The Wrong Game by Kandi Steiner
4.0
Love the MMC, FMC needs therapy (respectfully)
This book had some heavy themes (in the characters' pasts), but for the most part, we dont get bogged down in it.
Gemma's past relationship deeply scarred her, so she no longer believes in love and chooses to be alone. Her friend convinces her to at least "hang out" with some guys to possibly have a few one-night stands. Since Gemma has season tickets to the Bears, she uses that as her selling point. I loved the concept of bringing a new date to each football game.
However, we dont get MUCH of that before, enter Zach, the charming bartender and fellow Bears fan, who volunteers as tribute to be her first "practice date."
And what a date he is! I adored Zach. He has his own baggage, but he's worked through things and is pretty emotionally healthy.
I know it's part of a book to have some drama, but i had problems with the number of times Gemma decides to call it quits on the whole thing because she's feeling overwhelmed by things being good with Zach. I get that she has things to work through, but 3 strikes might have convinced me (as Zach) to let it go. I wish she'd go to counseling like her bff suggested.
Gemma's bestie, Belle, is a great friend, and I look forward to reading her book.
