First we were friends. Then we were roommates. Now I want more… What can I say about Chess Copper? The woman is capable of bringing me to my knees. I know this about five minutes after getting naked for her. No one is more surprised than me. The prickly photographer my team hired to shoot our annual charity calendar isn’t my usual type. She’s defense to my offense, a challenge at every turn. But when I’m with her, all the regrets and darkness goes away. She makes life fun. I want to know Chess, be close to her. Which is a bad idea. Chess is looking for a relationship. I’ve never given a woman more than one night. But when fate leaves Chess without a home, I step up and offer her mine. We’re roommates now. Friends without benefits. But it’s getting harder to keep our hands off each other. And the longer we live together the more I realize she’s becoming my everything. Trick is… Now that I’ve made her believe I’m a bad bet, how do I convince her to give this player a true shot at forever? Review by Lorena Well what can I say, other than this book was freaking fantastic! I loved the slow pace the relationship between Finn and Chess took. They didn't rush into anything and became fast friends before they jumped into anything else. The fact that this book had a little bit of everything is what had me from beginning to end. The emotions, the laughter the love it all perfectly evolved into this love story. At first Finn seemed like he was an arrogant NFL player, but in the end, he turned out to prove my behind wrong! I'm sure if you pick this book up, you'll fall in love with the characters as much as I have. I haven't had the pleasure to read the other books in the series, but now that I had a little taste of what a great author and writer Ms. Callihan is, I'm sure going to look into the rest of this series! A major 4.5 star hangover! ABOUT THE AUTHOR Kristen Callihan is an author because there is nothing else she’d rather be.
