Review: Play – Holly S. Roberts

When Killian MacGregor, the hottest quarterback in the NFL, eyes the perfect pair of female legs, he spends an hour tracking the gorgeous woman in a room filled with rowdy teammates until one gets out of line.

Rebecca Cavanaugh, a long distance runner for the state team, intimidates boys and men with her quick wit and majestic height. The pre-season jock party isn’t her scene, but she’s roped into attending to provide her sister a sober ride home.

Hiding in the kitchen to avoid the athletic sex fest, a drunken thug forces Rebecca to her knees, and waves a giant ding-dong in her face. Before Rebecca can extricate herself from the hairy situation, an unknown champion saves the night. When Killian assists Rebecca off the floor, she’s stunned into silence while staring at the sexiest man alive.

Will Killian’s bad boy rep and Rebecca’s need for commitment, make this the most impossible “Play” of the season? Or, will Killian’s haunting past and need for victory destroy the most important game of his life?

“Play” is intended for readers 18+. Enjoy with caution… this book contains adult situations, erotic sex, and more balls than a girl knows what to do with.

Reviewer’s Thoughts

PLAY is an exciting story about a shy woman who dates a hot NFL player. Rebecca Cavanaugh meets Killian MacGregor, the starting quarterback for the Scorpions football team at a party. Killian and Rebecca start to date, although the football season consumes most of Killian’s time.

Rebecca is surprised when Killian pays attention to her and can’t understand what he sees in her. She continually has doubts about herself and their relationship. Rebecca is uncomfortable with her body because she is so tall and thin and she has never been the type of girl guys pursue. I admired Rebecca because she is smart, hard working and attends college on a track scholarship.

Killian is cocky and used to having women throw themselves at him. He also has a temper and secrets he doesn’t share with Rebecca. Killian is attracted to Rebecca’s shyness and vulnerability and what I liked most about him was his caring and sensitive side. He continually compliments Rebecca and tries to build up her confidence. He is an alpha male control freak and Rebecca rarely questions his demanding ways.

Holly Roberts writes an engaging story and there is sizzling chemistry between Killian and Rebecca. In the beginning of this story I wasn’t sure if I liked Killian and Rebecca, but they both evolve as the story progresses. Can falling in love change a person?
