Waiting on Wednesday: The Summer Games: Settling the Score

This meme is hosted by Breaking the Spine :)

The Summer Games: Settling the Score by R.S. Grey
Publication Date: May 2nd, 2016
Link to Goodreads

As an Olympic rookie, Andie Foster has spent far more time in her cleats than between the sheets. For 21 years, her Friday nights have consisted of blocking shots rather than taking them. But now that she's landed in Rio, she's ready to see for herself if the rumors about the Olympic Village are true:

• The athletes are all sex-crazed maniacs...
• The committee passes out condoms like candy...
• The games continue long after the medals have been handed out...

As Andie walks the line between rumor and reality, she's forced into the path of Frederick Archibald, a decorated Olympic swimmer and owner of a sexy British accent—too bad he's unavailable in a way that "it's complicated" doesn't even begin to explain.

In other words: off limits.

It doesn't matter that he has abs that could bring peace to the Middle East and a smile that makes even the Queen blush; Andie fully intends on keeping her focus on the soccer field. But the Village is small. Suffocating. Everywhere Andie goes, Freddie happens to be there—shirtless, wet from the pool, and determined to show her a whole new meaning of the phrase "international affairs".


I've become a little obsessed with R.S. Grey; her instagram is one of my top-favorites. It features colorful and vivd photos of gorgeous cups of coffee, stationary, her books, her adorable dogs, and her equally adorable husband. I've only read one of her novels, Chasing Spring, but I absolutely loved it and have been wanting to read her other work ever since. I've never read a sport romance before (and am not really into sports in general), but am definitely wiling to take that chance with R.S. Grey. I've heard her books are hilarious and swoon-worhy, which is my favorite combination. 


Have you read any of R.S. Grey's books? If so, what did you think of it? Link your WoW down in the comments! :)

    1. I bought Scoring Wilder when it was 99 cents, and I think I remember seeing you reading it and thinking "Damn, I need to read her other books!" I'm super excited to read that, because I guess there's characters in there that's in this book? That's just what I heard!
