Margot and Dex are hilarious! Combined with Wyatt's running commentary and interventions and I was sold.

Margot is most definitely the adult in this relationship. A single mom trying to get back on the dating scene and she's already sick of it. She's funny, honest and gorgeous without even seeing it. She's a relatable character for sure.

Dex is a man child. Good intentions and sometimes terrible executions. He was easily played and pushed but never had malice intentions which is what made him all the more frustrating. He was sweet and when he used his brain... thoughtful. But lord did he push it.

I loved them together. They shouldn't of worked because honestly they were in different places in life with very different looks on the near futures but somehow his youthful fun and her more serious take no bull attitude blended perfectly. She held him accountable and he made her loosen up a little. The banter was perfection, the old married couple bickering hilarious. The growth between them was cute and adding in Wyatt just made the story even better. Wyatt and Dex were like partners in crime.

It's a cute story with a little bit of the feels, alot of laughter and a little frustration.
Once again I thoroughly enjoyed!.

I am loving this series! And a single mom & sports romance yes please. I adored Margot & Dex and going on their journey. The banter was everything!

I voluntarily reviewed this book.

Biggest Player is book two in the Not Yours series. This is a single mom, sports romance. The main characters are Dex Lansing and Margot Mahoney.

Dex is a star football player looking to find a girlfriend but also doesn't want to really commit. He had a long list of what he wasn't looking for in a woman, one big one being a woman with kids. He gave me dumb jock vibes.

Margot is a young mother having gotten pregnant early on in college. She was stable and independent but never really had a long term, serious relationship. Not even with her baby daddy. Odd, yet some what understandable due to being a young single mother, putting herself through school, and starting a career.

This book had potential but it fell flat for me. Dex was Ney's typical douchey male character but I never found him redeemable. He was also too immature and honestly a jerk.

Margot caved waaaaay to easy during the groveling period. Their love didn't seem organic and was rushed. I didn't feel the chemristry at all. Plus they made the age gap sound dramatic when it was only like 4 years. The whole show down with Margot's baby daddy was anticlimactic and then felt unfinished. Another unfinished topic was the agent drama.

The story was entertaining enough to read and had humor. I just wasn't in love with this couple. It needed a lot more depth to the plot and character development.

This was a fun, sexy story!

Margot is on a dating app and gets matched with Dex - only she thinks he's catfishing her and threatens to report him. Their banter in the messages is hilarious and so much fun. Then they meet and it turns out, he's the real deal and everything changes. The meeting between Margot's daughter, Wyatt, and Dex is funny and they have a good connection, too. It takes a weird twist in the middle when Dex is using them for his benefit but over all it was a fun story. I'd like to continue reading the series as I missed the first book.

Thank you to NetGalley, the author and publisher for a temporary, digital ARC in return for my review.

I love pretty much every book by this author and she did not disappoint with this one. I loved the characters and their relationship!

Thank you to NetGalley and Montlake for the ARC!

Biggest Player is a fun and spicy romcom. It features a football MMC and a single mom who's tired of dating apps. I thought the romance was sweet but the best part was Dex's relationship with Wyatt. Their connection was adorable. I think when it's a single parent romance it's important the relationship between the partner and kid is good and I think Sara nailed it. Plus for the spicy scenes and fun times

I struggled through this story. I’m not sure in real life Margot and Dex would have made it but I guess that’s why it is fiction.

Amazing spicy football romance, a must to include in your TBR. Loved the chemistry between the characters; this won't be my last read by the author.

Once I picked up this book I couldn’t put it down. I love Dex and Margot so much. From the moment they met it was explosive between them. Their witty banter will pull you right into the story. Margot’s daughter Wyatt is a hoot. The story wouldn’t be he same without her. I hope to see more of these characters in the future. I absolutely loved every minute of this book!

I guess this writing style just wasn't for me. It felt like I was reading a bad Wattpad fanfic, so bad that I thought I was 13 again reading just everything I could find on there.

The storyline felt a little rushed, it didn't feel super realistic for me. Dex was still a little kid at the end of the story, I didn't get the feeling that he grew at all throughout the book. He changed his mind a little too fast on big things, like having children and such.

Margot forgives way too fast, a wouldn't be able to do that when having a kid. If you forgive your boyfriend so fast and let him be around your child that fast, I would doubt his intentions the whole time.

Ooof what a disappointment! After the disaster of a time I had reading the first book in this series, Not Your Biggest Fan, I was hesitant about giving this book a chance. But free ARCs you know?

While I did enjoy Biggest Player more than Not Your Biggest Fan, it wasn't by much. Dex is a NFL superstar who is immature and not so bright. Margot is a lonely single mom and elementary teacher not having much luck on the dating apps. They meet after already having a terrible exchange over the app and after Dex enlists Margot's daughter into helping him escape his own nightmare of a date.

Look I know Sara Ney books are not here for a lengthy in depth look at emotional trauma. They are here for a good light hearted, sweet and sexy time. But I swear these two characters were some of the shallowest and most immature characters I've ever read. Dex is unreal in his naivety and how he lets his agent control his life without question. The obnoxious things he says and does seem to be the actions of a teenager instead of a 25 year old professional athlete. Margot is not much better, you would think as a mother of a child and as a school teacher who deals with children every day she would not be down for dating a man child but she's so infatuated with how big he is (she mentions his size AT LEAST a billion times throughout this book) and how smokin hot he is, she isn't phased much by what he does to her and how he lies to her. Really the only saving grace in this book is Margot's daughter, Wyatt. She brought a spot of humor to this book and I loved how cheeky she was. Unfortunately she was not enough to save this book for me.

I have been a long time fan of Sara Ney so this streak she's been on for me is disappointing but I'm sure I'll continue to try her books hoping that they improve. I maybe just won't pressure myself to request ARCs for them so I can read them on my own time. Thank you so much to the publisher, Montlake, for gifting me this eARC.

Another great book by this author she always gives us such fun entertaining stories. I enjoyed Dex and Margot’s story. However lets be honest guys we all know that Wyatt was the star of this show. I absolutely loved their dynamic. It was a fun sweet story for sure and one o would recommend.

Biggest Player by Sara Ney is a single parent sports romance following football star Dex and single mum Margot. Dex and Margot first meet on a dating app and Margot thinks he is lying about what he does because why would a football player match with her. They then do some sparing and then she unmatched with him. They then come face to face when her daughter Wyatt offers to help Dex get out of a bad date and Margot finds them in their rouse then Dex rematches with Margot after and wants a shot at being with her now that he has met her as well.
I have enjoyed everything I have head from Sara Ney so far

This is the second book in the Not Yours series. This is a very funny book. Dex is a football star on his friend’s app looking for a friend with benefits. He admits in his profile that he is a professional football player. Dex matches with Margot a single mother of one very precocious ten year old. However, Margot believes that Dex lied about being a football player so through text message she slams him and the bickering and bantering between these two is so funny and entertaining. Needless to say they meet again under unusual circumstances and after talking they agree to be friends. So Dex and Margot embark on a friendship because Dex doesn’t like or want children. But, his agent and press secretary think that dating a single mom will improve his image. Dex is really the most clueless male character I think I have ever read. He’s a little idiotic and slow. He’s doesn’t understand that dating Margot to improve his image is wrong. Margot was an incredibly strong, opinionated educated woman. I loved her nonsense attitude and her upfront manner. This is a funny story of a woman searching for her person and a man who doesn’t really know what he wants, but he finds it and is very satisfied. I think I might go back and read the first book.

This is such a fun sports romance, I love a nice fun quick read. Single mom romance is not something I usually read, not sure why, I think Single Dad's just seem to be more in currently, but this was such a nice twist for me and I really enjoyed it. Margot is so relatable and I just enjoyed her so much. Dex is a hot sportsman and obviously a nice guy. This book was cute and an easy read.

🏈Book Review🏈

3⭐3🌶️

I really wanted to believe this story. It was gorgeous and thoughtful, but the thought of the FMC actually being in a long-term relationship with the MMC is cringe worthy. There is no way this FMC would have a long-term relationship with a guy that has the emotional growth of a child. It would be like being a single parent to two children instead of one. Completely unbelievable.
However, if you are happy to suspend reality for a while, this is a fun read that I still enjoyed, mostly because of the one-liners. Finally, while this is marked as a sports romance, there is no sports in this book at all. Yes, he's a sports star but there is zero Sports, not even preseason.

Big thanks to NetGalley and Sara Ney for a copy of this book. This is my honest opinion.

I read book 1 and even though I thought it was okay, I still was interested in reading this book, Biggest Player. However, just like book 1 I was not really a big fan of this story. I was not intrigued by the two main characters and their romance. They didn't seem like a good fit. I did like how Dex met Margot's daughter Wyatt-that was pretty amusing. As I progressed through the book I just wasn't feeling it. It was just a meh read. While this story did not work for me it could work for someone else.

Margot is a single mom and a teacher. Dax is a football player. The two interact on a dating app where Margot thinks she's being catfished by Dax. The texts between them are hilarious. Margot has a teen daughter. She's looking for a stable relationship after plenty of dating disasters. Dax is looking for a serious relationship. They end up in a kiss that leads to them dating. A fun, flirty read

I received a copy of this book via Netgalley.

Thank you so much to Montlake & NetGalley for this e-arc.


Everything went so smoothly and easily between Dex and Margot. In this lovely story, what begins as a friendship quickly evolves into something more. Dex and Margot were well-written characters who initially struggled with their connection. Their story was well-paced and kept me intrigued throughout. I liked how there wasn't an instant connection and that both characters were believable. This is a lovely and funny romantic comedy! I adored the entire story.

As always I love sports romance by Sara Ney. It’s funny and I loved the characters. It has banter and flows so well. It’s fun from start to finish.
