Tight Spot by Stacey Lynn

 







Synopsis:


When a fake relationship feels a little too real…. I’m in a Tight Spot.

I’m not a nice guy. I’m too rude. Too gruff. I want to be left alone and stay in my lane as one of the best tight ends in the NFL. Too bad management has a sudden problem with my image and all the fines I’ve been racking up.

Now I’m told I need to settle down, shape up…or they’re shipping me out.

Except no playbook could have prepared me for the Hail Mary pass they threw at me:

Enter Hailey Parillo. My fake girlfriend. She’s the Sunshine to my Grump, the Sweet to my Sour and the Smile to my Scowl. As ridiculous as it is, she agrees to play this fake game with me, for something in return:

Lessons in seducing a man and losing her virginity.

I almost balk at the idea, but I've got a career I don't want to lose in a city I don't want to leave.

And little did I know this is the most important game of my life.

Review:




Tight Spot is book three in the Nashville Steel series, it could be read as a standalone, but I liked and recommend to not miss any of the previous books.

This was a very good book from start to end, it was truly impossible to put down.

Dawson Butler is a veteran for the Nashville football team, he is in need of a steady relationship in order to clean up his public image and to appease the GM and the owner of the team. He hates relationships, so his only chance is to find a partner for a fake one. He reluctantly calls a famous matchmaker and he meets Hailey Parillo. After an hurtful breakup, Hailey isn't looking for a relationship so she accepts Dawson's proposal.

Dawson and Hailey are so different but perfectly matched. He is a quiet, reserved man, while she is a friendly, extroverted woman.
I really liked how they drive each other crazy just being in the same room, their physical attraction is sizzling hot, but they are also very sweet and caring.

Stacey Lynn has made spicy and steamy a slow burn kind of story. The characters were well rounded and credible. The fake dating trope is one of my favourite, and this one was even more intriguing with the addition of the clause to lose the V-Card to the pact.

She’s had a rough year with a bad break-up and a terrible loss. But Charlotte isn’t going to let that dampen her spirits. She’s determined to have fun, finish the things she starts, and avoid falling for another guy – especially her best friend’s grumpy, gorgeous older brother.
