Play Me

4 Stars!

It took a little time for me to get into this one but I ended up really liking it! It's a bit of a slow burn and Xander and Courteney's relationship is hot but volatile. It was fun getting to know Courteney and her friends. I liked getting to see why Xander was so distracted in Hot Mess. He definitely grew on me. Looking forward to DJ Summer and Flynn's story!

This was a super sweet read!

I loved Jake, he was a sweet and sexy chef covered in tats...yummy! I was worried at first that I wouldn't like Ella, for a short bit at the beginning she came across a bit prissy and cold, but that changed quickly and I ended up liking her.

The plot flowed nicely and there were some laugh out loud moments (the veggie pun discussion was HILARIOUS) I am not sure I would go so far as to say this was a “slow burn” but you don't get any sexy times until slightly over halfway through the book. It's very low angst, with only one incident near the end that wraps up fairly quickly, and yes, I shed a tear or two! lol The secondary characters where interesting, and amusing at times. I am hoping that Dakota will get her own book sometime soon!

My only negative with this book was I really wanted an epilogue. I wanted to see them married with babies and where they were at in their careers. It felt like it ended rather abruptly after the I Love You's were said Like I said though, maybe Dakota is going to get a book and we will see more of this couple in that book?? Fingers crossed in any case!

Overall I really enjoyed this one, it's sweet, it's low angst, no OW drama...perfect!
