Well, this was a story I was definitely looking forward to Reading. I couldn’t wait to find out what was going to happen between Miller and Kinsey and I wasn’t disappointed.

This books is not just about their story though, we get to see a bit of what’s going on with Jax and realize his life hasn’t been as easy as people think. He shares a secret with Kensey that ties them together and this book uncovers that one and a lot more.

Miller is strong and fearless when it comes to football but he has been abandoned by the two most important people in his life, and now he is scared, so he runs. After their first time together he can’t seem to find another way of fixing things than to send her away and break her heart in the process.

Now that she is back and they get stuck into this weird situation there’s no avoiding her.
Kensey is sure of one thing, she can’t resist him, there’s just something about him that calls to her on a deeper level; and things get complicated once he decides he can’t resist her either.

But she is afraid of letting her brother down, and we can’t understand the relationship till they share their darkest secrets.

The book was full of fun moments; these characters are just amazing and hilarious. We also get to see them vulnerable and hurt by life. The whole thing with the kid in the hospital and the dream just brought me to my knees, I cried on my kindle like a little girl.

A really fun and beautiful story.

I very much enjoyed this book.
Very well written. I was hooked from the beginning.

4.5 Stars for book 2 in the Players Game Series and what a great follow up to Fraternize. This is a great series that has the perfect mix of love and humour and lets be honest Rachel Van Dyken certainly knows how to give us stories and characters to fall in love with. A love story with many hurdles to cross, over protective brothers, teammates plus a few secrets from their pasts, will Miller and Kensey be strong enough, will their love be strong enough to get past it all, will true love win in the end, guess you need to read the book to find that out. Once again another book from RVD that captivated me and had me up half the night reading because I wasn’t going to put this baby down without knowing the ending, looking forward to more in The Players Game Series.

I’ve been anxiously waiting for this book. So when I jumped in, something wasn’t right. I’m not sure what it was but something didn’t click with me. Was there emotion? Yep. Sexy time? Yep again. Conflict? Oh yeah.

To be honest, I’m thinking that the behavior of Jax turned me off. Heck, all of them are adults but we’re acting so juvenile. But I wanted to wring Jax’s throat. I know why he behaved like that but it was driving me crazy.

That being said, I enjoyed the last half of the book way more than the first. New beginnings and sad endings. This is where the emotions came in. This is my happy place.

Rachel has once again wrote a phenomenal book. I didn’t want to put it down. At one point I had tears running down my face. Miller is the best and Kinsey is just so innocent. Love them two together. Must read book and series. Now...Bring on Jax.

Wow! Just wow! This book was full of such emotion, laughter, and love. My heart broke for Miller in the first book. Now he found his chance with Kinsey and Rachel didn’t disappoint. There were times in the book where I felt for them and parts where I would burst out laughing! I loved every minute of this book and is my favorite of the series so far. I can’t wanit for Jax! Rachel has a style of writing that keeps you entertained and can’t wait for the next page. Great job!! One clicked!

Miller!!! Oh man, I loved Infraction! Miller and Kinsey everything. Thanks for taking me on that emotional ride.

Where do I even start with how phenomenal Infraction is? In Infraction Rachel Van Dyken brings Kinsey and Miller’s tale to light. After a secret night together Miller and Kinsley have spent the summer apart (not by choice). Now that Kinsey is back her brother Jax comes baring some news Kinsey’s ex Anderson is on the team and he wants’ Miller to be her fake boyfriend. Tension is in the air as Miller and Kinsey didn’t part of good terms, pretending to be together is going to be harder then hiding the fact from Jax that they have been hiding their night together. When family secrets arise it’s Miller that Kinsey turns to, will these two be able to see past the blurred lines of real and fake and of friendship and lovers. Wow seriously wow this book is amazing from the story line to the characters. Rachel Van Dyken draws her readers in and keeps them begging for more! The humor, banter and friend ship between the characters is priceless. Infraction is a rollercoaster of emotion, just when I was laughing one minute; Rachel goes and has me sobbing the next. Such a beautiful book; with powerful and lovable characters and a story line that will stay with you for a very long time. A must read for all romance lovers!

This is the second book in the series and is so freaking good! I couldn't put it down and was not expecting it to be so emotional. You get everything in this book humor, sweetness, emotional and sexy. Add the hot football players and Rachel Van Dyken has done it again! I cant recommend this book and series enough. You can't go wrong with anything by this author!!

AFter reading Fraternize I really wanted to read Miller’s story. I wanted him to get a HEA. I couldn’t get into this book at all and it felt like it took me forever to read it. I really liked Miller, he was sweet and charming. I wish he would have found someone other than Kinsey to hook up with. I found her to be immature and she was a total push over. It’s like she had no mind of her own and allowed everyone to make her decisions and walk all over her. Not to mention her over bearing, control freak of a brother Jax. Every scene with him had me wanting to hurl! He was utterly ridiculous hidding their dad’s illness and then telling her to get over it! I think Ms Van Dyken’s writting style is just not my cup of tea.

This is the second book in the series and it does not disappoint. We get so many emotions in just this one book. We get happy, sad, sexy and of course hot football players. This book has an amazing story line and so much more.

Infraction in the second book in the Players Game series, and if you even loved Miller a little bit in the first book you will be absolutely crazy about him in this book. Lucky for me, Miller was my favorite in the last book, so knowing this was his story and chance at a happy ending I was anxious to read it.

Miller is supposed to be keeping an eye on Kinsey for his teammate. What nobody expects is the friendship and feelings that develops between the two. Miller and Kinsey have a connection that will have you swooning, laughing, and maybe even crying. I loved every second of the story between Kinsey and Miller. The fact that Kinsey's overprotective brother Jax is Miller's teammate makes the story just that much more fun.

I can't wait to see what we get next, hopefully Jax will get his own story too.

3.75 stars--INFRACTION is the second instalment in Rachel Van Dyken’s contemporary, adult PLAYERS GAME sports, romance series focusing on the men and women of the professional football team and their cheerleaders The Bellevue Bucks. This is the Bucks tight-end Miller Quinton, and head cheerleader Kinsey Romonov’s story line. Miller and Kinsey were first introduced in book one FRATERNIZE wherein Miller was part of a love triangle (of sorts) featuring his life long best friend Emerson Rodner, and fellow player Grant Sanchez. INFRACTION can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story line is revealed where necessary.

Told from three first person points of view (Kinsey, Miller, Jax Romonov) INFRACTION follows the friends to lovers, fake romance trope between Bellevue Bucks head cheerleader Kinsey Romonov, and tight end Miller Quinton. Months earlier, following a weekend in Vegas with Miller Quinton, Kinsey found herself forcibly sent to Europe to escape the return of her abusive ex –boyfriend Anderson. Seven months later, Kinsey’s return to America is met with some devastating news that will all but destroy her immediate family. Not only does her father have cancer but her abusive ex-boyfriend is now a member of the Bellevue Bucks. Enter Miller Quinton, Kinsey’s friend, and her brother Jax’s teammate, and the man with whom Kinsey will fall in love. To avoid further conflict with Kinsey’s ex, her brother and ‘America’s quarterback’ Jax Romonov offers up a plan to protect the sister he has always loved-a fake dating scenario between Miller and Kinsey-a hands off relationship that, unbeknownst to Jax, began months before.

The attraction between Kinsey and Miller is immediate but an attraction that must be both played up and played down in order to keep the demons at bay, and Jax from discovering the truth about their past relationship. The $ex scenes are intimate and seductive without the use of over the top sexually graphic, language and text.

A side relationship is developing between Jax Romonov and Kinsey’s friend, fitness model and yoga instructor Harley. Harley is a fiercely independent and brutally honest woman who has caught the eye of ‘America’s Quarterback’, an over-protective alpha male where it concerns his younger sister. Pulled in too many directions Jax struggles with the emotional fall out of his father’s illness, potential threats to his sister, and the fake relationship that isn’t fake-at all.

INFRACTION is a story of family and friendship; secrets and betrayal; falling in love and letting go of the past. The cancer story line is emotional and heart breaking-a heart break that furthers Jax’s spiral out of control. The premise is emotional and sexy; the romance is passionate and fated; the characters are colorful and charismatic.

5+ stars

If I could give this book 10 stars I would!
Infraction blew me away and I felt apart of the characters lives! They drew me in and wanted me to stay and I so would have!
I laughed, I cried, I loved this book wholeheartedly!
The characters, I can’t really find the words to express my feelings to be quite honest!
Quinton Miller, Kinsey, Jax, Sanchez, Em felt like old friends
This book was a real highlight for me! Beautiful words written that warmed my heart!! I’m really in awe at the words that were written!! Brilliant!!

Having not read the first in this series, I did not feel lost at all only feeling that I need to read book 1 ASAP. I loved these characters! This book had me laughing and crying throughout. Miller is asked by his best friend and teammate Jax to fake date his little sister Kinsey. Jax trusts Miller not to touch his sister never realizing they already had a night together months ago. As Miller protects Kinsey from her ex can he protect their feelings and hearts from getting hurt. This book had great banter that made the sad moments bearable. We learn a lot in this book while enjoying Sanchez, Emerson, Jax and his distraction Harley courtesy of Kinsey. Can't wait for the next read!

I love Rachel van Dyken and I usually devour her books but I skipped „Fraternize“ because of the triangle-vibe (I‘ll probably read it anyways someday but I have to be in the mood for such books ;) )
but I knew I wanted to read „Infraction“ immediately after reading the blurb.

Miller and Kinsey‘s story is sweet and tender and so enjoyable.
Typical Rachel book with loveable characters, funny banter and lots of swooning ♡

„Waffle, it‘s wrong to lie to your Chicken, you know that, right?“

And I loved the family dynamic, so heartwarming.
„He watches you, every movement. His hands aren‘t even at his side. He always seems like he‘s bracing for impact. I just don‘t know if he‘s waiting to run in the opposite direction, or into your arms.“

This is the second game in the Players Game series. This book could easily be read on a stand alone basis, however, I would personally recommend reading Fraternize first to aid the reading enjoyment of this book.

This was another great read from RVD and I really enjoyed this one. The story grabbed me right from the start and it held me captive until the end. It was full of romance, there was an air of mystery running through it, full of humour and as always there was that one moment that just packed such an emotional punch and can I say that I love that RVD is getting a little sexier with her books without it being too much.

Infraction was a really enjoyable read with a fab story and wonderful characters. 4.5 stars from me and a definite recommendation

Yay it is time for Miller's story and it is so good. A hot and tempting romance story about pretending to be someones boyfriend,even if that hot person is a sports star and a friend of your brothers. That ladies and gents only leads to serious sexual tension and emotions running high. But will either character survive the pit falls of pretending to be in a relationship if the emotions start to become more than pretend? You so need to read this book, and series, Miller is my fave so far from this series.

This is the second book from the Players Game series and follows Miller and Kinsey (with older, protective, Big Brother Jax thrown in). Jax asks fellow teammate Miller to "fake date" his little sister and team cheerleader to help ward off other men. Unknowingly to Jax, Miller and Kinsey "hooked up" months before. This is the classic friend and little sister story, however the way Rachel writes the book it will have you laughing as well as crying. You get multiple points-of-view from the characters to help you fully become involved in the story. I very much recommend this book.

Infraction by Rachel Van Dyken was one sweet, sexy and beautiful romance done right. Van Dyken truly captured the connection between Miller and Kinsey. Their chemistry was tangible and palpable but Miller is very well aware that they must keep their relationship a secret from Jax, who is Kinsey’s older brother. And so when Miller and Kinsey have to keep their relationship a secret, what happens when the truth is revealed?

Fun, sexy, heartwarming and had an emotional pull to keep readers entertained and drawn to RVD’s writing and characters. Infraction is an example of best-friends little sister romance done right with all the feels to keep you smiling and wanting more.
