The Sweet Spot by Bella Matthews

4.0

The Sweet Spot is the fourth book in the Playing to Win series, but it can be read as a standalone.

Brynlee and Deacon knew each other when they were younger. She’d had a crush on him, but he never really noticed her because she was too young. Now, they’re older, and when they meet again, the sparks are instantaneous.

Deacon was a single dad, and I loved how much he cared about his daughter. Kennedy. He did his best to make sure she was happy, especially with huge life changes for her. And he also co-parented with his ex in a healthy way, which was great. I thought there would be OW drama, but his ex was happy for him when she saw he had Brynlee.

Brynlee was so fun and kind. I loved seeing her bond with Kennedy. And she also started standing up for herself to her parents, mostly her mother.

Brynlee and Deacon may have had a marriage of convenience, but their feelings were obvious. And they were so loving and supportive of each other through everything.

This was a great ending to the series, and I can’t wait to see what’s next.
