Rafferty (Pittsburgh Titans, Book #15)
Sawyer Bennett
Rafferty Abrams has been having the time of his life since joining the Pittsburgh Titans, but a poorly thought out one-night stand is about to cause unwanted drama with potentially serious repercussions.
As a member of the Pittsburgh Titans, I’m afforded a certain level of leniency in my behavior. The perks of being a celebrity, I suppose. But a run-in with my “one-night stand turned borderline stalker” has me crossing all sorts of lines with a beautiful but unsuspecting grocery store employee. When I surprise the complete stranger with a giant kiss and quiet plea to help a guy out, she not only plays along but gets my blood racing like I’ve never experienced before. Score one for Rafferty Abrams.
Temperence Martin isn’t just the stunning girl in the international foods aisle. Tempe is also a devoted daughter taking a break from college to help her mother as she heals from a serious accident. That includes making sure her younger brother stays on track with school and keeping everything running at home. To say she’s burning the candle at both ends is an understatement, but that doesn’t mean I didn’t see the spark in her eyes after our spontaneous make out session. That’s exactly what has me coming back for more, even if I use that pesky stalker as my excuse.
As we get to know one another, I realize a fake relationship just isn’t going to work. I want something other than a ruse, something real, and lucky for me, so does Tempe. But when my mistake of a hookup starts telling lies in retaliation for my alleged betrayal, things get messy. For me and for Tempe, who has found herself embroiled in a love triangle that doesn’t even exist. I can only hope Tempe isn’t scared away by the baggage I unintentionally brought to our relationship because the truth is, I saw my happily ever after with her the first time our lips met.

Review:
This one was so much fun! From the meet cute to the fake dating to the oops, it’s real now! dating, this was a pleasure to read. Honestly, my only real complaint is that a grown adult Rafferty absolutely should have gone to HR or Brienne before he did–I get why he didn’t right away, but once he spent more time socially with Brienne (or as his stalker got more and more OTT) he really should have manned up sooner. (Not right away, of course–I want the story to happen, and that meet cute depends on the drama!–but it was kind of silly that no one in his friend group even pointed him in that direction.)
But anyway…
Rafferty and Tempe were just so darn cute together, and I loved their journey from fake to real. I did like how Ms Sawyer brought them together and enjoyed how quickly she fit into his friend group and how he made a home for himself in her family. It was just a super cute (and steamy!) read from start to finish.
The two narrators did a lovely job reading the book and really added to the experience as well.
Bring on the next Titan! (Not Penn yet, but soon!) I’m ready 🙂
