Jase with his go-get-her attitude that's squarely set on Nat and Nat alone. He’s perfect for her in every way. He copes with her crazy, loves her without question, and even takes her unconventional family in stride. Now they’re about to get married and she can't seem to get a word in edge wise when it comes to the wedding. Whatever happened to happy wife, happy life? What she doesn’t realize is Jase is a man with a plan, one she’ll never see coming and she’ll not soon forget.**Formerly Game Planner**

This is the last book in this fun novella series and I think that BJ saved the sexiest until last ☺ Hang onto your knickers ladies, Jase is in the house…

Nat has always been a bit of a go-getter in life, if she wants something she makes it happen. Except when it comes to men, she prefers they chase her. When she shows an interest in Jase Cleary her lady bits are thrilled to find out that the feeling is mutual.

Jase has that look about him, just the way he looks at Nat makes her legs turn to jelly and she just knows he is going to be incredible to get down and dirty with. Her naughty prayers are answered when he calls her asking her out on date.

This begins a whirlwind of full speed ahead relationship. Jase is everything she could have ever dreamed of, it’s like she made a list of what she wanted in a man and boom here he is. He has her feeling constantly aroused and he more than delivers in the sex department. They have this wonderful banter between them and although they are hot to trot for each other they have become inseparable friends too.

As all of their friends seemed to have settled into married life and families, Nat begins to wonder if Jase is with her for a good time or a long time? She know he is the man for her and she couldn’t imagine her life with anyone else. What she doesn’t know is that Jase is a planner and has his next move already worked out.

This was a wonderful conclusion to this schmexy series. I loved all the cameos from the whole bliss tribe ☺

With a happily ever after 8 years in the making, B.J. Harvey delights and treats her fans with a love story they won’t soon forget! Nat and Jase’s journey will have you swooning, sighing, and blushing from head to toe. There will be butterflies…there will be tears, both happy and sad. You can’t get more romantic than this, my friends! 𝐆𝐚𝐦𝐞 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐫 might be considered a romantic comedy, but there is so much emotion, heart, and depth within every single page of this story, I consider it to be SO MUCH MORE!

I completely tore through this book. I opened it and didn’t put it down until I finished. It was a quick, fun read, full of all my favorite Harvey characters.

This book spanned quite a bit of time, years and years. This was both a positive and a negative. I loved getting to see so much of these two and their lives, as well as what the future holds for the Bliss and Game Series crew. While it was great to get to see their lives over time, it was hard to connect with Jase and Natalie the same way I did with everyone else. The story felt broken up into pieces . Now that doesn’t mean I didn’t love what we did get because I did, I just really adored what I did read of them and wanted even more.

This book was incredibly steamy, like whoa! In addition to that, we are treated to humor, endearing leads, and a fast paced story line. I am thrilled to see that we’ll be getting another spinoff. I can’t wait!

Game Planner is the first Rom Com I've read by BJ Harvey - it is book 6 in the Game series, and can be read as a standalone, however all the characters from the previous books do play a big part in the storyline. The main characters are Nat and Jase, and the book covers from the beginning of their relationship to their wedding, with lots of amusing antics along the way.

This was a fairly quick and fun read. The story does move along very quickly time wise, some chapters jumping ahead in much larger increments of time than others.

Natalia's parents are my favourite part of this story - they were definitely not your standard parental relationship, and they added a lot of fun to the story.

This whole book was delicious, swoonworthy and downright wonderful that I just could NOT put it down. So many laughs, so much sighing, swooning and all the things, that I have to say its the most wonderful book!! You will finish off with a high!!! A high of happiness!!!
Nat and Jase have such a way about them that I loved their antics, the banter, their absolutely crazy best friends and family that made you just want to dive into the book and live in it. I kid you not. Hands down absolute perfection!! Hats off to the author for writing this book!!

~ 5 My Today, Tomorrow and Forever Stars ~

I am sitting here writing this review with a HUGE smile on my face. Although it is also bittersweet because this is the final book in the Game series, it was ABSOLUTELY the best ending to this and the Bliss series.

I truly couldn’t have asked for a better ending. Game Planner was a sweet, romantic and funny story about getting a Happy Ever After, but it also served as a huge epilogue for all the other couples in the Bliss Series and Game Series. I thought it wrapped everything up perfectly.

I LOVE BJ Harvey’s books and she has never disappointed me with any book I have read by her. I knew she would give my all time favorite cast of characters the best ending yet!!

In Game Planner we follow Jase and Natalie’s road to their HEA. This book can be read as a standalone but I wouldn’t recommend it. This story is told solely from Natalie’s POV. I thought the flow and pace of this story was perfect. This is a fairly quick read. I was able to finish it in a couple of hours. But it didn’t lack for anything. I felt truly complete once I finished reading this book.

All I can really say is read this series…you won’t want to miss meeting all these fabulous characters. Definitely one of my favorite rom-com series to date :)

I accepted to read Game Planner in exchange for an honest review from the author. It does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.

**4.5 stars**

Holy cow. This book was adorable! I couldn't stop smiling! I adored Natalie and Jase. Jase made me swoon so hard, especially towards the end.

“Princess, I wouldn't be a worthy king if I didn't give you your heart's desire. This day has been eight months in the making, so sit back and relax - everything has been taken care of.”


I flew through this book. I almost finished it in one sitting, but I ended up going to bed and decided to finish in the morning. I have missed this gang and I'm excited that we will see Abi's 4 brothers next in a new series! I am so excited!

MY FAVORITE QUOTE EVER:

“Most of us come from different worlds yet one by one, we've all been embraced into this now tight group of close friends who will always have each other's backs, will always offer truth bombs when needed, and always provide shoulders to cry on. We may be different in many ways, but there's one thing that ultimately binds us: love.”


Guys, please read this series! It is such an amazing ride and you meet some really amazing characters! I adored this series so much!

B.J. Harvey has managed to write the perfect ending for this amazing series in a way that really brings the series together. Characters from both the Bliss series and Game series made appearances in this story in humorous ways that once again reminded me why I loved these characters so much. Both of these series are one of my favourite reads and Game Planner just added to the series.

Game Planner had everything I wanted in the story, there were so many hot and swoon-worthy moments that featured the perfect couple. there were so many moments that had me laughing and smiling within the story due to the funny content that the characters talked about within the story. I absolutely loved the characters and found that Jase was the most swoon-worthy book boyfriend that I absolutely loved reading about in this story. Nat was the best with her crazy ways. I absolutely cracked up laughing during her first fight with Jase and the way she had a go at Matt.

B.J. Harvey has outdone herself with this story and I am so excited to read whatever she has coming out next.

Advanced copy provided for an honest review.

This is my 1st BJ Harvey book, somehow I had not had the pleasure of reading one until right now. Wow, I guess I was missing out all along!

Right from the moment Natalie locked eyes with Jase at that bar, I was hooked! Natalie was a riot, a bit of a wild child with no filter and the playful, sexy Jase seemed understand her enough to be her perfect match. Between the 'this or thats', the silly but super sexy dirty talk and all that hotness between them, I breezed through the quirky chapters of their life together with a smile at all the witty banter from Jase and Nat and every one of their close circle of friends and family. I enjoyed the hell out of Nat's parents..ALL of them..now I can see that her free spirited uniqueness came naturally! It was in the genes!

What an adorable years long adventure full of love, humor and enough steaminess to fog all the windows! A match made in heaven. I'm so glad to have had the chance to read this fun, sexy and light hearted BJ Harvey book and I know it won't be the last.

Game Planner brings us Jase and Natalie’s story, and the last book in the Game series. Each of the books can be read as a stand-alone but I highly recommend you read them all to get the full picture and journey by reading them all.

Game Planner was a sweet and romantic story about getting a Happy Ever After. It also gave us a huge conclusion to all the other couples from the Bliss Series and Game Series. I know that each of the books got their ending but to have it all wrapped up nicely in this book was wonderful. This book had lots of moments full of laughter and swoon worthy times. The chemistry between these two just pours out of the pages.

Thank you BJ Harvey for writing such wonderfully, enjoyable characters from the Bliss and Game series, they will all be missed. It has be a fantastic journey to have gone on.

Natalie Chase is the best outspoken girl ever, and totally my spirit animal. She meets Jase, when she's the second on a double date with her bestie, and they end up dating for real, as their chemistry is off the charts HOT! Like light the skies up, HOT HOT HOT! They go through everything together for some time, until she starts to wonder why he hasn't asked her to marry him, and finally, they're about to get married. But why can't she figure out what is going to happen at this wedding? This story was perfect, without OW/OM drama, which was amazing to me, as these two are simply perfect together. I know I laughed hard throughout, especially since Nat has a very original way with words. I did wonder why he took so long to make an honest woman out of her, but Jase is a man with a plan so what could I say? Well I could say that I HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO ALL!

Jase wants Nat and he going to do everything in his power to have her because she is perfect for him. Jase understand she a little crazy but loves her regardless even her very unconventional family.

Nat is totally freaking out because they are finally getting married and she has no say in anything. She feels out of control but is finding that she will try to go along with it because she loves Jase and wants to be married more than anything. But what she doesn't know is what Jase has planned. Its a great surprise.

I really liked this book. But Nat crazy drove me a tad crazy and seemed to make the book drag on. She created drama when there wasn't any. Jase is a saint and I loved him and his patience with Nat. It shows true love to love someone for everything they are the good, bad and ugly. This wasn't my favorite book in the series but I did enjoy it and their story.

5 star Review Game Planner (Game #6) by BJ Harvey
This is a quick read but thoroughly enjoyable. This is the final book in the Game series and what a high to finish on.
There were so many swoon worthy moments throughout this story that I found myself constantly sighing. Not only that but there was so much fun and laughter that you couldn’t help but be captivated by Nat and Jase’s story.
I absolutely adored the quirkiness of Natalie; she is such a fabulous character that you cannot help but be drawn to her and her crazy.
When Jase set’s his focus on her I doubt she realizes the plans he has in store for her will be so all consuming.
The banter and camaraderie between Nat and Jase, their friends and the crazy that makes up their families made this a heat warming story to read.

I had the time of my life reading this book. I swooned and laughed my way through it. And for a moment there, I cried a little bit.

Nat and Jase had already captured my heart in Mia and Cam's story, but getting to read theirs made me fall in love with them all over again. I loved reading about their firsts, and about some highlights of their relationship. Their chemistry pours out of the pages. I love how passionate they are about each other. They are not just in a relationship, the power of their connection goes straight to your heart. They are so understanding of each other.

Even though it's a short story, there is nothing short on the quantity of emotions this book will make you feel.

Sexy, funny and deliciously sweet.

Game Planner is book 6 and the final book in the Game Series and what a way to end the series, B.J. Harvey certainly saved the hottest til last. This may have been a quick read but that doesn’t mean it’s lacking because this novella has it all, I laughed, I swooned and I sighed many times throughout my read and it left me with all the feels I expect in a great book. A perfect ending to a great series and one of the things I loved most was that we had characters from the Bliss and the Game Series making an appearance which tied everything up nicely. The chemistry was sizzling , the banter was funny and the characters adorable so what more could you want, this was a perfect ending to a great series.

Reviewed For Angel Babe's Blog!!

An absolutely fantastic end to an amazing series!! Nat and Jase are getting married, they have made it through all the bombs in the road and are ready for their HEA!! No wedding is official unless there is a few seconds of cold feet or a few doubts in this case Nat is having some issues, remember it's supposed to be "happy wife- happy life"!! This couple is meant to be together their chemistry is insanely hot and they can't seem to keep their hands off each other!! What I loved the most was the catch up of all our other favorite characters and seeing what they are all doing now!! This is a funny, HOT short read and I highly recommend it the perfect end to a perfect series!!

I have to say, I love this series so much. And all the people, from Game series & Bliss series, that are in it. Daniel, “Superman”, has always been my absolute favorite. But now, Jase is tied neck & neck with him. I am completely & totally in love and enamored with Jase (insert heart eyes here lol). He is funny, sexy, romantic and what every girl wants. And Natalie, she’s just driving the crazy train lol. She’s crazy, and loving and amazing in her Nat way. This was legit the perfect ending for this series. Oh, and just so you know, I cried more than I had anticipated. But it was because of all good feels. I’m telling you, amazing!

Oh my, where do I start with this one??! So I am coming to the game late as I've just read the last book in the Game series first...but even though it's Ms. Harvey's last book in the series, it DEFINITELY will not be MY last, as I'm addicted to these characters.

Game Planner is a swoony, sweet, ridiculously sexy, crazy train and I loved every hot delicious second. Jase and Nat go together like PB&J and are definite proof of every pot having it's lid! I adored the friend group and can't wait to go back and read all their epic love stories!

I promise you'll love the player AND the game in this one!

For me this is more of a 4.5 stars.
Purely because it just wasn't long enough! I needed more!! And I needed babies!!!
We fall in love with the main characters right from the very beginning and then it's like "hold on to ya knickers girls!! This is gonna be quick!" And then BAM the end! And I was like 😭😭😭 this can't be it!!
But it was!! & Now I'm mad that I didn't read it slower!
Take in & digest every single letter. Cos now it's done & the series is over & I feel like doing a Joey "why God, why??!!!!!!"
My love for B.J Harvey is still super strong, but I could've done with a few couple hundred pages.

Game Planner is the final title is the sixth and final title in the game series, and as well as revisiting some of our favorite characters from the Bliss and Game series, it ties together everything beautifully.

Although a slightly shorter read, Nate and Jase's story is a fun, yet emotional story full of heat, heart and humor.

The banter is not only witty, but fun, flirtatious and will have leave you laughing out loud.

I highly recommend this title if you are a fan of romantic comedies, and in particular the Game series, and if you haven't read the previous books, definitely add them to your to be read list!

This was the first book I read in this series and I'm glad the author wrote it as a standalone. She did "introduce" me to the whole cast of characters and at times it was hard to keep everyone straight but by the end of the story i had a grasp on it. I will be going back to the beginning.

Nat and Jace's story is beyond romantic, loving and funny. I did find myself tearing up with happy tears and if only a man like Jace really existed the world would be a better place. They had the perfect love story from beginning to end and it never felt over the top. Would definitely recommend.

This is the last novella in the Game series and while it is the sixth bok in the series, it can be read on a stand alone basis.

This was a quick, fun read. The relationship between Jase and NAT was lovely and thy were a real delightful couple but I wish the story had been a little longer and the relationship side of things had delved a litle deeper.

The story was sweet, sexy and swoony and as we have come to expect provided a lot of giggles. if you’re looking for a feel good read, you can go no wrong with this book.

I am trying my best to write a review worthy of the scene I loved so much in this book without giving any of it away. Basically put, any girl (whether she would admit it or not) would LOVE to have Jase in their life. He makes the best part of the book even better! I will say, I thought Nat was me in book form - everything that could go wrong, was going wrong!!! I won't spoil any more than that...just know that Jase is behind everything! There were so many emotions, my eyes and my heart were not okay when the book ended - in the best possible way!!!! Happy tears!

Jase wins the Game!

Yup! Jase for the win.
I have honestly never, felt like I am swooning over a character as much as I did with Jase! He raised the Game to another level entirely.
Jase and Nat have been a couple for most of this series and I was delighted to see their HEA unfold. I am now debating which one of these guys is my absolute favourite, but today it is definitely Jase.
This book made me smile from start to finish. It is full of happiness, love and hotness.
I am sad to see the end of this series,, but I have to say, it went out with a bang!

I absolutely adored this book. Nat's unconventional family was hilarious and definitely one of my favorite portions of the book.
For the last book in the Game series, BJ Harvey blew this one out of the water with Nat and Jace..... ohhhh Jace...was he ever the sweetest????

Personally my favorite parts were when the kept bringing up giving her anal virginity only to her husband, and the follow up discussions about "brown town"! Hilarious!!

Great read - you will definitely enjoy it!!

As sad as I was to find this was the last book in the series I have to admit I loved how everything came together. Although this was a fast read it was packed with so many amazing things. Having all the characters comes together was perfect and seeing how this book unfolds had my laughing and sighing (in a good way) at the same time. I love Bj's writing she truly has romance down pat. This was truly the ended any reader could ask for and I can't wait to see what world Bj creates for us next.

Lots of everything is in this one...humor, spicy times, romance, laughs and intrigue! This book and series will have you glued to your kindle! Loved this couple and I feel confident to guarantee you will too!

The perfect book to end such an awesome series. The heartwarming moments as well as all the laughs these characters brought was simply wonderful. I loved that the characters from both the Bliss and the Game series were all inter connected and I am looking forward to the next series that features Abi's brothers, hoping for appearances by the crazy, fun loving, family and friends that made these books such great reads! I Highly recommend reading these books.

This is the sixth and final book in this novella series, and it could not have had a more perfect ending than this one. Nat and Jase are perfect for each other, as she is a free spirit with no filter, and he accepts and loves all of her quirky and craziness. This is a well written story which had witty banter, and is a humorous, sweet and romantic story. I was enthralled throughout and look forward to reading more from this talented author, whose work I recommend for all.
