GAME FOR TROUBLE was so much fun to read! It gave me exactly what I look for in my steamy reads. Hot football player: check. Hot sex scenes: check. Second chance at love: check. Perfect recipe for a great read. Am I right?!I have to say that I was curious about Nick and Willow from the first book. I had a feeling that there may be something going between them. Turns out I was right. So, now here we are with this fiery couple. The story starts out with Willow and Nick meeting to negotiate on a property that Nick owns. Willow wants the space for her catering business. Well, Nick just wants Willow. So, he's going to play a little hard ball with her. He tells her he'll agree to leasing her the property if she agrees to go on dates with him. Willow wants the space bad enough that she agrees. Of course, it's not really a hardship to date a sexy guy, but these two have a history.I think the fact that they had history is what I liked the most about this couple. We get bits and pieces of what happened between them and what caused their break-up throughout the book and honestly, I would have loved seeing flashback bits of them. But, I also appreciated the focus on the relationship in the now. They've both grown so much and well...they're older and more mature. Nick is definitely more prepared to balance a relationship and his career. And Willow, she's more settled and more independent. The timing may have been off for them in the past, but one thing is certain; they have a connection that can't be denied.Overall, I really enjoyed Game For Trouble. Nick is one yummy dude and there were a lot of ways that I could relate to Willow. I loved seeing Jared and Sheridan again too. I love that they're all best friends. I'm also anxious to get to the next book in the series. I think it's going to be a good one! If you are a fan of steamy romance, check this series out!
