Review:
It’s a SCORCHER and I’m not talking about the weather outside!! I am fanning myself off after reading PLAYING THE PART by Robin Covington. It’s her newest novel that is going to be a great summer read! It’s a great plot with wonderful characters. Piper James is a romance novelist who has been hired as a consultant to a movie set. Her book is being made into a movie and the hot Hollywood star, has no idea how to play a man in love. Mick Blackwell “was a man-sized death-by-chocolate layer cake, and she wanted to eat him up”. I love some of the lines in the book! It’s a classic story of man sees girl, man wants girl, girl wants guy but……. She has some rules! Piper, the romance novelist that looks like a sexy librarian has been burned in the past. She is interested in a sex only relationship with the handsome actor. She just wants no sleepovers and no bad press. Well, the chemistry between the two characters is hot, hot, and scorching! Mick is a love them and leave them guy, but he keeps on wanting to change the rules. He is drawn to Piper and his relationship with Piper is making him a better actor too! Hey, what’s going on Mick? This is a great story dealing with building a relationship, trust, falling in love and great sex. Can Piper teach Mick how to love? How many rules is Piper willing to break to keep this man in her life?
If you want a great summer read, you will enjoy this novel. Robin Covington has some great lines that will leave you laughing too! I love the whole book, except for the epilogue. That was a little too unbelievable, but I must admit, the romantic inside of me swooned! Enjoy!
