๐Ÿ 2025/001 | BELLA ANDRE - “GAME FOR ANYTHING” | 4★

DETAILS

Synopsis

Some lovers play it safe . . . others are GAME FOR ANYTHING.

He’s the Superbowl hero men idolize and women lust after . . . the bad boy quarterback with a dangerous edge. But behind his devil-may-care grin, Ty Calhoun hides a desire that only one woman can ever fulfill—and a memory he can’t shake: high school graduation night . . . and mind-blowing sex with the untouchable girl of his dreams. He would trade every trophy to feel the heat of her sensual, uninhibited lust once more. And he may get that chance . . . because she’s just been hired by the San Francisco Outlaws’ new owner to clean up Ty’s act.

The country’s top image consultant, Julie Spencer is a total pro at cleaning up the messes of the rich and famous. Even working with the man who took her virginity and broke her heart ten years ago can’t shake her. Until he touches her again. Because one caress - one hot kiss - is all it takes to spark the same knee-quaking electricity, and soon they’re mixing business and extreme pleasure. But knowing the danger this bad boy poses to her heart, Julie is determined to keep her distance.

But Ty has a game plan of his own. The more he misbehaves, the more Julie will have to keep tabs on him—and the more he can give his dream girl some very real thrills, by showing her just how fun it is to be bad. This time around he’s game for anything…especially winning her heart.

Quote(s)

1.    It could have gotten Ty’s back up if he’d let it, but he’d learned early on that showing emotion put you in the weakest man’s shoes.

2.    A boy could be excused for his actions, but a man had to take responsibility for his life.

3.    He wanted to tell her that his friend Tim had gotten out on that field every day for ten years as a defensive tackle and let the other team beat his body all to hell, out of sheer desperation to help his whole extended family rise up out of the trash heap of a town they’d been living in. he knew guys who treated football like any other job. They put in the hours. Gave their all, and then they went home for dinner with their wives and children. They didn’t waste time in bars or hanging out with groupies. They earned their money with quiet power.

4.    “You want something bad enough, I figure you should go get it.” When he put it like that, everything sounded so simple. No doubts. No fears. Just pinpointing exactly what you wanted and going after it, knowing it could – and would – be yours.

 

BOOK JOURNEY

Reading Experience

Ty and Julie still have a lot to conquer before their relationship is stable. With similar backgrounds, I think they do have a lot in common and because of the similar background, their trust issues have to be resolved so that they will have a stable relationship and going hand in hand in the future together.

Hopefully the next story is also about them. Well, happily ever after to both of you. Cheers.
