THE PLAYS WE FAKE by Brooke O'Brien


⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

MY THOUGHTS AFTER READING...

“𝙏𝙚𝙡𝙡 𝙢𝙚 𝙄 𝙘𝙖𝙣 𝙝𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧... 𝙏𝙚𝙡𝙡 𝙢𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪’𝙡𝙡 𝙖𝙡𝙬𝙖𝙮𝙨 𝙗𝙚 𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙚, 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙄 𝙘𝙖𝙣 𝙡𝙤𝙫𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙡𝙞𝙠𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙮 𝙙𝙖𝙮 𝙤𝙛 𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙡𝙞𝙫𝙚𝙨.”


Brooke O'Brien was a new author for me and apart from this, I've only ever read Beckham's book. I signed up for this because I immensely enjoyed the first book.

Hayes and Everly were an unlikely pair but it works. Their chemistry from the outset was palpable. I was so giddy for these two! 

I always enjoy reading sports romance especially when it's new adult/college. Of course the storyline isn't something I haven't read before but I was riveted from start to finish. I wanted more...  

This book was more swoon-worthy than the first one—at least for me. Love how Hayes showed his vulnerable side the from the start... love how protective he is... and love how these two were honest with each other and did not play games... there was just the right amount of angst. 

I can't wait for the next book!
