Manscaping- the fashion and style column on The Playbook online men’s magazine…and Mia’s new job. Well…internship. It was only for six weeks, just so she could get the credits she needed to graduate from university, but they were paying her, so…yeah, her new job. The only problem? She would be working directly under Liam. Not that she had a problem being under Liam. She’d been there once before and it had been the best night of her life, but yeah, that was exactly the problem. She’d been under Liam before and now he was going to be her boss. He probably didn’t even remember her. He’d never called or tried to contact her after a night she would never forget so maybe it hadn’t been so unforgettable for him…but now she would be working directly under him. Yeah. That was going to be a problem.
I am a business owner, artist, cook, mother and wife. I live on the beautiful Sunshine Coast in Queensland, Australia with my wonderful husband, two beautiful sons, a dog and a cat (both of which are female because, hey, we needed to balance all that testosterone!)
I am a ferocious reader with eclectic tastes and have always wanted to write, but never had the opportunity due to one reason or another (excuses, really) until finally taking the bullet between my teeth in 2014 and just making myself do it.
I love to write stories with heart and a message and believe in strong female characters who do not necessarily have to be aggressive to show their strength.
I absolutely every little thing about Liam! I’m so happy Liam and Mia had each other. They were so much fun! I really loved getting to know these two better. They definitely were meant to be! ☺️
Definitely Recommend Book 2 of The Playbook Series, Manscaping by Emma Lea! Saying I recommend Book 2 Manscaping seems like such an understatement. This book is utterly amazing, terrific, relateable, remarkable, hopefully you get my point. But, that's before I even get to Liam, after ahhhhh, swoon-worthy is the first word to pop into my mind & permanently is branded with the name Liam, if only the guy was out there IRL, ahhh. Anyway, I don't want to give any details or spoilers because every last page is so fantastic, that putting the book down will be the furthest thing from your mind once you begin this MUST READ! Yes, 'must read', is overused on alot of books that are very good, even maybe great, but when referring to the book Manscaping, it's 100% accurate! I didn't read The Billionaire's Trap or In Like Flynn before reading Manscaping but I definitely will now, the reason, because I read Manscaping and thoroughly enjoyed it & want more. While the author may have her doubts about writing or may have other things going on in her life (a little tidbit included in the advanced review copy), my only response to the author would be, please erase any doubt from your mind, readers will & do love the books you pen & please, please don't make us wait 1+ years or more for Book 3 of The Playbook Series! Because, even October 2019 is too long to wait for Book 3, or for that matter definitely don't want The Playbook Series to end. And, yes if any doubts, your writing & this series is that good, exceptional actually, your readers won't want to wait for any book in this series & want the books in the series to continue even after Book 3, keep them coming & we will read them! While I did receive an ARC from the author via BookSprout I also purchased the book in support of the author, and I am volantarily leaving my own opinion with this unsolicited, voluntary review.
~sigh~ Liam almost might as well be a regency gothic hero. He’s got all the brooding moodiness to fit the part, and he’s got a wagon train of baggage to explain it. Having read Jonathon’s story already, I was very excited to learn Liam’s opinion of those events. I loved Mia to bits and pieces. I knew I was going to the moment we were introduced to her and I learned that she was a bit of a klutz. We’re kindred spirits in that way. I have some very split reactions to this pair. I badly want to take them and shake some sense into them and at the same time, I want to squeeze them tight in a great big bear hug and tell them it’s all going to turn out okay. I adored watching the antics of their families and friends, but I definitely wanted to shake some sense into that group of interfering busybodies. I’m now counting down until I can get my hands on the next book in the series. I received a complimentary advanced copy of this book through Booksprout.
The Playbook and its tribe of hot men and the smart, strong and gorgeous women that become part of their world make this latest book a must read. Liam and Mia have a lot going on and that’s what makes this story come alive. Bringing characters from my favorite Billionaire series makes the story richer. Without giving anything away, I can’t wait until Carter gets his comeuppance! 😁
This was an excellent read. I loved Liam. He was just too yummy. It took a while to warm up to Mia . There was just something about her that was off for me.
