Not My Match (The Game Changers #2) by Ilsa Madden-Mills

This is an honest review for an arc received.

“It pays to keep an open mind, but not so open your brains fall out.”

Gieselle Riley is the super smart nerdy girl, who’s convinced everything going wrong in her life currently, is due to her birthday curse. She’s got big plans for her life and has a list to prove it. After a failed engagement and not so great dates via an online dating app, she’s looking to turn her luck around. But after a fire at her apartment building, she’s considering her options. Never in a million years does she see herself living with Devon Walsh. Once she finds out her brother-in-law Jack (from Not My Romeo) told Devon her biggest secret, she’s now on a mission.

“You’re like every guy’s wet dream for a farm girl – you know that, right?”

Devon Walsh is a hot, sexy, tattooed star football player and also best friends with Gieselle’s brother-in-law Jack. Although a chance run in with Gieselle ended poorly, he’s determined to apologize. When he comes to her rescue after her apartment fire, he offers her a place to stay. Devon has secrets that he keeps closely guarded. Will he open up to his quirky roommate who he promised to watch out for? What happens when the nerdy girl breaks down the defenses of the hot, alpha male football star?

“Out of the hurricane of my life, out of everyone I know, she’s become a true constant, a calm breeze that eases me.”

This is a 5 star touchdown! If you’re looking for a book with witty banter, fun loving characters that you can’t help but root for, brains and braun, and hot sexy times, then this is the book for you! These two are perfect for each other. I love a good sports romance and this one is right at the top of my list. Get ready for an opposites attract, steamy, sweet love story. Can’t wait for Aiden’s book!
