Juan from the start we can tell he's a good guy, "he tilted his head and his gaze dropped to her dress. "Babe..let me help. You're upset." I mean when Dana gets something in her mind that girl goes all in, "as if you don't know." She leaned forward, until the top of her head was level with his chin. "Kiss me, dammit." He chuckled and meant to step back, more amused than concerned, but she grabbed his jacket and pulled him toward her. Their lips collided, and he winced. She definitely had a temper." Juan he has to explain how a marriage should work, "maybe, but as a man, I won't have my girl asking her father for help. That's my job, and for you to go behind my back makes me appear weak and without the balls to stand up to my wife." He pinned her with a look. "I have balls." With each book I fall in love with the characters it represents.

This is Juan's story. Who knew that skiers could be so sexy? Not me, but Debra Kayn made me a believer and when I watch the Olympics this year, I might have to pay a little more attention to the skiers. Juan is called the Spanish Lover and is in trouble with his coach because of his reputation, he may lose his sponsorship. He has vowed to walk a straight line and stay our of trouble, but then he is caught in a very compromising position with a stranger (Dana.) Dana has her whole life planned out including when she is supposed to get married. Dana is stood up on her wedding day, which is when she ends up in the compromising position with Juan. Even though the position is completely innocent, Dana uses it to her advantage to keep her plans on track. Theirs becomes a marriage of convenience. But you can feel the chemistry between these two and I was rooted for the two of them from the beginning. I am enjoying this sport related series by Kayn. I can't wait for books 4 and 5. All the books are stand alone, but characters do pop in and out from previous books.

Dana had planned her life out, every detail in order. When things fell apart at the alter, she was a mess.
A man stopped her from fleeing down the hall, he was nice, listened to her and helped her out of her dress. Little did they know, that when things got interesting, that they would get caught.
Juan is a Skier, who is involved in the Olympics. He's on the team, until he's caught with a lady in a compromising position. Even tho it looks worse then it actually is........Then she surprises him and changes the course of both their lives.
One of the things I like about Debra's books is that you get a glimpse of the other charactors in the previous stories. The men are all best friends and they will help each other out if they can.
There's alot of action in this "Playing for Hearts" series by Debra Kayn. If your looking for action, read.

Good read, not a cliffhanger.

Awww! This is a different start to a love story but it works! I loved Dana and Juan and their unconventional beginning. Their road to an hea was fraught with obstacles and misunderstandings, some happy and some angry.
Anyway, I recommend this series if you are a fan of sweet romances like me.
