Major league player Chad Gamble has an image problem and needs to turn it around immediately or risk losing his contract with the Nationals. He gets stuck with a pit bull of a publicist who makes it her mission to straighten out his tarnished image by inventing a relationship and hiring an average girl to pose as his girlfriend. The lucky gal is none other than the same girl that ran out on him after a hot and heavy encounter. Bridget wants nothing to do with Chad after he blew her mind one wild night. She fears for her poor heart if she lets him, his good looks and charm anywhere near her. But she has little choice once the pit bull publicist gets her in her sights she's toast. The only thing left for Bridget to do is guard her heart and try to stay out of the bed of one legendary player .I read this book in one sitting. It isn't groundbreaking or exceptional but it is entertaining and engrossing. This author has a great contemporary voice, can write a hot love scene and while the book suffers from some editing issues and repetitive phrases, they are easily over looked. I loved the characters even bad boy man whore Chad manages to win the reader over with his charm and Bridget cones across as a realistic every day average girl. My only quibble was Bridget' s insecurities didn't seem to jive with the characterization of her as a body confident woman. Thankfully, the author didn't drag this out and it was clear Chad was crazy about her curviness. I am getting ready to download the other Gamble brother books and can't wait to see how the author brings a Happily Ever After to the pit bull publicist .Recommended
