Clay and Seth are about to celebrate
their civil partnership, and to help out Anthony has offered
to cater the party. Unfortunately, he doesn’t know how to
cook! In order to fix that little problem, he signs up for
a class called Coastal Cuisine. Once there, he meets sexy,
outspoken Roan. Roan clearly wants Anthony, and he’s all
for it at first. Then Roan begins to want more. Can
Anthony get past his issues, or will he lose Roan for good?
It’s How You Play the Game follows The Name
of the Game, and although it would stand alone quite
well, I enjoyed finding out what happened with Seth and Clay
after the first book ended. When I finished the first book,
I was hoping Anthony would get a book. Anthony is quite a
character, with his flighty, flirty nature, interesting
fashion sense, and fear of commitment. I wasn’t sure if I
liked Roan at first. His force of nature personality and
quick certainty of what he wanted bugged me at first. As
the book progressed, though, he began to seem like just what
Anthony needed. It’s How You Play the Game is
a very different book from The Name of the Game, but
I still enjoyed it. The love scenes are incredibly hot, and
there’s a lot of emotion here. The only thing that
disappointed me was the lack of Roan’s point of view.
Understanding where Roan was coming from would have deepened
the story for me. That said, this was a well-written book
with emotion, hot sex, and plenty of crazy Anthony-ness that
made me smile. |
