The four weeks of Faire are the one thing she looks forward to every year. Every year, she has a NSA fling with Dex, a performer with the Rusty Kilts, who is rumored to have a wench at every faire. His cousin, Daniel, is their stage manager. Stacey impulsively drunk texts “Dex” and they begin communicating over the course of the year… but has she really been talking with him at all? Please excuse typos/name misspellings. Entered on screen reader. 2.5 stars It wasn't a bad read, just slow and a bit on the boring side. What brought it down most for me was the hero. There wasn't enough of a grovel, in fact practically none at all, and that wasn't at all okay with me. I was left with a slightly bad taste in my mouth at the HEA. 3.5 stars As with Well Met, there were a lot of things I liked about Well Played, but the pacing and some plot choices didn't work for me. Mainly the deceptions and Stacey's near-immediate forgiveness of Daniel. I wanted her to stick up for herself more and for Daniel to fight for her. It was frustrating and I didn't entirely believe their HEA would be lasting. no reviews | add a review

"Another laugh-out-loud romantic comedy featuring kilted musicians, Renaissance Faire tavern wenches, and an unlikely love story. Stacey is jolted when her friends Simon and Emily get engaged. She knew she was putting her life on hold when she stayed in Willow Creek to care for her sick mother, but it's been years now, and even though Stacey loves spending her summers pouring drinks and flirting with patrons at the local Renaissance Faire, she wants more out of life. Stacey vows to have her life figured out by the time her friends get hitched at Faire next summer. Maybe she'll even find The One. When Stacey imagined "The One," it never occurred to her that her summertime Faire fling, Dex MacLean, might fit the bill. While Dex is easy on the eyes onstage with his band The Dueling Kilts, Stacey has never felt an emotional connection with him. So when she receives a tender email from the typically monosyllabic hunk, she's not sure what to make of it. Faire returns to Willow Creek, and Stacey comes face-to-face with the man with whom she's exchanged hundreds of online messages over the past nine months. To Stacey's shock, it isn't Dex-she's been falling in love with a man she barely knows"-- No library descriptions found. |
