Brett Attwoods is on his way back to the NFL, except the team he wants to play for may not take him after a stint of questionable choices. Siena Pippen, fresh of the break up of her NFL boyfriend, isn't looking for a relationship, much less with someone so drawn in the spotlight. But when a social media post makes it seem like the two are dating, they decide to lean into the image to help both of their lives.
First and foremost, this book was so fun. I really like Only in Your Dreams, but I may like this one just a bit better. Brett and Siena were hot from the get go and I loved that. You can feel the attraction without it feeling forced and I couldn't wait to see how they fell for each other.
Both Siena and Brett have gone through tough periods that make them second guess their worth. Seeing both of them care for one another and see each other is charming to read. The way Brett showed Siena love and reassurance, even when she was willing to continue to "play pretend," ugh I love. He was a man OBSESSED with his girl and I wouldn't want it any other way. Also these two were so hot? I was unprepared for how spicy these two were, but it did A LOT for their dynamic and how much you wanted to root for them to be in a real relationship.
Such a strong second book, I can't wait to read more if she continues this series!
