ABOUT THE BOOK:
Corie
Knox Beckett is heartbreak in a helmet. He’s also my brother’s best friend, and so far out of my league, he’s untouchable.
But a few stolen glances turn into a welcome home that blindsides us both.
The rules are clear. We just chose not to follow them.
Now we’re sneaking around like we’re running a trick play, hooking up behind closed doors, and pretending our actions don’t have the power to blow up our lives.
Knox is under my skin and tackling his way into my heart. Ready or not, it’s time we make the play.
Knox
She’s the last girl I’m allowed to want—my best friend’s little sister. She’s all grown up and looking at me in invitation.
The second Corie crashes into me, with her tanned, toned skin, in a barely there bikini, I know I’m in trouble.
I shouldn’t look. And I sure as hell shouldn’t touch. My hands are already on her waist, one second longer, and I’ll do something we both might regret.
What I do is even worse. I help her land a job working for the team. My team.
Now I can’t get her out of my mind, or my way. And keeping my hands to myself is a penalty waiting to happen. Because Corie isn’t just off-limits—she’s one line I swore I’d never cross, yet I’m sprinting toward it.
I’d risk the season—my entire career—for her just to make the play.

Make the Play by Kaylee Ryan
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Brother’s best friend? Check. Forbidden romance? Double check. Me, absolutely hooked by another Kaylee Ryan book? Triple check.
Knox is hot, loyal, and respects the bro-code – no touching his best friend little sister. But when Corie walks back into his life, all grown up, ignoring her becomes almost impossible. Their chemistry is instant, electric, and totally against everything he believes in. But resisting her can go on for so long until the drawn line are crossed and then there is no turning back.
Corie is no longer the little sister—she’s finally came home and is ready for her life to start. Being around her childhood crush is proving to be a problem, until one night they finally gave into the chemistry. She did give me a headache with wanting to keep them a secret, when he was doing everything to prove his worth to her. I absolutely love the low or almost none drama that Kaylee Ryan gave us in this book and I couldn’t be happier the way new series started. Make the Play* is the perfect kickoff to a series I already know I’ll be obsessed with.
