Win or Lose...
Winning is important but this is championship quarterback Chase Layne's last chance for glory. All he wants for his final season is to win the Superbowl. But dreams of ending his career on a high will be sacked if his soon to be ex-wife has her way. She and her new boyfriend have plans to ruin Chase in a media smear, stealing everything he's worked to achieve. He just has to show the press he's still in control and on top of his game, in business and his private life.
It's How You Play the Game...
Avery Banks knows all about being played. Life has done that to her for years now and she's tired of being the loser. All she needs is a big score...a job paying enough money to allow her stop turning tricks for good and to get her sister into rehab. Then it happens! She gets the dream job pretending to be a star football player's girlfriend. All she has to do is make him look good, help him keep up his All American Boy image for the next few weeks. Easy, right? Except her sister sees an even bigger payoff: Blackmailing Chase.
As Chase and Avery play offense to everyone trying to bring them down, Avery must also face the hard truth: she's made the ultimate rookie mistake...falling in love with a client.
Standalone sports romance with an HEA. You don't have to read the other books in The Escort Collection, but you totally should!

Good read.
Great book with great ending, not sex work positive
So I really enjoyed this book and this love story. Really fun read with good pacing and it does the escort trope without getting TOO into the life of sex work. It focuses more on the romance. The timeline they fall in love is very short, but I can live with that. I also thought Eric was a hilarious comedic relief character.
My only problem was just the obvious lack of respect for sex workers. This book doesn’t believe sex work is real work and doesn’t respect a person’s bodily autonomy. What Jenny says at the end about there only being two reasons a person does sex work is pretty offensive. I just think there was a way to talk about these characters’ specific reasons for being escorts and to not generalize & further stigmatize the entire industry.
Good book
To me not as good as the other escort books in the series but I love the authors work!! I gave three stars to me the characters seemed childish in a way are it was just me but I do love Leigh James work she has some of the best books I may not love this book as much but someone else might
