Book: Game On by Navessa Allen
Reviewed by Anonymous
Rating: 5/5
Overview
Stella is a baddie with a past and tummy issues and I LOVE her! Tyler also has a secret past and while he comes across as a golden retriever he also has a dark side (HOT!). Tyler has dirt on Stella and thinks he can use her and his underground gambling ring to get revenge on his real target but things might not be as simple as he thinks.
What I loved
I loved the dynamics between Stella and Tyler. Their banter and pull towards each was fantastic. I loved that Tyler was a total brat and I loved the exploration of other relationship dynamics with the introduction of AJ.

Final Thoughts
Game On was HOT and I couldn't stop listening! I found Stella to be so relatable and I loved her and Tyler's banter and build up. If you haven't read this yet because you were unsure after Caught Up I highly recommend going ahead and reading or listening now.
