This is the second book in the "Play by Play" series. We met Elizabeth Darnell in the first of this series,The Perfect Play (Play-By-Play Novels (Heat)) she is a sports agent, she was fired by Mick Riley football player for her interference in his private life. His brother Gavin is also one of Elizabeth's clients,now she has been avoiding him, worried that he might be going to fire her as well. That would be a double blow as she has been in love with Gavin for years,only he doesn't know that and she has every intention that he will never find out. Gavin plays pro baseball for the Saint Louis Rivers Elizabeth had landed him the contract straight from college, she has made him a rich man, raising his profile and getting him product endorsements. Gavin knew that Elizabeth had been avoiding him, worried in case he side with his brother and fire her. But that was about to end as he intended to corner her as they were both attending a sports function. Right after his brother Mick had dumped Elizabeth they had shared a kiss, Gavin had been unable to get that out of his mind. He had always thought that Elizabeth was beautiful woman, but there had never been anything personal between them over the years. He waits for her to leave the function and confronts her. They end up back at his house and spend an explosive night together, Gavin asks Elizabeth to come stay with him, both of them are wondering where this will lead, suddenly Gavin realises he knows very little about Elizabeth, yes she is tough and seems cold, but he is beginning to wonder if that is just a front.
This book was absolutely wonderful, I wondered if I would like this as Elizabeth had played an unsympathetic character in the first book and although she has apologised, she is still suffering problems in her business and private life from it. But the more I read into the book the better I understood her character. Gavin is a nice guy if a little dumb as to what is in front of him, I really liked him. The love scenes between them were really hot, there was also plenty of passion and romance. The supporting characters were fully rounded and played there part in the story beautifully. All in all this is a fabulous read one that I heartily recommend.the next in the series is about Mick and Gavin's sister Jenna who runs the family's sports bar. Taking a Shot (Play-By-Play Novel)

And she has done it again. Jaci Burton, I mean. Don't ask me how but at the end of the first book Elizabeth Darnell was top of my list "Despicable and horrible people" and believe me, she had earned that place. How was Jaci Burton going to transform her into the heroine of her second book?!?!?! I couldn't believe she was going to be able to... But she did it, oh boy she did it.
The last thing we knew about Elizabeth Darnell was that she was fired by Mick Riley (main character of the first book) after she used her girlfriend's son, Nathan, to promote him in a really cruel way. So yes, I was happy when he fired her.
But she didn't lose a client, she lost one of her best friends and his family that had been like a family for her during years... especially Gavin, Mick's little brother and her secret crush for at least 4 years.
And what did she do when Mick fired her? The only thing her mind could think of: give Gavin a kiss before he fired her following his brother's steps. And this is were everything begins because after that kiss Gavin's POV about Liz changed completely. During years she was nothing but his manager, tossing beautiful women to his arms and promoting him like no one else could but after she kissed him he saw her as a woman for the first time.
Even Gavin had to admit, despite the fact that Liz was bossy, stubborn, impertinent and... well, herself, she was also a gorgeous and sexy woman. And that woman was hiding from him afraid of losing another client. What could he do is she was avoiding him at all cost and not returning his calls?!
Obviously he had to catch her with her guard down and seduce her until she would scream for him to take her.
But it wasn't going to be that easy since what began like a "not strings attached" thing developed into something they didn't understand: a relationship. And with a family tragedy coming their way they had to take the decision really soon...
In a personal note: if you are looking for a sexy, funny, amazing and HOT read this is your book. Well, the first book in the series is amazing too so, why don't you buy both of them? Seriously guys, you are going to love them. The covers are to die for, the characters are well developed and you will want to read the third book (coming out next year). Why? Because is about Jenna, Mick and Gavin's little sister, and Tyler Anderson, one heck of a sexy and hot hockey player... *already daydreaming about him*
Don't forget to prepare the fan, ladies, because just like the first one this book is going to make you sweat, trust me ;)

This is the story of Gavin Riley. A baseball major league player and younger brother of Mick, the main character of the first book "The Perfect Play". At the end of the before mentioned book Gavin was unexpectedly kissed by his sport agent, Liz Darnell. This was major surprise for him as Liz, though quite sexy, always behaved in an asexual way around him and ranges in the category of an honorary sister. But this is about to change when Gavin realises his (first mainly bodily) interest in Liz. They start an off-season fling which supposedly is just for fun, no strings attached. But time is passing by and Gavin becomes more and more attached to Liz (now also to her brain), who is hiding her heart quite well. They have to figure out on the hard way if they are meant to be lovers or friends.
This book follows the events in the first book which I read a few months ago. The characters are therefore already familiear though Gavin was more of a supporting character. Liz however was the evil business woman who almost ruined Mick's and Tara's love story. I have to admit after reading the first book I wasn't very fond of Liz and wasn't even sure if I would enjoy her being the main heroine. I should have known better. The more you know about Liz, the more human she becomes. And though Gavin is a gentle but very sexy hero, I was mainly taken by Liz. I liked her, a lot. Her humor, integrity, sensitivity, the overall package. And the development of her character was described in a way that I couldn't put the book down, I so wanted to know what is coming next. In addition I enjoyed meeting the whole Riley clan again. I wonderful second book in this series, which outstrips the first book.
