About this eBook
From pro rugby player to...manny?
Australian rugby pro Cole Hauser has had enough of speculations about his future post-injury. So when a football buddy puts his house in America at Cole's disposal, he jumps at the chance for some peace and anonymity. The plan is perfect—until he discovers he's roomies with a woman who knows how to wield a nail gun and her kid. Awesome. Not.
Single mom Jane Spencer is supposed to be spending four weeks alone in the wilds of Colorado rehabbing a house that’ll put her business on the map. Instead, her time is overrun by her four-year-old and a grumpy, too-sexy rugby dude whose only goals are to watch ESPN and brood. Awesome. Not.
When, surprisingly, McHottie offers to get his ass off the couch and help Jane out with Finn, she’s hesitant. But before she knows it, Cole is knee-deep in kid activities during the day and they’re both fighting their simmering attraction at night.
Anything between them can only be temporary - their time together is short and Cole lives on the other side of the planet. It should be easy to say goodbye, right? Wrong. It doesn't take long for them to realize they've borrowed a whole lot of trouble.
But trouble never felt this good.

3.75⭐ Playing with Trouble was a sweet, light and easy-to-read romance between single mum Jane and injured rugby star Cole. Yet, if I'm being honest, I didn't feel there was much of a connection between Jane and Cole, and frankly, I didn't find Jane the most endearing of characters. But I really loved Cole and Finn, Jane's 4-year-old son, was adorable and easily stole almost every scene he was in. And for me, it's those two who made this story worth reading. ** I was kindly provided with an ARC via Entangled Publishing in exchange for an honest review**

4.5 Stars I will read anything Amy Andrews writes, but this book had me at single mom and former rugby player. Oh my gosh little Finn is so adorable. The scenes with Finn and Cole melted my heart and ovaries may have exploded. I wish I could find a Cole for myself. That man is super yummy. I couldn't out this book down. I also enjoyed some cameos from some of my favorite residents of Credence. Jane is super independent and making her mark in a male dominated field. She's pretty inspiring. She has a nun like life, but when Cole enters her life she is sent into a tailspin. Cole and Jane have a ton of chemistry and they just made me happy. The epilogue was just perfect and made my heart happy sigh. I would highly recommend this one.

The Credence series hasn’t really been my jam but I loved the Sydney Smoke series so I was excited for this crossover. Finn absolutely made this book for me. That little boy stole every scene and every moment he showed up in and if it wasn’t for hope unbelievably adorable he was, I probably would have DNF’d this book. It took me so long to get into it and even then, I skimmed a lot.
