SYNOPSIS:

Tennyson Clark is getting a life. First step: quitting her job as assistant to Dominic Anderson, star quarterback for the Washington Warriors, her best friend … and the man she’s been secretly in love with for years. But since the gorgeous, if overprotective playboy has only ever seen her as his BFF, she’s finally ready to relinquish her tattered fantasy and move on. Enter steps two and three: new job and new man.
Football is Dominic's life, and with his contract soon up for renewal, all his focus needs to be on the game. But Tennyson—dependable, logical Tennyson— is making that next to impossible with her mysterious new job and her sudden interest in online dating. He doesn’t do relationships. But the thought of another man touching her sexier-than-hell curves has him suddenly wanting more from his best friend.
Indulging in hot, dirty, what’s-my-name sex with no strings and lots of benefits is simple, uncomplicated…until it’s not.

My Musings :

I always circle back to friends-to-lovers trope time and again when I am in the mood for a romance. And so far it hasn't disappointed me. It usually leaves me with a good case of sniffles and a bright smile at the end.

And I am talking about it because Scoring off the field is one such book. Oh my, I have never felt the need to smack a guy so badly. Seriously! Tenny and Dom have known each other since both of them ended up in the foster care in different situations. Their pasts are so heart rending, especially Tenny's. I have not connected in such a way with a heroine in recent times. She had me crying and laughing along with her. I love love her absolutely!

Now Dom is, inspite of taking care of Tenny for so many years, making her live half heartedly. So Tenny decides to stop pining after him and then Dom starts to panic. Oh I loved this part. His out of control stress was so fun to watch since he so deserved it. It was as plain as a nose on the face that he is into Tenny as much as she is. But no!The macho guy has to be a one night stand hero. It had me groaning at times.

But once he starts seeing Tenny as a woman instead of a bestie, wow, it heated up fast. The chemistry is so hot and lethal between them. The banter is also quirky and fun. I enjoyed the pair so much that I intend to read the author's other pairings too! I think this is going to end up on my reread list. I so recommend Tenny and Dom to you for a hot sexy time!

I received a copy voluntarily for reviewing purposes. This doesn't impact my review in any way

ABOUT NAIMA SIMONE

USA Today Bestselling author Naima Simone’s love of romance was first stirred by Johanna Lindsey, Sandra Brown and Linda Howard many years ago. Well not that many. She is only eighteen…ish. Though her first attempt at a romance novel starring Ralph Tresvant from New Edition never saw the light of day, her love of romance, reading and writing has endured. Published since 2009, she spends her days—and nights— writing sizzling romances with a touch of humor and snark.
She is wife to Superman, or his non-Kryptonian, less bullet proof equivalent, and mother to the most awesome kids ever. They all live in perfect, sometimes domestically-challenged bliss in the southern United States.
