Enjoyment: 3.0Quality: 2.5Characters: 2.5Plot: 2.0

I knew Jace Thatcher was the wrong play the second he set his sights on me. He’s the school’s star wide receiver. The campus golden boy. The kind of man who takes what he wants and never lets go. And what he wants…is me. But I’m not a game to be won. I have secrets. Scars. A past that’s still chasing me. And the last thing I need is a cocky football player with an obsessive streak and a dangerous smile trying to claim me like I’m his. Only Jace doesn’t take no for an answer. Not when he’s decided I belong to him. Not when my past comes knocking. Not even when I try to run. Because Jace Thatcher plays to win. And falling for him? Might be the worst play of my life. *Note: Jace Thatcher is a morally grey antihero who is obsessed with his girl and will do anything to keep her. This is a darker football romance. The Wrong Play is a football romance standalone from USA Today and International Bestselling Author C.R. Jane.

    Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

    I was really anticipating this release but after reading it am quite disappointed. At this point, the stalker athlete may have run its course, much of this story felt recycled from previous iterations. Jace, who is such a fun character really didn't get much fun in his book! And poor Riley, who had it rough didn't have enough backstory to find her pain/torment feel grounded. We're dropped into the story starting with her abuse, but have no backstory to see where this started or really understand why Riley got sucked in so easily. It's not that we can't understand this type of situation, it's that we aren't shown it as the readers, and makes Riley feel like a bit of a flat character. Jace is so fun, reminds me a lot of Ari Lancaster, but this book didn't really give him enough fun in his courtship of Riley. The Sphinx storyline was SO boring and a waste of pages. However, I am intrigued by Jace's brother Jagger, and am interested in his story.
