The Love Game






His challenge? Make her fall in love with him.

Her challenge? Play the player.

Until life changes the rules of the game.



Maddie Stevens hated Braden Carter on sight. Arrogant, egotistical, and the playboy of the University of California, Berkeley, he's everything her brother Pearce has taught her to despise. So why, when the girls challenge her to play the player, doesn't she say no? She doesn't know either.



Braden wanted fiery little Maddie the second he laid eyes on her - and he'd do anything to have her, hence why he's agreed to make her fall in love with him. After all, it's the only way he'll get what he wants. Sex.



But, as Braden discovers, there's more to the girl from Brooklyn than he ever imagined - and he can't help but care about the broken girl behind those pretty green eyes.



Maddie finds Braden isn't just a walking erection - he actually has feelings. He can be sweet, funny and his good looks don't exactly hurt. That means trouble - but when her brother Pearce turns up in Berkeley begging for her help, she realises Braden and Pearce aren't so alike anymore.



And maybe, just maybe, they're exactly what each other needs.

When the game begins I couldn't pick a side but I knew they both were gonna get hurt and I also knew it would be only one of them that got stung first. There were so many scenarios I had in my mind on how it was gonna go down and I was secretly hoping they would get drunk and hitched in Vegas before the game got out but no such luck. At the end I couldn't figure out why maddie was fighting it so much but I guess Braydon wasn't saying the right words. Hot steamy make out scenes and even hotter sex scenes. Great ending. The epilogue sets us up for the next book "playing for keeps" due out June 28th.  

Quotes:

"Braden Carter has got more charm than the Irish leprechauns-"

"Maddie Stevens, biting me? Yes. Fucking. Please."

"Did he play with the bait while he went fishing?"

"I'm focusing on the way Maddie's lips are around that pen. I'm jealous of that pen. Really fuckin' jealous."

"I've been so busy play the game. I didn't notice when the game played me."
