I want to jump for joy on this adorable and pleasurable read

This series has been an up and down roller coaster for me and I’m so HAPPY it gets better with each book.

Hannah is a twenty-four year old science geek who doesn’t have the best experience with sex. Will is Hannah’s brother’s best friend from childhood. They haven’t seen each other in years, but Hannah decides to catch up with Will again for old time sake. Hannah is no longer the young, little sister Will is use to seeing and when Hannah asks Will for sex advice, he can’t deny her.

I liked Will in Beautiful Stranger and he is even better in Beautiful Player. I also like how nerdy Hannah is. They become friends and bond over jogging in the mornings. It’s really cute seeing Will train Hannah and help her with her love life. Hannah isn’t a virgin, but she is differently not experienced. Chole and Sara from Beautiful Bastard and Beautiful Stranger, give Hannah a little make-over to get her up to par with the dating world.

Hannah goes on a few dates and Will coaches her on how to act and what is appropriate and not appropriate behavior. Hannah has no filter and is really easy going with Will. I love this! She asks him random things, like if girls really do make the sounds she hears from watching porn. It’s just too funny and too cute!

Yes, Will is a crazy player, he has two hook-buddies, he meets weekly. Who does that?! BUT he’ also a really sweet guy and great friend. It’s very rare to see a sweet friendship form out of thin air. Yes, Hannah and Will have a history, but I really enjoyed reading the little moments they share and seeing their fast friendship form.

I really enjoyed reading Beautiful Player and it was nice to see the old gang too. We see some progression with Chole, Bennett and Sarah and Max, which is always nice. I am sure there are extra details in the mini-novellas in-between.

I recommend this light-hearted, no fuss-no muss, adorable read. You will be smiling and laughing your socks off!
