Games We Play Book 1 |
Never Have I Ev... Wait, what was the question again?!
What happens when an ill-advised party game makes it obvious I've still got my V-card?
Embarrassment. A lot of embarrassment.
Especially when the sexy, older guy at the party who witnessed the whole thing turns out to be someone I have to see every week. Not to mention my best friend's cousin.
He's not only straight, but way out of my league.
It's going to be so awkward for both us.
Or awesome...if his protective nature and flirty attempts to teach me how to date lead to the kind of tutoring that lives in my fantasies. But how likely is that to happen? I'm not known as the sweet, naive one among for my friends for nothing.
I'm probably imagining those looks he throws my way. Probably projecting my own want onto his expression.
But...what if I'm not?
Never Have I Evan features an inexperienced, shy tech geek, an assistant football coach who oozes confidence, a town full of quirky, nosy residents, and sexual awakening and discovery themes!

My Review: 4/5 Stars
Evan isn't so good at flirting. And when he finally gives it a try not only is it a bust, the guy he hit on is not only straight but his best friend's cousin. Who is also the new assistant football coach at the high school. Embarrassing and awkward is just the beginning of how Evan is feeling. But lucky for him, Dawson is a pretty nice guy who genuinely likes Evan and is glad to get a chance to get to know him. Dawson has been having a rough few years. He lost his chance at a professional football career and the rest of his college career after an accident at a party that hurt him both physically and emotionally. Because even after he healed, the injury was bad enough that he could never risk playing again or face the possibility of one bad hit paralyzing. So he comes to Granville in hopes of a fresh start. What he doesn't expect is to start having feelings for Evan. He has never been interested in men before, so what is it about Evan that he is drawn to? At first, they spark a friendship despite Evan's embarrassment of flirting gone wrong and then it leads to Dawson wanting to help Evan overcome his shyness and improve his flirting skills. But Dawson doesn't expect what hanging out with Evan and getting to know him will do to him. And soon, their relationship takes a whole new turn. Evan knows Dawson can't promise him a relationship, not with the scars from Dawson's past hanging over him, but he isn't ready to give up on him either. These two were really sweet and such a great pair! They built up a friendship that little by little turned into more. And it was just a sweet romance for these two to slowly fall for one another. Lots of fun and sweet moments! I look forward to the next book.
