About This Book
Lover meets player—by the bestselling author of the Miles High Club series. It started with a list. Tired of meeting nightmares, I decided to study the dos and don’ts of dating.
And who better to help me with my master list than the king of red flags himself? Blake Grayson—neighbor, friend, mischief maker, and player extraordinaire. He knows how to spot a playboy from a mile away.
He is the prime example, after all. So when he offers to help me avoid Mr. Wrong by sharing what to look for, I have no choice but to take him up on it.
We start a game. He will become my wingman, and I’ll become his. He coaches me through my singledom, while I go on his journey of play.
We double-date, eat ice cream at midnight, and laugh. Boy, do we laugh… But while I watch every woman he meets fall madly in love with him, I stumble across a major problem: I know exactly why they fall. Because I can feel it too.
His charm is intoxicating, and damn it, the man is addictive as drugs. But it’s not happening. I won’t let it.
I’m not that gullible young girl anymore. Blake will never settle down, and I know in my heart he’s not the man for me. I have one go at this second chance of happiness, and I am not going to mess it up.
This time, I play by my rules. Even if he won’t.

Another great Swan book
Rebecca and Blake are people you might actually know. I think that makes the story even more relatable. I love the billionaire stories, but occasionally it is great to read about people you might come in contact with.😊 I really liked these characters and was rooting for them. No spoilers, but there was one little “ick” ( you’ll know) and a side story that distracted me a bit. But Rebecca and Blake’s story is perfect!
Kingston Lane wins again!!!
Blake and Rebecca - the story we were waiting for!! All the good stuff here - friends, love, tears, the boys learning about Kindle with kinks and tropes - how hysterical!!! I highly recommend this book but please read MY TEMPTATION first to get the full enjoyment in this book. As an author, TL Swan totally wins all the prizes!!
My favorite romance writer did it again!
What can I say about this book… I read it in one day. It captivated me and I couldn’t put it down. I loved the story because it’s so relatable honestly. The banter in this book was awesome! I truly enjoy her writing and look forward to whatever else she put out next year. She writes like no one else! My absolute favorite.
Slow burn but worth the wait
This book was very difficult in terms of I felt while reading it. My heart broke for Rebecca. That woman had a lot of trauma to deal with. This was definitely an emotional ride. I hate Blakes reaction to the “third act fight”. He was over the freaking top for that. Over great book! I read this in one sitting and the spice is top notch 🔥🥵🌶️🌶️🌶️
Rules of Friendship to Love😍
I couldn't put this book down, there was so much Love in My Rules, whether it be the main couple or the friendships. Kingston Lane is the place to be!!! So much fun!! I Loved Becs and Blake's love story, from a solid friendship to relationship.. even though it took a lot to get there, so many bumps in the road, so much growth... they finally got there. It was so well written that Tee puts you in the story, you feel everything😍 she is a treasure that needs to be protected at all costs to keep on giving us her stories❤
❤️🔥🎤That’s my type, that’s my type!🎯
I can’t get enough of TL Swan and Kingston Lane. Legit, it’s one after another hit. This book is my JAM and here’s why: Friends to HOT LOVERS?! Yes, yes, yes… that’s my jam. Throw in the fact that our heroine was wronged by her ex and our hero is incredibly sexy AND sweet… goner! This story was the tiniest of slow burns… and cue the music… yep, my trope 100%. This was such a fun read, I think I smiled the entire time, even through the painful bits because we needed them. The humor and wit of our characters created a lovely dynamic that leads me to believe I need to live on my own Kingston Lane!!!
Decent read
Lovable characters, tough story. Okay I usually LOVE everything that Swan writes; i have been reading her for years! This book was a bit different for me, maybe because it wasn’t an easy love story I’m used to reading. Spoilers******** I could not under why Rebecca could be head over heels in love with Blake (when she finally realized her attraction to him) but then clammed up when he wanted to take the next step. It seemed to come out of nowhere for me, I loved Blake’s reaction to her and wanted to high five him for protecting himself and for how he acted in NYC! Loved it! Rebecca totally deserved it in my opinion. Blake was so funny and charming; for me he made this book. I enjoyed the relationship between the men and the pee in your pants conversations about aliens and breastfeeding!! I wanted Rebecca to have more common sense and to wake up to see what was right in front of her the whole time. Ultimately worth the read, Blake is truly amazing ❤️
