The Player and the Pixie

20151019-PandP (3).jpg de Penny Reid et L.H. Cosway (2016)

Présentation des auteurs : How can someone so smokin’ hot be so bad in bed? I mean, Sean Cassidy is absolute rubbish. RUBBISH. He is the epitome of walking, talking false advertising and I want a refund! Plus he’s an arsehole. So… what is wrong with me that I can’t stop thinking about him?

THE PIXIE
Lucy Fitzpatrick doesn’t like rugby.
As the little sister of Ireland’s most infamous rugby player, Lucy can’t seem to escape the championship-sized shadow cast by her big brother, or her mother’s frequent attempts to micromanage her future. Her rainbow hair is as free-spirited as her quest for inner peace, yet overbearing expectations keep bringing her down. And when she’s down, her compulsive little problem lands her in seriously big trouble.

THE PLAYER
Sean Cassidy is a cold-hearted brute… or so he’s been told. Frequently. By everyone.
His blonde locks, baby blues, and rock hard bod make ladies the world over drool with desire. As the rugby world’s second most infamous player, he should be basking in his success. But Sean has never been content settling for second place, and his frequent confrontations with Lucy’s big brother leave him cold. And when he’s cold, his compulsive little problem lands him in the lap of Lucy Fitzpatrick.

THE PLAN
Sean has a problem only Lucy can solve. Lucy has a problem only Sean can fix. The solution seems obvious: you scratch my back, and I’ll bail you out of jail. But when their business arrangement unexpectedly leaves Sean scorching hot and Lucy on the precipice of inner peace, can they convince the world—and Lucy’s big brother in particular—that this is the real deal?

Either way, both the Player and the Pixie are about to teach each other some pretty monumental lessons about family, life, but most importantly, love.

Rhoooooo ce tome 2 est tellement beaucoup plus mieux que le 1 xD

Sean et Lucy sont à l'opposé l'un de l'autre, ils n'ont aucune raison de s'apprécier et quand ils se croisent, c'est à celui qui sera le plus sarcastique. Sauf que, sauf que... et bah Sean trouve que ce petit truc coloré (Lucy a des cheveux arc-en-ciel) a une bonne répartie et Lucy découvre que Sean fait peut-être exprès d'être imbuvable avec tout le monde.

Les circonstances n'aidant pas beaucoup, ces deux-là vont être immédiatement attirés et vont se jeter dessus hihihi... Sauf que, sauf que... (et comme c'est écrit dans le résumé je peux le dire aussi) Sean est absolument nullissime au lit. Lucy se rend compte que non seulement Sean en a pleinement conscience, mais qu'aucune de ses conquêtes d'un soir n'a osé le lui dire. Ce qui avait commencé comme une simple partie de jambes en l'air devient très vite plus profond et sincère. Sean et Lucy s'ouvrent l'un à l'autre sans vraiment l'avoir prévu...

Ce livre se lit tout seul, on enchaîne les chapitres et les points de vue différents entre Lucy et Sean. Les caractères des personnages sont tout en subtilité, ils ont chacun des bons et des mauvais côtés, j'ai bien aimé les voir s'accrocher l'un à l'autre petit à petit ^^.

Lire le tome 1 est pas *forcément* obligatoire pour lire celui-ci, il y a des piqûres de rappel du 1 dans le 2 (pourquoi Sean et Ronan -le frère de Lucy- ne s'entendent pas) mais rien n'est absolument vital pour apprécier celui-ci tout seul.

Rhoooooo book 2 is so much better than the first one xD

Sean and Lucy are opposites, they have no reason to enjoy each other and when they meet it's a game of who will be more sarcastic than the other. Except, except that... Sean finds that colorful little thing (Lucy has rainbow hair) has good comebacks and Lucy discovers that Sean may purposely be unsufferable with everyone .

The circumstances are not helping much and those two are immediately attracted and will jump each other hehehe... Except, except that... (and as it says in the summary I can say it too) Sean is absolutely rubbish in bed. Lucy realizes that not only Sean is fully aware of it, but none of his ^revious conquests dared tell him about it. What began as a simple "no strings attached" quickly becomes a deep and sincere connection. Sean and Lucy open to one another without really having it planned...

We an read this book in one go, the chapters come one after another with different points of view between Lucy and Sean. The characters are very subtle, they each have good and bad sides, I enjoyed seeing them hang to each other gradually ^^.

Reading book 1 is not *necessarily* required to read book 2, there are bites of it in book 2 (why Sean and Ronan -Lucy's brother- disagree) but nothing is absolutely vital to enjoy it alone.
