The love game By Emma Hart




His challenge? Make her fall in love with him.
Her challenge? Play the player.
Until life changes the rules of the game.

Maddie Stevens hated Braden Carter on sight. Arrogant, egotistical, and the playboy of the University of California, Berkeley, he's everything her brother Pearce has taught her to despise. So why, when the girls challenge her to play the player, doesn't she say no? She doesn't know either.

Braden wanted fiery little Maddie the second he laid eyes on her - and he'd do anything to have her, hence why he's agreed to make her fall in love with him. After all, it's the only way he'll get what he wants. Sex.

But, as Braden discovers, there's more to the girl from Brooklyn than he ever imagined - and he can't help but care about the broken girl behind those pretty green eyes.

Maddie finds Braden isn't just a walking erection - he actually has feelings. He can be sweet, funny and his good looks don't exactly hurt. That means trouble - but when her brother Pearce turns up in Berkeley begging for her help, she realises Braden and Pearce aren't so alike anymore.

And maybe, just maybe, they're exactly what each other needs.


Ahhhh, what can I say. I love this book and have read it a few times now, but only just getting around to reviewing. So for those who haven't yet met Maddie and Branden, then get ONE CLICKING!!. 

I'm a huge fan of American College Romance novels. I don't know why. It may be because of their surroundings, their social life's and what have you. I just find it more realistic than I would if someone here from the UK were to write one based here in the UK. 
The Love Game is just one of the best ones out there. 

Maddie attends a party with a bunch of her friends when she sees the local, walking, male erection. He's a fu*k um and dump um kind of boy, so when Maddie's friends challenge her because she's immune (so she thinks) to his charms, to play the player, she hesitatingly accepts.What she wasn't expecting was for Branden to be someone totally different to who she thought he'd be, her brother. 

Branden is every young girls dream. He's hot, athletic, and charming. He knows what he wants and he isn't afraid to get it. 
When he sees Maddie, he labels her a princess so to speak. Thinking she had a stick up her own ass was a judgment he'd never take back. 
To be honest, it was funny to see the two try not to fall for each other. You could see it coming a mile away, yet, it still didn't ruin the book for you. 

The ending was amazing and like they always say, two wrongs don't make a right, but in this case their wrongs? Made a right.
