Getting Played

Emma Chase2019
A magnificent new romance by New York Times bestselling author Emma Chase. Dean Walker is all about keeping life simple. He's effortlessly talented and intelligent—spending his summers playing drums in the local band and the rest of the year teaching high school in the same Jersey town where he grew up. He likes his love life simple too, enjoying the commitment-free hook-ups his good looks and sexy charm have always made oh so easy. Then he meets Lainey Burrows. And his simple, easy life gets turned upside down. One wild one-night stand was all it was ever supposed to be, so Lainey is shocked when she discovers that her sizzling summer fling is also her son's new math teacher. But that's nothing compared to the most unexpected twist of all—their hot hook-up left Lainey knocked up, and now they're about to become parents. Together. What ensues is an addictive, insatiable, sweet and tender romance that won't be simple, but it will be more than worth the fight. "This story was fast paced, wickedly sharp and, brought to life by supremely stellar narration, it's another unputdownable story I never wanted to end." –Jessica, Angie and Jessica's Dreamy Reads "Getting Played is equal parts funny, sexy, sweet and moving and is superbly narrated by the well-matched team of Andi Arndt and Zachary Webber, who deftly portray both the lighthearted, humorous banter and the more emotional dialogue and intimate moments. The story pulled me in from the start and kept me thoroughly engaged and entertained until it’s sigh-worthy, romantic happily ever after, and it is guaranteed to give the listener all the feels." –Mary Dube, Frolic Media "Getting Played is a downright panty melting, sweep you off your feet audiobook! Throw in the dynamic narration of Andi Arndt and Zachary Webber, that just brought the storyline to a whole new level bliss!! Get ready to have your audio dreams come to life!" –Heather Pollock, Audio Reviewer

Getting Played is a book I read in one sitting. I just couldn't put it down. I loved both Dean and Lainey from the start. I'm also always excited when a main character of a book happens to be a blogger. That's something I always enjoy and I loved getting a glimpse of what she loved to do. Dean Walker is a teacher and coah during the school year, but trades his geeky side to be a rock star during the summer. I loved that there was more than one side to him. He loves being with the band, but trading that to be with his students is something he loves. Dean definitely has a place on my really long book boyfriend list. The way he was with his students was amazing and I was grateful that played a part in this story. Lainey is a strong woman and was able to build a career out of her blogging. That's amazing and so creative. She's a single mom to her teenage son and their bond was something that really stood out in this book. Lainey was really there for him and it's clear he knew that she was there for him. She has a fun family and the descriptions of all of her sisters made me laugh out loud. Lainey and Dean have chemistry and they're proof a one night stand can change your life. Getting Played shows us that when things are meant to be, it will happen. A pregnancy on top of everything definitely made this story interesting and gave it many laugh out loud moments. Seeing the sensitive sides of these characters was really heartwarming. If you're looking for a feelgood, heartwarming romance that will make you laugh out loud, definitely pick up Getting Played. The main characters are amazing, but the side characters really complete this story. And fans of Getting Schooled will be happy to get a glimpse of the characters we got to know in love in that book!
