REVIEW ➞ Not My Match by Ilsa Madden-Mills

BLURB ➞

Wall Street Journal bestselling author Ilsa Madden-Mills delivers a smart and sexy romance about a professional football hottie and the girl he’s sworn to never touch.

Homeless and heartbreakingly innocent, Giselle Riley walks into my penthouse and chaos follows.

I shouldn’t have invited the girl genius to live with me, but it’s clear she needs my help—not only for a place to lay her pretty blonde head but in finding real love, which she’s not going to get with the crazy men she picks up online.

Too bad she’s a twenty-four-year-old virgin and I’m a bad boy wide receiver. She’s off limits for a hardcore player like me—and we’re just friends.

Instead, I’m her matchmaking service, no matter how jealous it makes me when I tag along on her dates.

I can keep my self-control. Right? No way will I give in to everything inside me that dreams of a girl like her in my world.

I may be the best wide receiver in the country, but how could I hold on to a girl like her?


“Devon Walsh, squashing stereotypes one quote at a time.”


ARC REVIEW ➞

I knew I would love Devon from the moment he was introduced in Not My Romeo, Giselle on the other hand took some getting used to but she also won me over from the very beginning.

Giselle is insanely smart; she is kind of quirky and I honestly loved her. She hasn’t had the best of luck when it comes to her life lately. Devon is an insanely talented football player and all his cockiness goes to show he knows how good he is. Devon is also extremely protective, especially of Giselle.

Giselle and Devon have loads of chemistry. I loved their friendship and I loved seeing the tension build between them. They are complete opposites and both of them have their own struggles to get through. I loved seeing a different side to Devon, too. He may seem like he has everything in life to most of the public, but really he doesn’t and he struggles with the pain of his past.  Devon and Giselle both need each other and it wasn’t always an easy road.

Not My Match had me laughing, swoony, falling in love and crying from the very beginning.

If you’re looking for a friends to lovers, sports romance, quirky/nerdy heroine romance this one is a MUST READ! It can also be read as a standalone.
