New Release Rafferty (Pittsburgh Titans, Book #15) Sawyer Bennett
Synopsis:
Rafferty Abrams has been having the time of his life since joining the Pittsburgh Titans, but a poorly thought out one-night stand is about to cause unwanted drama with potentially serious repercussions.
As a member of the Pittsburgh Titans, I’m afforded a certain level of leniency in my behavior. The perks of being a celebrity, I suppose. But a run-in with my “one-night stand turned borderline stalker” has me crossing all sorts of lines with a beautiful but unsuspecting grocery store employee. When I surprise the complete stranger with a giant kiss and quiet plea to help a guy out, she not only plays along but gets my blood racing like I’ve never experienced before. Score one for Rafferty Abrams.
Temperence Martin isn’t just the stunning girl in the international foods aisle. Tempe is also a devoted daughter taking a break from college to help her mother as she heals from a serious accident. That includes making sure her younger brother stays on track with school and keeping everything running at home. To say she’s burning the candle at both ends is an understatement, but that doesn’t mean I didn’t see the spark in her eyes after our spontaneous make out session. That’s exactly what has me coming back for more, even if I use that pesky stalker as my excuse.
As we get to know one another, I realize a fake relationship just isn’t going to work. I want something other than a ruse, something real, and lucky for me, so does Tempe. But when my mistake of a hookup starts telling lies in retaliation for my alleged betrayal, things get messy. For me and for Tempe, who has found herself embroiled in a love triangle that doesn’t even exist. I can only hope Tempe isn’t scared away by the baggage I unintentionally brought to our relationship because the truth is, I saw my happily ever after with her the first time our lips met.

Review Copy Provided by Author
Rafferty brings us back to the world of the Pittsburgh Titans in their 2nd year post tragedy. This is a tight knit group that has opened their arms to the newer team members and continues to impress with the family like atmosphere.
Raff is one of those newer players and he finds himself in a tight spot when he stumbles on the perfect girl for him (all while escaping the WRONG one). Tempe is a college student home to care for her mother as she recovers from a horrible accident.
While Raff and Tempe have one of the more unique meet cutes in the series, I truly enjoyed them together. They had a fantastic dynamic from the get go and seemed to gel with each other. It made me root for them and wonder just what direction their conflict would come from. I appreciated that the conflict was external and gave them the opportunity to see how each responded under pressure vs pitting them against each other.
As book 15 in the series, it’s safe to say the secondary cast could get out of control. Ms Bennet handled that well by focusing on the players that interact with Raff the most (as well as key team staff). There are some favorites that we get to visit as well as getting to know future main characters a bit better. We also get to meet Rafferty’s sister when she appears in Pittsburgh unexpectedly. Something tells me she will be a feature player in the near future and I can’t wait!
