This is the third instalment in the Players series. Although I had read the previous book, I had not read the first. This can be read as a stand alone however reading the others will give a little background on some of the secondary characters.

This was definitely my favorite book of this series so far! I have really liked Max from the beginning and couldn't wait to read his story. And Jessi, oh what to say about her. She is probably one of the coolest heroines I have read in a while. She is so lovable, you just can't help but root for her the whole way through. Max, what to say about Max. He is a hard nut to crack and I couldn't wait until he finally gave into his feelings for Jessi. After running from her because he thinks he is not

Max is a tough cookie but that didn't mean he wasn't a big ole softie where his woman is concerned, "his heart contracted and he pulled the comforter over her shoulders, then sifted his fingers through the curls spread out on her pillow. “Sleep, baby. I’ll be right here when you wake up.” I enjoyed this book I loved Max. ...more
Jessi and Max are fantastic. I loved the mystery in the story and the way you're kept guessing until the end. Sure, there were options, but I couldn't make up my mind who was the guilty party until it was revealed. Definitely a book I will be picking up and reading again.

Oh Max…I’ve been so excited to read his story since the very first book in the series. I adored him as Gracie’s over-protective best friend and I just knew he was going to be a great leading man to Jessi. Boy was I right. I loved Max with Jessi. He was so protective of her, even to the point that for years he fought his attraction to her. He thought she deserved better when it didn’t matter what he thought because she had been in love with him for years.

I was rather surprised that this book took the series into a 5 year jump forward, and I didn't really care for the abrupt nature of it!
Jessi and Max were a good couple overall, but the constant age difference comparisons got a bit old at times. The schemes that were cooked up to bring the two of them together were pretty flimsy and unrealistic to me. I did like that this book added in a bit of a sinister suspense twist! However, that twist wasn't worked with much in the book and I felt it was ad ...more

I knew I’d love this one because Crowne did such fabulous things with the first two books and I was so anxious to see what she would do for the oh-so-sexy Max :) Even though he’s done extremely well for himself, Max still feels unworthy of Jessi for so many reasons – the way he grew up, the things he did surviving on the streets, their age difference, his relationship with her family. Jessi though sees the man he is now and is convinced that nothing he’s done can change how she feels about him.

This book turned out to be number 3 in a series. I requested the book on NetGalley because of the cover and the description - famous country singer with a crush on best friend of (in this case) cousin.
Jessi is a 25 year old singer and has had a crush on family friend Max Grayson for 5 years. Max is a professional cage fighter and has also pined for Jessi but he refuses to give in because of his past. He thinks he is not good enough for her.

I started to read this book while in transit, and it surely kept me entertained and held my interest through the whole story.
The book is number three in a series, my bad, I hadn't read the previous books, this is perfectly fine as a stand alone, but there's a reference made to the previous stories, and I think a reader would benefit from reading them first. And not only that, but I liked the author's voice, the way the story is told, the characters, and the plot, so I would think the previous st ...more

I really enjoyed this book by Mackenzie Crowne. There hasn't been a book in this series that I haven't enjoyed yet. The story of Max & Jessi is wonderfully written with just the right amount of angst that gets you wondering will they or won't they. Country singer Jessi has a stalker & she's tired of being under her fathers security, she wants to stand on her own & thus comes up with a plan to get what she wants for herself......freedom & Max. Max can handle anything thrown at him except....Jessi

In this story we get to see how the characters of the first two books in this series are doing. However, this book works well as a stand alone without having read the other two. This story is well written with strong, likable characters plus a little mystery and some surprises. I highly recommend this sweet, touching story.

The story of Max and Jessi was everything good! I liked that the heroine was willing to go after what she wanted and that the hero, Max, eventually opened up to receive love. I liked the theme s of this book which included love, familial relationships, forgiveness to one's self and receiving good things and not blocking or sabotaging the good things that are in front of you. There are lots of cute parts in this book!

The third installment of the Players series is an enjoyable, easy read that has a lot going on around the edges, but is really just about these two. Jessi is determined and successful, but beginning to feel trapped by her fame and family, while Max is stubborn, also determined and convinced that no matter how successful he is in life, he will never be good enough for Jessi. There are no surprises in this book – not even the stalker – but that suited me perfectly. Sit back, settle in and enjoy th

This is the third book into the series and you may want to read the other books in the series before this one, just because of the characters.
