"This game we're playing is sick and twisted."~Nick"I sort of like it"~Willow"You drunk, Will?"When football player Jared and Sheridan got together(Game for Marriage), they did not realize they would be throwing their two best friends Nick and Willow back together again. Six years ago Willow and Nick fell for each other. They were young and circumstances pulled them apart. And neither of them really got over it completely.Willow grew up the spoiled rich daughter of a controlling sports attorney. But now she is trying to be independent and continue growing her specialty catering business. Nick happens to be the owner of the rental space she really wants, so he devises a deal she cannot refuse. It is game on!Nick is sexy, cocky, flirty and fun. He is this big, popular football player, but is also vulnerable and sincere. You could tell he had regrets, true feelings, and wanted a real relationship. He set his mind on pursuing her and fighting for her no matter what (even though it meant also fighting WITH her).(Quote)Damn, he had it bad. There was no doubt in his mind that he would conquer her. Make her his once and for all. Game motherf***ing on.Nick Hamilton was bad for her. Unhealthy. An addiction.Willow is strong willed, stubborn, and determined to succeed. But she is also scared, insecure, and resistant. She felt he had burned her before, so it was understandable. She did not want to open herself up to hurt again. But she is a challenge he is determined to win.(Quote)Damn. Nick Hamilton and his charming, no-good ways. Her former lover and, if she were being honest, the first real love of her life always knew how to barge right back into her life and mess with her head.They fuss, they flirt, and they fight. Their conversations are sharp and witty. Their chemistry is combustible, but so are their daily interactions. It's all about advance, retreat, and advance again. I really liked them together. You could tell they had history and truly belonged together. But there was a lot of back and forth, and they had issues to work through.(Quote)He couldn't get this right with Willow no matter how hard he tried. He was sweet to her, and she wanted to kick his a**. He was rude to her, and she wanted to kick his a**. The woman had him coming and going, and he never knew where he was supposed to be next. It was frustrating as all get out.This was a sweet, funny, sassy read. I enjoy books about sports players. I loved seeing more with Jared and Sheridan from Game for Marriage. They are such a fun couple and provided more humor and support. This book made me frustrated, laugh, and swoon. It was written in both points of view which was truly needed since they issues sharing their feelings and thoughts. I devoured it in one sitting. This was another fun, steamy, and enjoyable installment in this series, but could also be read as stand alone.
