned to at work is seriously f*cking it up.

He's the ultimate player on and off the field, and it doesn't make any sense that I'm falling hard and fast for the arrogant baller; but there doesn't seem to be anything about our love story that makes any sense at all.

Author Bio:

Lisa Lang Blakeney grew up an only child gorging herself on daytime soaps, night time dramas, and romance novels. She writes steamy new adult contemporary romance featuring strong alpha men and the smart women they seek to claim. She tends to favor continuing storylines and sagas, although she will write a standalone novel when inspiration strikes. Her novels will probably always contain something a bit taboo, lots of dirty language, mature content, and happily ever afters... so

be warned:)

I received a copy of Gunslinger, in exchange for my honest review.

I'm  not a huge sports fan, very much like our lead character Sabrina. But you don't need to know anything about football, because Lisa Lang Blackeney helps us understand it all!

This book was funny and I loved the chemistry between Saint and Sabrina. She wants Jason, her work college for the last three years. Of course its a crush that isn't reciprocated until she starts an affair with hunky quarterback Saint. Saint can't believe his luck. The night he is jilted at the alter, her finds Sabrina drunk, and takes her to her hotel room. Fast forward three years and he meets her again in a restaurant, but she has no clue that he's this mega millionaire football star. She could care less about any of that, and so he  is intrigued by her.

I loved the build up for this book, the only down side I thought was the middle of their romance, seemed to be fast forwarded. I was hoping to really feel them fall in love, but it seemed the beginning, where they were interested but fighting, that the book progressed at a nice comfortable pace, but after their first time together it fast forward to being head over heels in love. The book could of been a little longer to see that progression, but that's just my wishful hope to get more of their story.

Definitely a great read! 4 Stars

Author Bio:
“Mother, reader, storyteller - ME Carter never set out to write books. But when a friend
practically forced a copy of Twilight into her hands, the love of the written word she had
lost as a child was rekindled. With a story always rolling around in her head, it should
come as no surprise that she finally started putting them on paper. She lives in Texas
with her four children, Mary, Elizabeth, Carter and Bug, who sadly was born long after
her pen name was created, and will probably need extensive therapy because of it.”
