Rating: 5 out of 5

This is the first book of the Philadelphia Patriots series. I, unfortunately, read the second one first because it was a freebie for Kindle. So I already knew how this book would end and knew some of the characters already. I thought this was a great romance, suspense, steamy and intriguing book. I really liked the strength and convictions of the two main characters, Maddie and Jake. Both have really strong work ethics and have worked hard to get where they are in their careers. They also come from entirely different backgrounds. All of this makes a very interesting relationship between the two of them. Adding in the stress of trying to conceal their romance from the league and other team players. I especially liked the fact that although they were attracted to each other, they weren't in bed into the first 5 pages. The romance was beautiful and the story line strong. When they have to handle the fact that one of the teams player is up over his head with a dangerous bookie from his gambling addiction and so in debt from betting on games and even his own teams games, they are at odds with each other on how to deal with this. The only thing I would have liked to have seen, was exactly how things ended with the bookie and the player in the end. It was just sort of swept away. This book is for mature readers and it has detailed sexual scenes and "colorful" language.
