Publisher's summary

Charlie Davenport is the bad boy of British tennis - and third in line to the throne. He's a beast on the courts and a wild animal in bed (according to all the tabloids). Girls are lining up for chance at his crown jewels, and when I stumble into the wrong Wimbledon dressing room and catch a glimpse of his game, set, and match, I can see why.

So what's a little good luck kiss between friends (I mean, strangers)? I know better than to get involved with a bad boy like Charlie. But now he's on a winning streak, he thinks I'm his lucky charm - and you know what's luckier than a kiss? Everything.

Suddenly, I've got paparazzi on my trail, exes coming out of the woodwork - and you don't know "cutthroat" until you've seen a pack of hungry socialites set loose near the Royal Family. I'm in way over my head, and even worse - I'm falling in love. Can this American girl win her Prince Charming? Or will we both crash out of the championships in flames?

Contains mature themes.

This was my first book/audiobook by Katie McCoy and it was a fun meet cute story. Although Charlie and Emmy has some hurdles to overcome to obtain their HEA, I liked the fact that they were both honest and steadfast in their feelings and opinions. Cornell Collins was a new narrator to me and he did an excellent job. Melissa Moran was phenomenal as always. This was a very enjoyable listen!

Review: All-Stars 1: Royal Player

Royal Player by Katie McCoy is the first book in her stand-alone contemporary romance series, All-Stars . Told in dual POV between Charlie (the spare prince/Wimbledon tennis ace) and Emmy (the aspiring fashion designer/Wimbledon tea girl) this story is quirky, romantic, and fills the niche of pauper to princess love stories that we all secretly (or not-so-secretly) have wanted to happen at least once in our lives. I find I can really get into the light-hearted romance and writing style of this author and I thoroughly enjoyed this story. With just enough angst to keep it from being all fluff and no substance this was a fab book set in London and centering on Wimbledon. Enjoy!

hmm okay

the story was enjoyable but the male narrator was clearly not a young actor, he sounded like a pensioner which I found off putting. its not his fault he sounds like a fantastic narrator just not for this role.

Wow

Loved this story of a her getting lost in tunnels at Wimbledon and taking tea to the wrong room where a player asked for a good luck kiss that grew to more. She got her Prince Charming. Though a scandal nearly pulled them apart. Lucky for this prince a thunderstorm brought him to his senses in a few ways. Story was awesome.
Narration was awesome too.

just ok

I usually get sucked into a story, but struggled to get into this book. I guess in part because I have listened to so many books, it takes something special to hold my attention.
I appreciate the narrator's skills but did not think they were suited to the characters.
if you are looking for a romantic story, is books meets the criteria, however it is not the best I have ever listened to.
