Publisher's summary
The minute I hear my brother's best friend was traded to my city's pro football team, I know this is my shot. There's no way I'm missing my chance to give my first crush my V-card.
When Grayson Nash walks into the bar, he has no idea I'm little Ava Maxwell, the one he promised to look after when he moved to Vegas.
After a sizzling, sheet-clutching first experience of my dreams, we exchange numbers and a plan to extend our undeniable connection into something more. I promise myself I'll tell him the truth about who I am… eventually.
He finds out before I tell him, and he wants nothing to do with me. But when my ex won't take the hint, Grayson swoops in pretending to be my new boyfriend.
Now I'm dating the defensive back—or faking it, anyway. It's not fake for me, though, and lines blur with stolen glances and searing touches. But between the promise he made to my brother and the secrets stacking up, I have no idea how to turn my fake boyfriend into my real-life forever love.
Dating the Defensive Back is a steamy football, brother's best friend, fake dating romance from Amazon top ten bestselling author Lisa Suzanne.

Story
Obituary writer Nadine Barbault doesn’t mind being called “Lady Death”. It suits the ice queen persona she’s cultivated to survive the fast-paced Toronto Herald. So when Nadine learns that famous (and reclusive) author Dot Voline has died, she doesn’t hesitate to run the obituary…only to discover that Dot is very much alive. Nadine’s screw-up has brought Wesley Chen of the rival Spear no end of joy—she’s been a thorn in his extremely ambitious side for years. But the renewed interest in Dot also surfaced chatter about a mysterious past scandal.

Story
Gabriel Ferrara is tall and handsome, and most days she wants to stab her eyes out with a pencil, anything to stop her seeing his perfection. How any female could work in these conditions and not be completely besotted with him is beyond her. Then he opens his mouth and she remembers why. He's bossy and sarcastic, with a wit so sharp it could cut glass. Every weekend is the same . . . while he's off living his dream life, she's counting down the days until Monday when she sees him again.

Story
Romance can be a little complicated when you get sucked into a wormhole. Just ask high school English teacher June Flint. One little solar flare happens and suddenly you find yourself 85 years in the future. Eighty-five years from your dream job. Your ailing mother whose only companion in this world is you. Your favorite stuffed-crust pizza from DeLucia’s on Sunday nights. But when June’s cell phone inexplicably picks up a signal, she’s able to call back to the present—more specifically, four weeks before she accidentally time traveled.

Story
A forbidden romance with my brother’s hockey teammate wasn’t on my to-do list when I moved across the country… Neither was getting locked out of a friend’s place wearing next to nothing. Or spending the night with the sexy stranger who rescues me. But I’m trying to get out of my comfort zone so getting out of the rest of my clothes with him seems like a good way to start. In the morning, I learn the filthy-mouthed man with the talented hands is not only the hotshot new hockey player on my brother’s team: he’s also–wait for it–my brand new roommate.

Anyone but her. Eva Adams—the entitled, picture-perfect cheer princess. Incapable of empathy, patently manipulative, and absolutely beautiful. I can't afford her drama—I just want to play my last year of hockey without being kicked out of TU, but there she is on my first day back. Crying. In a weak moment, I make her an offer. An agreement I never thought she'd take. Except she surprises me, and now I'm faced with a dilemma. Protect my secrets… or win the girl.

But after my dating disaster at a hockey game all caught on the jumbotron I somehow have the attention of three men. Nathan Armstrong is the hot, older, sophisticated billionaire owner of the team.

Dancing on bar tops means the night is going great. Exiting the bar hauled over the shoulder of Heston University's infamous hockey captain? Not my idea of a good time. But my would-be knight would have to do. I needed an escape route from my brother… his biggest rival. Easton Blake is the perfect reminder of why I avoid hockey players. Cocky. Frustratingly sexy. Accustomed to every girl in his orbit falling for his charm. With his sultry smile that tells me he knows all the ways to make girls come undone with his touch, I'm almost the next score on his stats.

I learned the hard way after heartbreak that one and done is my MO. Then Emery, a past one-night-stand, moves in next door. I can't stop obsessing about her legs wrapped around my head again. I propose a friends-with-benefits arrangement and to my delight, she agrees. Passions explode and boundaries blur as I re-explore every inch of her curvy body. Our superficial game deepens faster than a slapshot from center ice. In ...

I accepted the live-in personal coaching job with a pro football superstar before I knew who I'd be working with. It turns out he's the quarterback I hooked up with last Halloween—the same one who asked me to leave his private suite at the nightclub when his girlfriend showed up. His girlfriend situation is complicated, but now I'm forced to live with my one-night stand along with his fiancée, who happens to be the team owner's daughter, and their baby. I'm supposed to be coaching him to make better decisions. Meanwhile, he's strutting around, wearing nothing but a towel.

My new boss—Alexander Bane. Aptly named since he’s the bane of my existence. Please isn’t in his vocabulary. He grunts, growls, and demands. If only he didn’t look so sexy when doing so. If only his mouth weren’t so addictive when kissing mine. He’s quickly becoming my favorite boss. Which is wrong. My new assistant is an unwelcomed distraction. Snarky, witty, always smiling. Constantly putting me in my place. Making me second-guess my decisions.

Especially when you find out they work for your dad—after you’ve already slept with them. Moving to my parents’ small town was supposed to be the fresh start I was looking for. When a disastrous Valentine’s Day leads to an unexpected encounter with a sexy stranger, and ends with the hottest night of my life, I didn’t think I would ever see Whip again.

Then I got to Safe Haven Ranch and met my new boss.

I don’t date football players. I’m not interested in the ones who are a decade older than me. I want nothing to do with the ones who play on the same team as my brothers, and I certainly avoid the ones who spend more time in strip clubs than kids’ clubs. So why do I suddenly find myself faking a relationship with Ben Olson, the bad boy tight end who fits every descriptor on my naughty list?

I tell her I'm in town for a job offer when the truth is my buddy just asked me to leave my quiet existence in San Diego and unretire so I can lead the new Vegas Heat expansion team to the championship.

Loved this story. Just wish all of the male speaking parts (even from the female pov) were recorded by the guy and vice versa. It was a little weird at first.

I really enjoyed this story! I like how it tied into previous Ace’s series books and also brings in the other Nash Brothers to bring the series and world into the next era.
I really enjoyed watching Grayson & Ava connect. I didn’t like that they had to break up but it felt so real and I loved how she didn’t give him a second chance right away. They got to know each other more and let their friendship blossom as he healed her broken trust and bruised heart. 🥰🥰🥰
This gem was narrated by Kelsey Navarro-Foster & Thor Tom and I thought they meshed PERFECTLY for these characters.

Grayson & Ava!
Lisa Suzanne had me at kitchen sink cookies! This is a fun and flirty listen with just the right amount of angst and sizzle. Grayson Nash knows his career is coming to an end, and what better way to go out than on his own terms. Trading to Las Vegas to play long his younger brother and be coached by his oldest is just icing on the cake. So then why does he mess his personal life up the first chance he gets?Ava is his best friend's sister, but he hasn't seen her in years. Little does he know that she is the girl he took home! She knows, and now when the cat is out of the bag, there needs to be some cleanup! How does it all turn out? This is a fun, fast paced, fake romance that had me glued to my ear buds. Nash is a tough nut for sure, but his he has the heart of a teddy bear. Ava is sweet on the outside, but focused on what she wants on the inside. Plus cookies! I love a good one! This is a must listen for all those that love sports, brother's best friend, fake relationship romances. It's worth every minute!
Kelsey Navarro Foster and Tor Thom are our story tellers and together they sizzle! Foster finds her niche in Ava! She is quick witted, fast thinking and passionate about everything she loves and each scene comes alive with the narration. Nash is stubborn yet his charismatic personality keeps things moving. Thom dials into each facet of his personality and comes through with and amazing character. These two worked their magic and made for an incredible listen.

Good until it wasn't
Started out great. Kept my interest until it got to the "third act." Then it just got corny, and there was too much back and forth and whining.
Also, Tor Thom has never been one of my favorites, due to his reading style and cadence. That being said, this is probably the best read of his I've heard. The female voice actor was good.
Overall, this is not a bad book, and I would recommend if you're into the feel good type of book.

Overall: 2.5/5

What I’m Starry-Eyed Over:
🤩 The beautiful cover—I wanted to fall in love with this story just so I could have this beauty on my shelf.
🤩 I loved the first quarter of this book—these two hotties have a great connection and are so good together. The plot is captivating and fun, going right into the storyline. All the feels.
🤩 The secret crush, pining, and identity. The hitting on and flirting. The one-night-stand.
🤩 Kelsey Navarro does a great job giving all the feels for Ava’s character. I especially love her performance on Ava’s drunk breakup call.
🤩 The end is quite cute and sweet.
What I’m Wishing/Dizzy About:
💫 I’m so sad. I want to love this one because it has my two favorite tropes—brother’s best friend and fake dating. But it felt so annoying and frustrating to me. I need to love my MCs, and Grayson just isn’t ready to be loved in this story. It has way too long of seriousness and secrets.
💫 Grayson Nash needs some serious therapy, way more than his mom’s little chat.
💫 The MCs seemed to lose their chemistry and connection.
💫 I almost DNFed but I had just purchased the audiobook after being late on the eARC.
💫 It’s so hard to rate the narration when the story is irritating me. Tor Thom seemed flat, just telling the story, but it could have been the writing or that I didn’t like Grayson as a character.
