4,5* lovely story and so heartwarming
The story of the two just took me by surprise. I was expecting more drama and angst after reading the blurb but I’m happy it ended as sweet, slow burn, get-to-know you kind of romance.
I also believe that many things in our lives happen because there is a reason behind them. And that was this kind of story. Very well written, with light words and perfectly paced plot. Enjoyable read that kept me reading in one sitting. And I was really keen to see how the full story will unravel. Sweet and heartwarming, with lots of positive vibes.
Getting to know you, getting to know all about youOh boy there is my theme song for this book. Nikki went to her best friends wedding in Vegas. This is a marriage arrange this was not spontaneous. The groomsmen Marcus, one of the famous basketball players was familiar with Nikki before getting to their destinations in Vegas. He volunteers he mentors he gets back to the community. Which is an a line with Nikki’s job. So he helps her at the soup kitchen. Nikki unfortunately is engaged. Charles attends the wedding for her best friend as her plus one. The problem is he did not pay attention and left the wedding reception early. Well as they say what happens in Vegas does not stay in Vegas especially when you find out as you’re supposed be getting married to your fiancé that you were already married. This was very develop characters. Very Crazy for Nikki to make decisions about her life. Marcus wants to get to know her. Because he’s refusing to get the wedding annulled. This is reluctantly agreed upon with three rules to fall back on. It is nice to read the book and how Marcus believes that it’s his wife that the rules of her having some natural interaction as a couple. No cliffhanger..a great read.

Okay read
Final Play is the second book in the Off The Court series. This story was a mix for me as there were parts that I loved and others not very much. I think it was the slow pace that did me in the most. I have read other books by Charlotte Dinnis and not had this issue. Maybe it was the mood I was in while reading or maybe I have read too many sports based romances. In the end this book came down in the middle for me…..not horrible but now fantastic, just okay/good

Imagine planning a wedding only to find out that you are already married! Shocked to say the least, Nikki has to go to her husband Mark to get an annulment but Marcus has another plan all together. He wants to see where a relationship with Nikki can take them and asks for three dates to determine whether they should stay together or divorce. This is a charming story and will have you cheering for this couple! I voluntarily agreed to receive an Arc of this book for an honest review.

Final Play is the second book in the Off The Court series.
I loved this story and found it to be a truly enjoyable read. The characters are charming, lovable, and realistic. The storyline is well written and entertaining, capturing my interest from the start. To find out that you are married when you are getting your marriage license would be quite a shock. The story has drama, humour, family, friendships, chemistry, and a second chance for love. Will Marcus win Nikki over for the second time or will she stay true to her longtime boyfriend, Charles?
I read and reviewed this book with no obligation.
This was an enjoyable sweet, pure, love story. The storyline was well developed, great character chemistry, friendships, family, and learning to enjoy every minute. It touched on homelessness, and medical situations. I really enjoyed how the characters grew throughout the story. The humor is written perfectly in the story. This was my first time reading anything by this author and I would definitely read again. It would be awesome to read a story about Maya.
