About this ebook
Eleanor is content with her boring life—mostly. She’s even fine being the quirky sister in a bevy of beauties. So imagine her surprise when one of her brother’s Sydney Smoke mates hits on her at an engagement party. Her. The weird sister, who wears vintage dresses and prefers her books to parties.
Bodie is shocked the next morning to find the soft, sexy virgin who seduced him with corsets is his best friend’s little sister. If he could kick his own ass, he would. And two months later, she’s got an even bigger surprise for him. Now he needs to convince the corset-loving wallflower that he loves her uniqueness if they’ve got a chance at forever.
He always did love a challenge…

Amy Andrews
Amy war ein Kind, das immer eine Geschichte im Kopf hat. Ihr Lieblingsfach war English und sie liebte es Geschichten zu schreiben. Sollte sie einen Aufsatz mit nur 100 Worten schreiben – schrieb Amy 1.000 Worte. Anstatt nur eine Seite bei dem Thema „ Beschreibt auf einer Seite eure Sommerferien“ abzugeben – schrieb Amy zehn Seiten. In ihrer Kindheit beobachtete Amy ihre Mutter immer beim Schreibmaschineschrieben - ihre Mutter, eine Autorin verfasste Liebesromane. Im Alter von 11 Jahren las Amy heimlich die Liebesromane ihrer Mutter und entdeckte dadurch, was sie eines Tages werden wollte – Autorin. Ihren ersten Liebesroman schrieb sie in 10 Tagen – ein Kapitel an einem Tag. Unnötig zu sagen, dass sie den Roman bereits im Kopf hatte, sie schrieb einfach ihre vorhandenen Gedanken auf und schaffte so ihr ungeheures Schreibpensum. Als Amy wieder nach Australien – ihrem Heimatland – zurück kehrte, entdeckte sie die Welt der Arztromane. Sie selbst als gelernte Krankenschwester war immer dann von einem Roman fasziniert, wenn er die Welt der Medizin möglichst realistisch wiedergegeben hat. Da dieser Wunsch nicht immer erfüllt wurde, beschloss sie, sich selbst dem Schreiben von Arzt-Liebesromanen zu widmen. Heute ist Amy zweifache Mutter und arbeitet teilzeit als Kinderkrankenschwester auf der Intensivstation im Krankenhaus. Sie hat sich zum Ziel gesetzt, bis zu ihrem 40 Lebensjahr 20 Liebesromane zu schreiben. Mehr kann man über Amy Andrews unter www.amyandrews.com.au erfahren.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Playing House by Amy GametSydney Smoke Rugby #5Amy Gamet is becoming one of my go-to authors. Every book I have read by her has been wonderful making me only want to read more of whatever she decides to write. This book delivered again…in all the ways that I was hoping it would ;) Quirky, immersed in the 19th century and the odd duck in her family and community Eleanor Davis is ready to leave her virginity behind. When Bodie Webb, rugby player and friend of her brother, introduces himself to her she thinks, “This is the one to do the deed”. Keeping her identity obscured the two have a night to remember – one and done, she thinks – and off he goes, after calling and asking if there might be more. A few months later when she gets in touch the sizzle is still there. She has something to share and that something is big. Bodie, a true gentleman, steps up, asks her to spend time with him and all seems to be going well until…it’s not. How it all works out right created a book I could not put down. I could so relate to Eleanor and the dilemma she thought she was in. I may not have been as shy as she was or from the back of beyond BUT I still could relate. I loved her quirks and her interests and her ability to state what her needs were then go for what she wanted. I found Bodie to be a wonderful book boyfriend that was so much more than a pretty face with a good body he knew how to use well on the pitch and off. His true interest in Eleanor, ability to stand up for her and loving ways were swoon worthy. The way Ryder, Eleanor’s brother and Bodie’s best friend, came to Bodie’s rescue and how Bodie used the information he was given tied this book up in a big shiny bow creating the perfect book for me to read yesterday. Thank you to NetGalley and Entangled Publishing-Brazen Imprint – This is my honest review.5 Stars
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Playing House started out strong--I loved when Eleanor's vajayjay started talking to her ("Twenty-six years of silence and it chose tonight to go rogue?"--LOL) and her geeky historical romance-loving heart spoke to me from the first page.But...It soon seemed like her newly-awakened body parts were doing more thinking for Eleanor than her actual brain was. She was distracted not once, but twice from telling Brodie some very important news that he really, really needed to know ASAP by that body part's "needs." Brodie would have been totally within his rights to be upset by this, but fortunately for her, he took it in stride. Actually, he took pretty much all of the craziness in this book (far and large said craziness was caused by Eleanor) unbelievably calmly, proving time and time again what a stand up guy he was. Eleanor, by contrast, veered wildly between listening to her newly-vagazzled you-know-what and her Victorian-era "romantic sensibilities" about what her relationship with Brodie should be like instead of, oh, I don't know...talking to him, occasionally?Though there were bits I liked here--the beginning and end especially had some cute, entertaining moments--in the whole I didn't find this one as strong a read as the first three books in the series. (I somehow missed Eleanor's brother/Brodie's BFF's book, Playing With Forever ). Hopefully this is just a one-off, because I usually really enjoy Ms. Andrews' writing.Rating: 2 1/2 stars / CI voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
