[Romance Schmomance]

I really enjoyed Getting Schooled, so I couldn't wait to finally get my hands on Getting Played. There were a few tropes in this one that I didn't mind reading at all like one-night stand, surprised pregnancy and a little bit of a fake relationship.

I really thought this was a cute read. Not going to lie, I'm getting a little tired of reading about the hero that's a bit of a player. But don't worry, you don't see any of that happening in this one. Lainey turned out to be his game changer.

If I could turn back time...

I'm pretty happy with my life now but a few years ago, I couldn't help but over-analyse all my past bad decisions. If I could turn back time and give myself a bit of advice, I wouldn't be going back to right my wrongs, I'd be going back to tell myself to look forward.

Pretty philosophical, hey?

I guess I just couldn't help but feel sorry for the main characters in the story, Dean and Lainey and how they were pigeon-holed because of their past. Lainey for having a child young and out of wedlock, and Dean because he was a player and broke a few hearts. They both learnt from their lessons and tried to live their lives not repeating those mistakes. Dean is very straight with the women he sleeps with and never makes promises he can't commit to. Lainey has made a good life for her son and herself, trying to never rely on others for their happiness. Unfortunately for Lainey, even taking precautions, it seems as if history is repeating itself.

I really enjoyed listening to Getting Played. Both narrators do a really great job and I found myself connecting with the characters more because of their storytelling ability. They are both so easy to listen to and I never struggle to understand them or identify when the characters change. I will definitely listen to more from Andi Arndt and Zachary Webber in the future.

Emma Chase has treated us to a cute and sexy story set in a small town. The characters are original, funny and full of heart. Lainey's son Jason, was smart, sweet and very loyal to his mother. Dean's students (including Jason) were entertaining and I loved that the nerdy kids were portrayed as pretty cool and not the butt of jokes. Both Lainey and Dean's families were great and I loved their obvious connection.

I've really enjoyed the Getting Some series so far and I really hope there will be more in the future.

I am really enjoying this series. This was such a fun, sexy and adorable story. I thought Dean was a great hero. He showed lots of growth as the story progress. The banter in this book is hilarious especially between the guys. I really like Lainey and her son. She was a well rounded heroine. The chemistry between them is smoking and definitely love their banter.

Side Note: Can I just say...I really hate that this was released exclusively as an audible book first. I love listening to my books but I really love to read them first.
