Second Chance Scandal: A Fake Marriage, Enemies to Lovers Romance Kindle Edition

From Wall Street Journal and USA Today Bestselling Author M. Robinson comes a standalone second chance sports romance.

Blackmail isn’t the most romantic way to propose, but with the history between us … I had no choice.

Long story short--I broke her heart and pushed her away. Years later we reconnected, and this time she walked away.

Neither of us knew she was pregnant.

So when we had a second chance to be a real family, I led her to believe our marriage was fake— that one football season by my side was the only way to prevent another scandal for my career.

We were a publicist’s dream. I was a football god and she was a world-famous romance author.

The world would fall in love with our story…

But the truth was…

I was never letting them go.

They were both drawn to each other and grew to be very close friends. That eventually ended up to them dating, and then they broke up while in college right before Jax left to start in the NFL and years later they see each other again. Flash forward a few more years and Jax is in the media in a bad way after news of his trade to Fort Worth breaks. ⁣⁣Jax and Sophie are thrust together again and Sophie wants nothing to do with him. He broke her heart when they were younger and she can’t stand to be around him. But they enter into a fake marriage to help his reputation.. cue up the angst! ⁣⁣“𝐈’𝐦 𝐠𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐦𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐦𝐞 𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐢𝐧.”⁣⁣Jax is a character that I was really looking forward to reading about, and while I still very much enjoyed this book it did fall a little short for me. I had such high expectations because I absolutely LOVED the first two books, and I was looking forward to Jax’s story so much. I’m giving this one 4 stars. I didn’t feel connected to the couple in this book as much as I did the others. Especially Sophie, our heroine. Idk what it was about her. Like I said though, I still really enjoyed this one. If you’re looking for a fake marriage, second chance enemies to lovers with a cute kid thrown in there, I def recommend checking this one out! ⁣⁣“𝐈 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐛𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐨 𝐢𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞, 𝐨𝐫 𝐈 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐛𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐯𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐢𝐧.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love, loved Jax
Reviewed in the United States on February 22, 2022

Jax Colton is the perfect alpha – so darn sexy, with a dirty mouth that even made me blush at times, and dominant, yet with a softer side that will make you swoon. Sophie is his perfect counterpart – innocent, but able to hold her own – she really knows how to push his buttons and bring out the possessive alpha in him. I was caught up in their love story, intrigued to watch it play out as I was taken from present day to the past. To get their second chance, they had to let go of the past and come clean about the secrets that kept them apart. For me, this book did not have the angst that M. Robinson is known for, but that didn’t detract from the book. I love the back and forth with Sophie and Jax, it was in turns downright steamy, funny, and passionate. Jax is currently at the top of my book boyfriend list, he knocked Christian off! For me this was a thoroughly enjoyable, spicy read. A must for any TBR. 4.5⭐️s

5.0 out of 5 stars Two souls reaching out for each other
Reviewed in the United States on February 22, 2022

M. Robinson has been a great surprise for me since I read her first book. And while I loved the other 2 books in the series, this one is my favorite so far.

We already knew from the previous book that Jax is a famous quarterback, the GOAT, and we know he’s had his fair share of women. If there's one thing I love about Monica's heroes is how they can be hugely protective and demanding, but also have redeeming qualities that make you fall for them. Jax was all of that, and everything about him made me go 'awww'.

Sophie is the one who got away. He's broken her heart in the past, and she got even with him. However, the connection they share after all these years is too big for words, and there's a secret she's keeping from him that can change everything.

When a scandal breaks out in Jax's life, Sophie is the only one who can help him. She knows she's risking her career, her lifestyle, and most of all, her heart by being close to him again. But some things just can’t be helped.

This was a page-turner, and a wonderful second-chance story of two souls reaching out for each other. It wasn’t easy, and all the emotions really got to me. The fact that they could get over whatever life threw their way and make their way back to each other regardless, made it special.

Wow! Who knew Jax was a sweetheart for his girl?? He kept all that close to the heart. Love the way story plays out, between past and present. Jax is surprisingly sweet and loving and I am here for it. Sophie was young and dumb, but all or nothing. Loved it! Steamy chemistry and great banter.

5.0 out of 5 stars My 3 year book boyfriend has been dethroned by JAX!
Reviewed in the United States on February 22, 2022
Verified Purchase
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book provided to me. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

WOW! To be forthcoming, I wasn’t sure if I would like this book. The first 15% I was on the fence, and then WHAM, out of nowhere, I was sucked in and reading every chance I could. I stayed up late and neglected my schoolwork and my actual work. It has been a while since I have finished a book, and I wish I could go back in time to experience it all over again.

Jax is a football quarterback who has had his fair share of ladies in and out of the bedroom. However, some have made him a traitor, and he needs fake marriage to change their opinion. Finding the person to fill this role didn’t come the way he thought it would, nor did he think it would come with a child.

Sophie is a best-selling author who writes under a pen name. Having been told to either sign a contract to be fake married to Jax or expose the author she is. Sophie decides she should sign the contract and negotiate particular demands as well.

Jax has the dirtiest bossiest mouth on him. There were times I had to fan myself, and there were times I wanted to smack him across his beautiful face. The writing M Robinson has with these two characters is truly breathtaking. I still want to be best friends with Sophie and, of course, get first dibs on her writing adventures and hear what stories she is plotting for the future.

"If I had learned one important lesson in all of this, it was how much love truly prevailed through anything."

There were so many quotes in this book that spoke to me, and I could only dream of what a guy in real life would say to me. I must admit that Jax has officially topped my list of book boyfriends. Liam has been dethroned. After three years of being number one.

"I think my soul found yours from the second I saw you step out of that car."

I didn’t read the book before this one, and I can attest that this book can be read as a standalone.

Loved this book by M Robinson! It was enjoyable. I felt close to all of the characters, which were written well, so a reader could feel a connection. Each character had a great persona , that held me captive. The storyline would at times flicker back in time , which processed the progression of the storyline. The book was a delightful love story of second chances, even though , I’d say these two were in love the first time around! Wink ! Wink ! Great read M Robinson!

It was very anticlimactic to me. For $5.99 I’m disappointed. I’m already hooked! But I forgot how Ms. M writes her stuff. She’s a brilliant story teller, I can see her very unique style but I wish there was more to the story. So I’m just sad all about it. I may or may not buy her books again. This was my second purchase. Good thing I didn’t buy her new release. I don’t want it to be final, maybe when I got tempted again? But for now, it’s a no for me.

I didn't think I was going to like Jax, but boy did I change my mind. He was the most headstrong character I have read so far, and he could rival Christian in intensity. I really liked that even though he was not sure how to express his feelings he did his best to show them, even going to the extreme and lose everything.
Sophie, I like she did not backed down from Jack's intensity and faced all challenges head on. The fact that she went after what she wanted and believed in made her even more lovable.
I was a very good story and a total page-turner. I highly recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Many scandals!
Reviewed in Brazil on April 10, 2022

I’m on secret kid/baby trope wave, I can’t get enough. I start seeing lots of people talking about this book and then I saw plenty of TikTok’s from the author and I knew I had to read this. Apart from this specific trope, we have also enemies to lovers, obviously second chance and “fake” marriage. Honestly there’s no way you can go wrong reading this book.

I simply devoured Ajax and Sophie story. They met when they were teenagers, he was the famous quarterback at school with a trouble family and she was the maid daughter, who lived in the same property as him and goes to the same school. They couldn’t be more opposite, but they were like moths to a flame. They lived an incredible and possessive love but things suddenly went so south.

Years later they met again and she is ready for revenge. Except, the joke was on her because she got pregnant and the same thing that drove them apart was right in her face again. Many years later (again) Jax, is a famous athlete and needs a fake wife so he could control a scandal. Listening, the motive for this was absurd and even though I know why he was angry that he found out he had a kid, he went completely wrong against Sophie. Seriously, I wanted to kick him in the face.

But I can’t deny their chemistry, I could feel at every page and everything this family just worked in my eyes. They were so cute together and I couldn’t get enough of them. She thought the marriage was fake, but for him she was his forever. Many secrets were revealed and the angst was high, but this book was totally worth of my time. Now, I really want to read the other ones in this “series”.

The deeper story of the playboy that is Jax and what a story it was.
The story of Sophie and Jax is absolutely fantastic, full of mystery and surprise with secrets upon secrets thrown into the mix.
The style of writing in this book I really enjoyed the back and forth from what happened back in the day to present was great. It gave a proper full picture of what exactly went on.
I love this full series. The group dynamics really work, and I totally can't wait to see what happens next with Caleb and Evie.

Fantastic book and series really enjoying this Authors work.

Reviewed in Australia on July 14, 2022

I feel like it's been a hot minute since I read something spicy and my tastebuds are not complaining 😏

Jax Colton is the GOAT of professional football and his publicist and manager are in the middle of a PR nightmare. The only thing that can help Jax's image right now? Well, a fake marriage of course and they know just the perfect woman for the job. Sophie.

This book has:
➡️ enemies to lovers... kinda 😉
➡️ second chance love
➡️ sports romance
➡️ dual POV
➡️ fake marriage
➡️ miscommunication
➡️ breeding kink
➡️ a book in a series but can be read as a standalone

My favourite things about this book:
✅️ Usually I'd make a whole list, but I'm going to be completely honest, my absolute favourite part of this book was Jax and his dirty mouth. Hands down 🙈
The things he would say to Sophie would literally have me saying OMG at the exact same time Sophie did. He would say some super hot/filthy things at the most inappropriate times. Sometimes it caught me off guard 🤣🤣
I will say though, Jax always put his money where his mouth is 😏

Answer: If he's Jax Colton, he had a reason. He's an 11.

So full of angst, from teen angst to second chance you’re not going to burn me again angst. Loved Sophie and Jax do I agree with the reasons that kept them apart or how they handled certain situations? No but then we wouldn’t have the angst that we crave so much. A great quick read ends in an HEA.
