Sunny Shelly’s Review: 4 Stars
With a little push from Kinsey and Becca (the heroines from the first two books in this series), Richard is pushed to confess his feelings for Madison, setting out to play for keeps — and thus begins their happily ever after. Thankfully, that happens pretty early on in the book, and it’s not chapter after chapter of the two of them waffling on whether or not to ‘fess up. And once they do officially get together, this story is pretty low-angst. (Much like the other books in this series, which I appreciate.) The only drama in the book is a health scare that Madison’s father has, and Richard steps up to show his support pretty spectacularly.
If you are looking for a low-drama, low-angst, feel-good friends-to-lovers romance, then Playing For Keeps is definitely right up your alley. I received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review.
