Split the Uprights
What happens when you mix men and women in a fantasy football league? Lots of sexy competition and instant rivalries. Owner of Fantasy Leagues, Lola Fontaine, maintains two identities, one as loving matchmaker and the other as ball busting Dominatrix. In the LockHim Room, her muscle toned guys never know what to expect.
With reclusive statistician, Eugene Carlton, they believe they have the perfect formula for romance. All their success takes a place on the Wall of Flame. But, do they really know anything about true love connections?
She takes awkward Danika Parker under her wing and teaches her everything she doesn't know about love. However, in the process, they establish risky boundaries, pushing the envelope normally established for just friends. Danika takes an interest in fellow participant, Finn Maxwell, the man still searching for a plan.
Unfortunately for Lola, time is running out on secrets from her past. Living on borrowed time will catch up with her in a way she least expected. She will hurt the ones she loves, no matter how she tries. But, will they ever forgive? Will Lola get more than she counted on?
Learn about grilled lemonade, love jam, fantasy football, and safe words all wrapped into the fun of Split the Uprights.

Now avidly writing, she has several other books in progress. She has books that draw from eroticism, romance, suspense, drama, and sometimes comedy. A few of her books garner only one flame, but, others will secure all five flames in the heat index.

This was little different business of Fantasy Football and match making rolled into one. all character’s done well. There are several characters other then the main characters in this book and it jumps from one to the other in the chapters giving there story and backgrounds kinda of confusing at first even with that it was still great book to read and pull you right in...

I WAS GIVEN THIS FOR A HONEST REVIEW AND THIS IS MY OPINION over 18
Now you start out with a woman who has found a way to make money, play a game and enjoy herself.Lola Fontaine plays a game for each season,this is one during football, 13 women and 13 men or chosen to play. Now she picks the ones she thinks have the chance to make a love match during the season. She has a partner Eugene Carlton, a genius with figures, who figures out how many pairs he thinks will become couples. Now on the side she is also a DOM ,who likes to use a whip.She had found that some of the big he man sports guys like to be but in their place and she was the one to be but in to do it, and she loved it.But she keeps her personal and business life separate . You will laugh and even cry as you finally grow attached to the different people in the story. You will learn there back grounds. The game players are only hoping to find that one true love.It goes into how they actually play the game, like really playing with a ball that during the game she would but a woman's name on one and a man's name on one and auction them off at the end ,the winners got a date with the name on the ball. They gathered to watch the game and during one you find Lola is not so cut and dried, she does care even if she tries to hide it.Lola will even learn what it is like to have a real friend.She was worried about a letter she got early in the book. But It's at the end when you find out more about what could be in the letter. Is it true or false it may come out in the next book. This has been a real good story and I'm off to read the next one.

The fantasy football league and dating all rolled into one is the perfect way to find matches for like minded people. Lola has found the perfect business for her. It allows her to do things her own way and help people make matches for their happily ever after. Even if that's not for her. Danika, one of the dating league contestants seems to have hit a nerve with Lola as a friend and maybe more. When things start to spin out of Lola's control, will she be able to hold it together or will she lose the grip she hold on her life? Will past experiences come back to change her life completely?
I enjoyed this book, even with the cliff hanger at the end. Each chapter has a title in the book, and at first, I was a tad confused. Once I realized that some of the chapters are written from someone else's perspective, I understood. I can't wait to read the next book for the continuation of the story.

I got an Arc copy of this book for a blog tour. I liked the story. It is about a match making service. Lola has some issues of her own to deal with. What? Well you will have to read to find out. Eugene is her genius sidekick with maybe a touch of autism. He loves to study human interaction.
To find out if the dating service is a success.. You will have to read the book. Overall the book was well written. I enjoyed it.
The next book should be out soon.

I love how Davee uses Fantasy Football as a match making technique. The plot was original and kept me going. Great interaction between the characters.

DNF review on this book full reviews on more!
DNF: Davee is an awesome person with an awesome attitude. I just couldn't get into the story. Plus, Lola was borderline bisexual (I didn't find out if she actually was) and doesn't settle well with my stomach. I have nothing against it! I just personally don't want to read about it.
..I received a complimentary copy for an honest review and I thank her for the opportunity..

Boy was this book NOT what I was expecting.. I thought it was going to be the type of read I loved. This was not the case. I struggled through this book, skimmed it and when it was done... i don't even know.
The formatting was also an issue. No real paragraphs.
