My friend Jennifer first suggested this series to me, when I went on a bad-boy rock star kick (wait!! I’m still on that kick – BIG TIME! I’m just having a harder time finding a new one that makes me crazy-obsessed like the past ones have…). Anyway, Jennifer messaged me saying:
“I’m thinking you need to check out some “bad boy” athletes… been reading some great reveiws on this series by Jaci Burton “Play by Play” the first book is The Perfect Play.”
Those are some HOT covers! What cinched it for me was a second recommendation by Stacy:
“These are NOT alternative but erotic!”
About the series (as per the author):
“The Play by Play series is a steamy, sexy peek into the world of sports as seen through the Riley family. Mick Riley is a professional football player, his brother Gavin plays baseball. Their sister Jenna runs the family sports bar and doesn’t want anything to do with any guy involved with sports. Their parents are heavily involved in their lives and it’s a loving, tight knit family… Hot, sexy, determined to have it all—their successes and their failures pave the way to the biggest win of their lives—that elusive happily ever after.”

Oh man…. I’ve been looking out for the Jaci Burton – and the Shayla Black – books, but they’re not available in my region, for Kindle (I live down under). Boo hoo!!
Any ideas if they’re available via other Kindle-friendly retailers?
Those are mighty “big ” hands he has there***** blushing*******
ok i know you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover… b u t … hot dammm… i have to try this !!! lol… My dreams will be awesome with such covers alone !!
Jane- I live in Oz too and sadly I haven’t been able to find them on any other sites so I have got the books instead and let me say they are HOT and totally worthy of the extra expense! Although according to amazon we can’t even buy the book of the most recent one yet, hope this helps 🙂
Thanks Penny, what a complete pain!! I’m trying to find a workaround for Amazon… I’ll let you know if I do 🙂
I don’t care if the story isin’t good I’ll buy them just to drool on the covers!! 😉
I loved her Rescue Me book. Have these on my to read list. Jane can you borrow them from someone in the U.S. I think I have a few of these.
Lol, you girls are funny! I need to wipe the drool off my keyboard!
I’ve read the first two and your friend is right. I think you will definitely enjoy 😉 although anything you decide to read post Christian Grey wont live up to expectations. That’s the rut I’m in. I’ve read 3 books this week and they seemed way underwhelming. lol If you’re like me and always looking for something to read, I read Dante’s Inferno a couple weeks ago and I think it’s a “Maryse” book.
Thank you for that suggestion Rebecka 😉 *hug*
Don’t short-circuit your keyboard Brandie!! How are you gonna comment without it?
Jane I feel your pain. There’s a book I want to read but can’t get the e-book ’cause it’s UK only. BUMMER!!! So I ordered the print version… *sigh*
and to all of the cover-worshippers… right??! This series has some serious steam right off the bat!
Scratch that … Gabriel’s Inferno
so i read the first two and have to say that i liked them a lot! they both had me pulled in and now i cant watch football without thinkin of mick. lol
i havent read the fifty books yet but i need to! lol they are next
I’m loving this series … being a huge sports fan. It’s amazing.
The Alpha Males are awesome. The story lines for each of the books deals with real relationship issues. Jaci Burton rocks. I’m a huge fan. I’m on the fourth book in two days. I will start the Wild Riders series .. next any comments on that series ? Georgia
If you are looking for some bad boy/ hero novels check out Kallypso Master’s series Maters at Arms. I have fallen in love with this series and all are available for kindle and in print. Her characters take you thru hell and back with the challenges of life.
Thanks Heather!! YES I have the first two in that series and they are on my TBR list. Thank you!!
