Synopsis:
Addison has had her future mapped out since she was a little girl – pre-law degree from the University of Nebraska, getting into a top notch law school, followed by a career as a no-nonsense lawyer. She knows that a husband will come at some point, but she hasn’t figured that part out yet. One thing is certain, it’s not Bryce Portwood, the annoying class clown in her English class.
Bryce has never taken anything too serious. Life’s too short to get all worked up and never have fun. The moment Addison Webster opened her mouth, he knew she needed to let her hair down, and he wanted to be the one to help her. Getting Addison to hang out was easy. Getting her to lighten up and trust him, not so much.
Bryce has a plan. If he can get her to let go and have fun, maybe she’ll see he’s not so bad. If Bryce can just play it cool, maybe he can prove to her that he can fit into those well-laid plans after all.

Review:
A passionate and entertaining romance!
Playing It Cool is the first book in the Portwood Brothers series. This story tells the background history of Bryce and Addison. Addison is a strong woman that does not want to fall into the mistakes of her parents. She is determined to be independent and not let a man tell her what she can and can not do. Bryce realized one day that a real relationship is what he really wants; not a fling. Bryce has to figure out a way to break down Addison’s defenses and get her to realize that she too wants the comfort, love and companionship that a relationship has to offer.
Playing It Cool is a well-written story; perfect to start the Portwood series. The author did a great job of adding plenty of action and passion to keep my interest throughout the whole book. The characters are well developed and engaging. Emily Robertson does a fantastic job of intertwining the different characters throughout each book of the series. It doesn’t matter what order you read the books, you will not feel that you are missing anything. This is one of my favorite series as the writing is top-notch and the storyline is entertaining and full of passion.
This is one of several books that I have read by Emily Robertson and will certainly not be my last. I was not disappointed at all. I recommend Playing It Cool, or the series as a whole, to anyone that enjoys reading romance that will keep you entertained and pull at your heartstrings repeatedly.
