Dating the Defensive Back by Lisa Suzanne
4.0

Returning to the beloved Vegas Aces world is always a treat. After all, that is where I fell in love with Lisa Suzanne's writing. After a season with the new coach, Lincoln Nash, it's time for the stories of younger and new players, now including two of his brothers.

Dating the Defensive Back is Grayson Nash's story. Grayson signs with the Vegas Aces in what he believes could be his last year. On his first night out with his teammates, he is instantly smitten with a gorgeous woman who walks into the bar.

Ava Maxwell knows Grayson. They go way back, as he is her oldest brother's best friend from high school and the guy she crushed on while growing up. As Grayson approaches and tries the worst and most cliche pick-up lines, Ava realizes he doesn't recognize her. 10 years have passed since they last saw each other. But why would she refuse a night with Grayson?

When he learns who she is, he is pissed. He refuses to further break his promise to Ava's brother of looking out for her. Until a photo of them gets leaked by Ava's ex, and they decide to get into a fake relationship to keep the media at bay. Do you want to guess who Grayson's publicist ends up being? Good old Ellie, who has a blast with these two.

There is no denying Grayson and Ava are combustible together. Their chemistry is some of the best Lisa Suzanne's has ever written. She fits in with the Nashes so well. You have to love these two (minus when they don't communicate for the littlest things).

I'm excited about the rest of this new series! Because the Nashes are here to stay and further shake the Aces a bit.
