Duke: Faking the Play by Connor Crais, Kayley Loring

4.0

This is book three in the Boston Tomcat series and is about the team's placekicker, Callum "Duke" Duquette, and British actress, Millie Darden. Duke is a single father to eleven-year-old Chloe and is all about doing what is best for the team and his daughter. He has a meet cute with Millie in a Boston bookstore that gets caught by the paparazzi. Instead of putting a stop to it, they agree to a fake relationship. It will keep his teammates and their wives/girlfriends from constantly trying to set him up and she will have a date to her brother's wedding.

Millie is a breath of fresh air to Duke's grumpy and broody attitude. I loved that he always sighed around her, though. She seemed to like it, too. They start to spend time together and with his daughter while she is in Boston. Soon, their feelings venture into the real territory. But, what happens if their secret gets out?

I enjoyed this book and had a few good laughs. Chloe was super sweet and adorable. I can't wait to listen to the audiobook.

Thank you to the authors for an advanced readers copy. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
