Two books together: Rules of the Game - Director of commercials falls in love with ballplayer who is the star of one of them; The Name of the Game: TV Producer of game shows falls in love with one of the game show celebrity actors ( )

Good not great. Fairly typical contemporary romance. ( )

Contains two Nora Roberts novels originally published in the 1980s. Rules of the Game features Brooke Gordon who directs advertising and wants to get into bigger things. Her latest project involves Parks Jones, a baseball hero with a big ego. She's determined not to get involved, he's determined to explore his attraction to her. This is a sweet story, she's got issues and he just deals with them in very great ways. He notices things about her and tries to make her comfortable and when she falters he's there to pick her up. A charming story.

The Name of the Game is about Johanna Patterson who has grown up with show biz and distrusts almost everyone in the game. When Sam Weaver appears on her game show he decides that she would be an interesting person to date, he overcomes her reluctance slowly and with a lot of charm. Another solid romance with some great characters. ( )

THIS WAS A VERY INTERESTING BOOK. IT IS FUNNY ABOUT A LOT OF NORA ROBERTS BOOKS. SHE SEEMS TO MAKE HER MALE CHARACTERS PICK ON THE FEMALE CHARACTER LIKE MEN DO IN REAL LIFE. IT'S SORT OF A CUTE FLIRTY THING GUYS DO TO GO AFTER GIRLS, AND AGAIN SHE ALWAYS MAKES HAPPY ENDINGS.......I WONDER IF SHE WILL EVER HAVE AN UN-HAPILLY EVER AFTER......IT WOULD SUCK :( OH WELL LOL ( )
