The Summer Games: Settling the Score

As an Olympic rookie, Andie Foster has spent far more time in her cleats than between the sheets. For 21 years, her Fridaynights have consisted of blocking shots rather than taking them. But now that she’s landed in Rio, she’s ready to see for herself if the rumors about the Olympic Village are true:

The athletes are all sex-crazed maniacs…
The committee passes out condoms like candy…
The games continue long after the medals have been handed out…

As Andie walks the line between rumor and reality, she’s forced into the path of Frederick Archibald, a decorated Olympic swimmer and owner of a sexy British accent—too bad he’s unavailable in a way that “it’s complicated” doesn’t even begin to explain.

In other words: off limits.

It doesn’t matter that he has abs that could bring peace to the Middle East and a smile that makes even the Queen blush; Andie fully intends on keeping her focus on the soccer field. But the Village is small. Suffocating. Everywhere Andie goes, Freddie happens to be there—shirtless, wet from the pool, and determined to show her a whole new meaning of the phrase “international affairs.”

Rachel has done it again! Fans of Scoring Wilder, and Grey’s writing in general, will be absolutely thrilled with this book! Not only do we get to see tons of Kinsley, Becca, and even some Liam, we get to dive head first into the big leagues, the world of professional sports featured on the top athletic level, the Summer Olympic games. To say I was excited for this book would be putting it mildly. I love Grey’s writing, her humor, and story telling. Couple that with a story featuring my favorite sport of all time, soccer, and a cast of sexy athletic characters, and the gold medal is more definitely deserved. The drama and angst keep the reader hooked and the humor is a signature to Grey’s style, a detail that enhances this book to make the reader laugh out loud.Andie is such a fun female lead. She is confident, ready to embrace this new experience and take everything the games have to offer her. So naturally, when the hot British swimmer, Freddie, catches her eye, she is in over her head. Grey does an excellent job of sharing a complicated budding relationship in a way that shares the pros, cons, and emotion of the situation. It is not easy. There are more obstacles than not, but when that connection is solidified, it is hard to resist. I loved how the angst of the love story is real. It is harsh and when things come to light, the backlash is brutal. Grey does not shy away from the hatred and the hurt but instead takes the reader on a journey that opens your eyes to more than what people would normally see.This story could have been cookie cutter and straight forward, but instead Rachel takes the reader on an ride that has surprises at every turn. There are moments that surprised me, turns in the story I was not expecting. They created something even better than I hoped for and I was ecstatic to find out what would happen next. The fun of this book makes it relatable and the heart of this story gives it an emotional edge. While reading, I would smile at the numerous pop culture references and I even found myself on Amazon researching unicorn adult onesies. This book combines everything we love from Grey and presents it in a fun, flirty, and heartfelt package! Do not miss this one. It was well worth the wait!

I am a lover of books, chocolate, reality TV, black labs, and cold weather. Seriously, if I had it my way, I would be curled up on the couch with all of those things… everyday.I live in Texas where I spend my free time writing and reading. My favorite authors include Mindy Kaling & Jonathan Safran Foer. I’m a comedy geek and love all things “funny”. Women like Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, and Mindy Kaling are definitely the biggest inspirations for my writing, though I think my work tends to skew a bit smuttier than theirs.
