Unlucky 13 Series

Review

This is a steamy enemy and rivals to lovers story of two footballers (soccer) who can’t seem to stay away from each other.

Jordan and Theo have been at each other since they first met when they were 13. Now that they find themselves on the same team, no matter how hard they try they keep from riling each other up and making headlines for their rivalry.

This is how these two hotheads find themselves at the Black Diamond Resort. Because if they can’t figure out how to work together they could both find themselves being transferred to other teams.

A surprising thing happens when two people are forced together. They end up finding out that what they know of the other person isn’t who they actually are.

This was a well-structured story that took you through it all. The tension of their rivalry, the vulnerability of breaking down the walls, and them both figuring out what they really want.

Reckless was a lot of fun and deliciously steamy.

Synopsis

Welcome to Black Diamond Resort and Spa…

An ultimatum from my football team manager landed me here on this far-flung tropical island, where I’m expected to work on my issues in a rehab centre for the elite.

But I’m not the only one here to curb their reckless behaviour. My teammate, Theo Lewin, has been banished to the island with me. Now we’re supposed to learn how to work together, otherwise we risk being transferred to another team.

There’s one small problem. We’ve hated each other since the day we met.

Forced to confront our issues with nowhere to escape, we’re expected to not only spend our days together, but our nights, too. This can only end one way. In disaster.

Except… I’m starting to see Theo in a different light. He’s not the aloof, pretentious person I thought he was. And from the way things are heating up between us, he might see me as something more than just the cocky, shallow thorn in his side.

There’s a saying… what happens on the island, stays on the island.

Before we go back to reality, we’re going to be reckless one last time.

Reckless is a standalone M/M romance between two professional football (soccer) teammates, with enemies to lovers and bi-awakening themes.
