New York Times bestselling author Nalini Singh brings you a sinfully playful contemporary romance between two sworn enemies turned partners in crime...
Daniel Esera is a young god on the rugby field, a sexy and charming man who's got the world at his feet. There's just one problem: his sudden potent attraction to his number one nemesis--Catie River. No. Just no. Not happening.
Catie River is on her way to Paralympic gold, and she's not about to allow Danny "Hotshot" Esera to derail her plans. Too bad her body isn't cooperating. Even worse? Her heart might be coming along for the ride. No. Nope. Never.
The pair are united in their desire to remain enemies... until a stranger's reckless action threatens both their careers. Now, the only way out for Catie and Danny is to pretend to be in a relationship. How bad can it be? They're adults in full control of their hormones and their hearts. There will be no kissing. No PDA. And definitely no falling in love.
Let the games begin.
My Review:
I utterly loved reading this book! I love her writing so much, and we got to see Catie and Danny before, as kids, so I knew that their story was going to be epic, and it was, I had such a great time watching them as romance bloomed!
Their contrary relationship was so fun to read! They've been rivals for so long-in the family get togethers-and snarky comments on each others Instagram. So they have a lot of history before they're thrown into this fake dating situation. Eek, the tension and the feels, I loved it!
Danny has issues with having so many successful older brothers, feeling like he doesn't measure up, that he doesn't have this grand thing to offer to the world. And Catie has communication and trust issues stemming from her dad. It was really great to watch them support the other.
One thing that I love about this series is that there really isn't any near-the-climax breakup. There's issues, there's drama, but they work though them together. And I really enjoyed how they worked it out in this book!
Absolutely loved this book, and if there is more in the series (or more likely, world) I'm going to read it!
