Book Review | Play Maker by Katie McCoy

James Martin aka The Play Maker: international soccer sensation, owner of a drool-worthy body, and panty-dropping man whore.

He's the perfect one night stand.

And by one night stand I mean two night stand.

And by two night stand I mean three night stand.

Nicole Grant is living every girl's fantasy: a rendezvous with the sexiest Brit on either side of the pond. It's just one night, and that's fine with her. With her busy work schedule and a brother she's devoted to, flings are all Nicole has time for. No complicated feelings and no strings attached. Just hot sex.

James Martin is used to scoring -- on and off the field. His prowess in the game is rivaled only by his reputation in the tabloids. But after Nicole gives him the best hookup of his life, he experiences something new: a woman who isn't throwing herself at his feet, who knows all he has to offer and is still keeping her distance. Apparently there's a first time for everything.

James can't get Nicole out of his head. She's funny and she's irresistible. Nicole can't James off her mind. He's good hearted and he's sexy. Will their standoff end in a draw, or can this one night stand kick off something real?

Nicole Grant wasn’t the commitment type – heck no. She has a lot on her plate, and the only thing she can offer to someone was a night or two, no strings, no commitments, no cuddling and no sleepovers. She doesn’t do complicated, her life is way more than that. She has a brother to care for.

James Martin’s reputation precedes him. He’s not only a good soccer player on the field, it is also rumored that he was one heck of a player off the field too. Who can resist someone as hot as James? Certainly not Nicole. One explosive night with him was not enough.  So  when one night stand becomes two, then becomes three, and then becomes something else, things are different. James offered the world at her feet, and for the first time, someone was taking care of her and not the other way around.

Would Nicole be willing to risk her heart for someone she wasn’t sure staying? Can he accept her and her baggage?

You’d love them both – they’re amazing, but not perfect. They have their own shortcomings, but totally forgivable considering how great they are. I mean, Nicole could just drop the responsibility and get on with her life – enjoy every moment of it, and yet she chose to stay and take care of her brother. He was important to her and it was the only thing that she won’t compromise. As for James, he understood, and he will do everything to have the girl. He has a big heart, big enough for her family. He knew how important they are to her, and he was willing to compromise – how freaking incredible is that?! He knew how to break the wall that surrounded her heart.

I enjoyed reading this book – the sex was mind-blowing, but the characters are just as interesting as well, and I’m not just talking about the main characters. The supporting characters are pretty much fascinating to. It was fun, exciting, and I love watching James trying to win our girl over. He knew how to woo her totally! If you would love to read a book that’s sexy, not that heavy and totally entertaining – you need to give this one a try.

This is my first Katie McCoy read, and I’m sure it won’t be my last.
