My rating:⭐⭐⭐ stars
Most valuable playboy is book one in the Ballers
and Babes series by Lauren Blakely. The story focuses on the relationship
between Violet and Cooper. Cooper is a NFL player who has just started on the
front line this year and is waiting for his million dollar contract to come
through. To help with his image, he and his football brothers are being
auctions for a children’s hospital charity night, only it doesn’t go to plan
for Cooper and he is in the front line of being auctioned off to a cougar who
doesn’t want him for his brains. The fact that the cougar is also his team’s
owner sister doesn’t help matters. To get him out of it, he enlists the help of
his sister’s best friend Violet who helps him out of the bind.
Violet is a hairstylist who from the get go
is just a genuinely nice person. Even though she doesn’t suffer Cooper, she
really likes him and doesn’t have any second thoughts when it comes to helping
out of his bind. The only problem is that she has deeper feelings for him and
she has for a while. How does she balance this pseudo-relationship without
getting in too deep?
This is a slow burn story which focuses on
friendship, relationships and wanting to be the best version of yourself. There
is a lot of funny moments between Violet and Cooper but for me as a reader I
didn’t necessarily feel the sexual tension like I have in previous Lauren Blakely
books, but there are a lot of fun, cute and sweet moments which makes this book
and overall easy read. There isn’t a lot of drama in this book, just two people
trying to work out their relationship and life and finding a balance.
