A steamy, grumpy sunshine sports romance featuring a woman down on her luck, a star basketball player with a filthy mouth, and a connection neither of them can deny.
I'm escaping across the country to help my perfect sister plan her dream wedding, and to prove to both of us everything is under control.
But a combination of tequila and turbulence on the flight there lead to word-vomiting all my troubles to the huge and handsome stranger in the first-class seat next to mine.
Only his whispered dirty diversions keep me sane until landing.
Despite the spark of attraction, we go our separate ways.
Or so I thought.
Turns out the tall, muscular, tattooed tower of a man from the plane is the star player on my future brother-in-law's pro basketball team.
Clay is the last person I should gravitate toward. They're called "players" for a reason.
Grumpy and cynical, he carries a weight on his shoulders I can't possibly fathom.
He's also the only one who knows my secrets and gets my heart racing.
The more we're thrust together, the stronger the chemistry between us becomes.
Hooking up with the all-star athlete isn't the way to get my life on track...but it could just be the game changer we've both been searching for.

My Review:
Game Changer by Piper Lawson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Nova and Clay meet by chance on a plane. He’s headed back to his job as a basketball player with a team he doesn’t want to play for and she’s going to visit her sister and help with final wedding plans. But for Nova, she is extremely afraid of flying which has her engaging her seatmate to help occupy her mind. Clay wants to be left alone but something about this vibrant woman with the pink hair pulls him in and he finds himself helping her through the flight and he expects to never see her again. So when she shows up at the stadium, he is surprised but also intrigued since he’s hasn’t stopping thinking about her. Nova had no idea Clay played basketball and was even more surprised to learn her future brother-in-law is his general manager. She can’t stop thinking about how he helped her so she orchestrates getting to see him. These two begin an unlikely friendship as they find a person they can be real and open with. Clay’s life is all about basketball and he’s avoided relationships after getting his heart broken in college. Nova’s life is in limbo after her fiancé left her and work put her on leave. Where is she headed after her sister’s wedding? I enjoyed this couple and love all the layers to their personalities that they keep discovering. As resistant as Clay is, he can’t stay away and finds a support in Nova he didn’t know he needed while she does the same. Just when I think we are headed down a wonderful path, life throws a curve ball and pushes them apart. Now, I wait for part 2 to see where their journey’s lead them and if they can find a path that brings them back together. I voluntarily read an ARC of this book and this is my honest review.
