About this listen

The genius, the mechanic, and a new playbook...

George

My brother’s friend is hot. If you’re into flannel-wearing lumbersexual former jocks who eat donuts for dinner and still scribble to-do lists on their palms. I’m not. I’m a serious scientist in my final of grad school. Sure, I have few quirks of my own, and I’m all for having fun, but I don’t have time for Aiden’s brand of crazy.

Aiden

A few quirks? Really? I’ve always had a soft spot for George, but he’s the weirdest dude I know. He wears capes in public, brings a book everywhere he goes, and loves all thing spooky. He’s also the smartest person on the planet, and I need his help if I’m going to make a real attempt at becoming a baseball analyst. I just didn’t count on falling for my best friend’s nerdy brother. This is against the rules, isn’t it?

Rules of Play is an MM bisexual awakening story where opposites attract and shenanigans ensue!

I enjoy Lane Hayes books. Her Starting From series was good, so I leapt on The Script Club series. The premise is cute – a geek and a jock. I really enjoyed the first one, but this one wasn’t just as much fun. I’m trying to put a finger on it because the book was decent. The brother’s best friend trope is a good one. I liked George – lives life on his terms, cape and all. He gets stuck in a tough situation at work and could use a hand from someone with…more experience. Aiden is trying to get out from under his homophobic uncle and the way to do that is through education. But he needs someone to check his numbers – so why not a future NASA scientist?

So you’ve got a decent premise. I guess I just didn’t connect with the characters as I have in the past. Now, other listeners have enjoyed the story, so look beyond just my review and if you’re a Lane Hayes fan or enjoy geek/jock books then you’ll probably enjoy this one. I’ll definitely pick up the next one in the series as I’m thinking this was a one-off that I didn’t connect with.

Alexander Cendese is a good narrator and he did a decent job with this story. Overall it was decent, just not my fave.

Not my fave but still good
