I love a good fluffy romance, and Sara's books always hit the mark. Dex is having lots of trouble finding the love that he sees his friends have. He wants someone to come home to, someone to spend his life with, but what he gets on the apps are women who just want him because of who he is. Enter Margot. She isn't afraid to tell him off, even if he is who he is. Dex doesn't want to date someone with kids, Margot has a kid.. and Wyatt is as feisty as her mother. He can't help but be drawn to them both.
Sometimes the thing you don't think you want, is the exact thing you need. Dex fought his feelings for Margot for a little too long for my liking and I thought the end of the book was a bit rushed, but even with that, it was a cute, fun story that was a perfect beach read.
Thank you to Brilliance, Sara Ney and Netgalley for an ALC.

Biggest Player Honest ARC Review:

Margot, a first grade teacher and single mom was convinced to put herself out there in the world of dating by her precocious ten year old daughter.
What Margot didn’t expect was to match with someone who she thought was trying to catfish women.

Dex was a professional football player with a reputation as a womanizer. The two seemed to be polar opposites, creating a bit of friction and chemistry.

Dex’s agent complicated things when he got involved in Margot and Dex’s relationship.

Filled with tension, great banter and spice, this romantic comedy with Margot and Dex was a fun and entertaining read. The narration was well done! If you like Sports Romance, this is a great addition to your TBR!

This is book two in a series, but you do not have to read book 1 to read this one. Different couple in this story and previous couple is not mentioned very often. The only true link is the dating app.

The MMC is so immature, it was hard to listen too. For a man who is playing in the NFL, he should have been a bit further along in his maturity. Wyatt (the daughter) was more mature than him, and she's 10. However, the storyline is good and worth getting past his immature ways.

Dax is a 25 year old football player who scrolls on dating apps looking for someone to spend time with. But he's really not all that serious about wanting to be in a relationship. And he made it known he didn't want to date someone with a kid.

Margot is a 29 year old single mom to a 10 year old. And she is looking for someone to date and spend her time with. She wants serious not a fling.

This one had that kind of energy I love — quick to pull me in, and even quicker to make me care. The opposites-attract dynamic worked so well here. They were nothing alike on the surface, but the way they clashed and clicked kept everything moving in the best way.
The pace never dragged. It felt like something was always happening, but not in a loud or overwhelming way — more like I was right there watching two very different people slowly realize how well they actually fit. Their differences didn’t push them apart; they made every scene feel alive.

It was easy to root for them, even in the frustrating moments, because both had something to offer, something to prove, and something to learn. I liked the balance of tension and warmth, and how their connection built without losing the spark that made them interesting in the first place.

Quick, full of charm, and exactly what I needed.

Margot’ is a single mother of a 10 year old and also a teacher living in Scottsdale, AZ. She joins the Kissmet dating site and was matched with Dex, a football player who Margot thinks is a catfish. Margot calls Dex out on it and they banter back and forth using the app. When they accident;y meet in a restrurant where Wyatt, Margot's daughter pretends to be Dex's daughter to get him out of a date, Margot decieds to give him a chance. Dex isn't ready to start dating a single mother but is attracted to Margot. This is a steamy and funny book that had me laughing out loud at. Just like the first book in the series Not Your Biggest Fan it leaves you wanting more from the characters. I would like to thank both NetGalley and Brilliance Publishing, Inc. for letting me listen to an advanced copy of the audiobook.
