He’s settled back in Scotland and enjoying his football career more than ever. Now, he’s focused on Playing to Win, and not just any end of season trophy. No, the trophy he wants more than anything is Jessica.
Jessica Taylor, once again, has to rebuild her life after her ex-boyfriend attacked her, and deal with the aftermath of his death. Her focus is on regaining her strength and determination, and with help and support from Fletcher, she’s certain to find light at the end of a dark tunnel.
Not everything goes to plan for the young couple, and it’s not long before Jessica thinks it’s a bad idea to make plans for the future. After all, the last plans she had for her life were cruelly snatched away. Fletcher has to prove to Jessica that he has changed from his wild days as a player off the field. Is love going to be enough to keep them together, or will they allow the past to come between them?

Review
This begins right where book 1 ended, which is a good
thing considering how that ended abruptly. Jessica has been thru h**l
and back with her ex. She got a long road of healing ahead of her. I
honestly felt sorry for Fletcher. He had no clue what was even going on
until after his game. He stayed by Jess's side throughout it all.
They have a lots of ups and downs but never forget that they love each
other. I think they have real chemistry but seriously needs to work on
communicating more. A lot of their issues would be solved by just being
open and honest with each other. Fletcher is a great character and has
shown so much maturity since the first book. He has things that come
up but he deals with them like an adult. I seriously loved how this book
ends and with 2 years passing they are still in love and acting like
teenagers. They battled their demons and moved on to live their happy
ending with so much love. I devoured these two books and is really
hoping Logan and Lee get a book.. (hint hint lol)

Review
I love a good romance sports book and this one is definitely on the
list. Yes it has a little bit of sports but mostly revolves around
Jessica and Fletcher. When we first meet Fletcher, he's a lost
footballer, with a bad reputation, who's come back home to make a
decision. He knows he wants a change but not sure where yet. Jessica's
first meet wasn't a good one at all. She had just gotten beat up, lost
her baby and is majorly depressed. With the help of her best friend,
parents and Fletcher, she starts to get a boost of confidence. She goes
in baby steps and just when things seem to be going well, bam! it all
goes south again. This book deals a lot with spousal abuse and no it's
not Fletcher. Jessica has an ex who just won't stop. He refuses to stop
loving her and wants her back. He'll go to any lengths to do just that.
It may sound weird but I loved the twists and turns, the will she or
won't she date him or the why the hell she hasn't jumped him by now in
this book. I adore Lee and Logan, they both deal some tough love to
their friends but it's only to get them to see how good they are
together. Be prepared to have book 2 close after you finish this book,
you're gone need to see how it all plays out. This is a sexy, emotional
and hilarious at times book. I'm so glad I took a chance on a new
author, I found a book that I love! Onto the next book!
