Cory Potter. The Boss. The one man whose story I have been waiting for. He does not disappoint.

Cory has been traded midseason to a team that doesn’t welcome him, fans who can’t help but boo him and a team he grew up disliking his entire life, the Rebels. The benefit is he is back home, close to his family, especially his baby sister Milly, however, with that comes his new brother in law and their group of friends, including his new teammate Jason. Natalie, who just so happens to be Jason’s sister, is in charged of a charity organization. When Cory first spots Natalie at an event he is drawn to her, however, there is one problem. She is married. Flash forward some months, Natalie is newly divorced, Cory still wants her and they are on vacation together with their friends and family.

I loved Cory and Natalie’s story. There was so much chemistry between the two of them and the tension between them will have you wanting more. They had such an easily flow about them and their banter had me laughing so many times. They both want each other, but neither of them is willing to give in. It was a little frustrating at times and I was yelling at my kindle for them to just give in, but it was worth the wait.

Of course, when they entire crew was together, I was dying of laughter, especially when it came to anything involving Jason. Their family and friends were supportive and pushed them together so many times.

The Trade is heartwarming, hilarious, a frustrating slow burn that is worth the wait and everything I love about Meghan Quinn’s books! A MUST READ!
