Zach Armstrong had big shoes to fill, having inherited his stepfather's sports agency. When he tried to expand the business to female athletes, his path crossed with Paige Moss, who would eventually become his rival. A night at the biggest sports expo in Vegas leads to passion. Can these two balance the thin line between love and hate?
This read had a great premise. Sports romance and enemies-to-lovers? Yes. Rival agents? Even better. But the delivery was just alright. I really liked the build-up in this read, but the end left something to be desired and felt rushed.
ONE WILD WEDDING WEEKEND RATING: ⭐⭐⭐
SPICE: 🔥🔥
Daley Martin and Tristan Hamilton were about to become family. The business rivals were coming to their siblings' wedding, but the tension turned their truce into something more. It was only for a weekend, they tell themselves; they won't see each other much again. But when their companies merged, they cannot avoid the contact and the tension.
This read also held so much promise, but the delivery was not quite as good as expected. Again, rivals to lovers is totally my jam, and I really wanted to like this read. The pacing seemed off, and while I understand this was a short read, it just seemed rushed and gave two characters with so much potential not very much depth.
