I've been in a bit of a book funk lately, not fully satisfied from my choices. It was all this one's to short, this one's to long, this one has no sex, this one has to much sex. Yada Yada. But this one, this one is just RIGHT!!!! I loved it. All of it. Every single thing about it. I could not get enough and I definitely couldn't put this down. What great characters, I adore both Chad and Bridget, both strong and smartassed. This is the 8th book I've read from this author, and I'm so over the top...

Chad the sexy hometown baseball player and all around womanizer... Bridget the history girl with a mysterious past. You can bet the tension is alive and well in this one! ESR (easy sexy romantic) all the way... and you know I love my ESR books!

Bridget Rodgers was out for a good time when her friend takes her to a private club she encounters Chad Gamble, the pro-ball player. Realizing he is her best friends fiancee's brother, Bridget keeps her knowledge to herself and embarks on a night of passion...in which Bridget makes a door dash, hoping to never see Chad again.Unfortunately for Bridget their paths do meet again and this time there is no escape.Top pitcher and all around bad boy, Chad Gamble, is in desperate need of some positive p...

Tempting the Player Review on K-Books "I want to be worthy of you." Oh. My. Holy. Hawtness. There are no words to describe how incredible amazing and HAWT this book is. It is not surprise to anyone how much I adore Jennifer L Armentrout, no matter what she writes, YA or Adult, Paranormal or Contemporary I am without a doubt going to love it. And Tempting the Player was definitely no different. I absolutely adored the previous Gamble Brother book Tempting the Best Man and thought no way on ear...

That was so light and sweet 😊😍

readers who love the fake dating trope will really enjoy this one. its a classic short and sweet story that will push your buttons in all the right ways.even though i did find this to be extremely predicable, i still enjoyed the connection between bridget and chad. how it developed felt realistic and genuine (as much as is possible for fake dating lol), once again showing that JLA not only knows how to write angst and tension, but also authentic romance.a fun addition to the series and i cant wa...

*AIEEEEEEEE* I swear these Gamble brothers know how to drive a woman crazy/insane with lust!!! LOVED the story and CANNOT WAIT for the last Gamble brother to fall ....

Rating: 3.5 Stars I'll admit it: Tempting the Player was far better than J. Lynn's first foray into the world of adult fiction, Tempting the Best Man, but it wasn't quite enough to rock my boat. In their entirety, Lynn's novels are entertaining... and that's about it. Which is precisely why I pick them up when I need to get my mind off of a few serious issues and simply relax, but really, I can't award these books any more than 3 Stars because I just like them. I don't love them like I did On Du...

3.5 - "Guys like him didn't date girls like her." Stars!Tempting the Player is written in J. Lynn’s usual style, an easy going ‘comfort’ read, with likeable characters, and a simple to follow plot.Chad definitely has a degree in dirty talking, and I liked Bridget’s quirkiness, she reminded me of Molly Ringwald at the height of her fame in the 80’s.”I want you bad. Right now. Against the wall. On my bed. The floor and maybe in the bathroom later. I have a shower stall and a Jacuzzi we could put t...

Absolutely Recommend: YesBook Boyfriend: ChadSUMMARY (55 words or less)Okay, I knew Chad was my guy in the first book and he lived up to my expectations. This book had a lot of twist I thought I could predict and would be wrong. This is an easy read with just enough angst, sex, dr...

The sequel to Tempting the Best Man does not disappoint. There is so much to love about this book it's hard to really pin-point where to begin.The premise of this book is so fun. In the public eye, Chad is this bad boy player, but in reality, most of that is fiction. He's told he needs to clean up his image to get the contract extension he wants. The way this goes down is comical, but I don't want to say too much because I don't want to spoil anything.Here's what you need to know...Chad is a hot...

27/7 - I really liked Bridget and Chad together. I felt her suspicions over his motives for focusing on her were realistic and his straightforward replies that he liked her, wanted her, not the stick-thin models he was known for dating, was fantastic. I loved the ending, it was swoon-worthily romantic and exactly what I'm looking for in a romance of this length.I just can't see how Alana went from the woman she was in this book (or how she appeared to me) - middle-aged spinster dressed in the mo...

Oh, Lordy. Just when I thought I loved Maddie and Chase, Bridget and Chad came and stole their thunder. Compared to Chase in Tempting the Best Man, I think Chad beat Chase on the sexy scale...big time. He's possessive and intense, whereas Chase was more playful. I fell even more in love with the Gamble brothers this time around, and I can't wait for the third book in the series.If you want to relax with a fun, easy, steamy read, this is the series for you.

Is there anything Jennifer Armentrout can't spin into pure delectable greatness??!! I absolutely love this series, and she's once again proven that you can't keep her boxed into the "YA supernatural" label! This one gets a very happy 4.5 stars from me!!Player is Chad's story, and I have to say I just loved him from the start the very same way I did Chase! There's just something about these Gamble brothers, they are too hot for words and make you melt like a chocolate fudge bar in the summer sun!...

2 ½ stars. While reading I felt like good things were going to happen, but then I kept getting let down.I rounded to 3 stars, because I didn’t wish it would be over.The main plot was watching a relationship develop - with conflicts occurring and being resolved - which is good. But the conflicts were my problem. They are attracted to each other and both want sex. There are three sex scenes which are started with one person being pleasured, then all of a sudden Bridget calls a halt and leaves. Eac...

4.5 Stars “There isn’t a ‘but’ in this.” He cupped her cheek, tilting her head back. When he spoke, his lips brushed hers. “I want you. Bad. Right now. Against the wall. On my bed. The floor and maybe in the bathroom later. I have a shower stall and a Jacuzzi we could put to really good use. I know you’d like it.” Well hello there, Chad Gamble. It’s a pleasure to meet you. Oh, Jennifer Armentrout…umm…err…I mean Ms. J. Lynn, you never cease to amaze me. Each time this author comes out with some...

Man, I could never get tired ofJennifer L Armentrout's writing or the game darting trope!

Addicted from the get go, this book had me at 'chapter one'.I love how we get the POV from both leading characters. Chad the playboy handsome sportsman and loveable insecure Bridget. This book had me melting from their first encounter. I was excited to read this book after thoroughly enjoying the authors first in the series and it most definitely did not disappoint.I definitely am not one to resist bad boy turning good with sassy gorgeous good girl, this book kept me entertained from beginning t...

Nice story. Better than the first, actually. It had more suspense. The characters were kind of average, though. It was a fun read though. It's an emotional roller-coaster. But it was short & enjoyable & it was what I need to get myself off of the stress of the exams.

This was the second book of the Gamble Brothers and believe me, they are a hell of a brothers! This one is the story of Bridget (Madison’s friend and assistant) and Chad, the middle brother. Chad is a great baseball player with an even greater problem: he has a playboy reputation and the club it’s not happy with him. So her publicist (after a hot date between those two that the paparazzi catch) decides that the best solution is for them to pretend being a couple for a month. But you know what th...
