A BOOK BAR REVIEW: 

Delano “Del” Greer and Rylan Kent bring us another episode of the town of Providence.

Del along with this twin brother and a few other young men have been named Providence’s bad boys. Rylan fits into the puzzle as Del’s sister’s best friend. Rylan is as different and unique as they come for what you may expect.

Finding love for these young men will come as a surprise because they are committed to putting their business and each other first. So, image Delano’s surprise when he finds his match, someone that has always been right in front of him and through social media; another thing he has had no use for. Game Changers’ new marketing strategy has Del chatting with random live viewers…until one catches his attention.

Playing for Keeps offers a surprise love connection and suspense. The author reveals a few layers of the town’s secrets as we piece together the real reason this group is such a threat to everyone.

The author did a great job engaging us in this story. I enjoyed the complex journey of this couple. I feel like we’ve only scratched the surface of the town’s mystery and I hope there will be more to come.
