Hello, book friends, and welcome back to another NetGalley book review! Today, we’re taking a look at Playing Flirty by Shameez Patel. Many thanks to Forever Publishing and the author for the digital review copy.
I love a romance that brings in the nerdy goodness, and I’m so pleased to see how many of these have been coming out lately. Let’s dig into my review!
Playing Flirty Synopsis
In Playing Flirty, Rose likes to follow her plan. She had a chaotic childhood, and spreadsheets have become her way of keeping things under control. But Rose also has a dream — getting the board game she created to become a reality. So, she decides to enter it into a board game contest. The only problem? It needs to be perfect.
Enter William, her best friend’s brother and her longtime game night rival. He just so happens to provide professional feedback on games. He might be the one who can make her game great… if they can handle so much time alone together.
