The Player in New Zealand (Love and Wanderlust Book 4) A Grumpy Boss Romantic Comedy by Liz Alden ➱ Release Tour

 




The Player in New Zealand by Liz Alden is live!



That surly ex-rugby player making a ruckus in the dark corner of the bar I work at? Yeah, I try to avoid him. Too bad he's my boss.

I thought I was grumpy AF but I've met my match. Tane has two moods when I see him  in the bar he co-owns with his sister: grouchy in a dark corner or reliving his rugby days with a rowdy group that likes to cause trouble. I try to avoid him at all costs—the last thing I need is more male drama in my life after my stalker ex. He's why I came to New Zealand—to escape.

When my closest friend in the country—who happens to be Tane's sister—asks me for a huge favor, I can't say no. Now I'm Tane's fake date to a family wedding, and it turns out he is trying to turn his life around.

Adventuring around New Zealand opens my eyes to more than just Lord of the Rings fandom and sheep. I didn't expect to fall in love with the country...or Tane.

The fourth in the Love and Wanderlust series, The Player in New Zealand is two grumps having a meet-hate before a fake date pushes them together.  This standalone contemporary romance is perfect for everyone who wants their wanderlust to continue into the happily-ever-after.

Our Thoughts

Claire is doing her best to do her job when a very large, very intoxicated Tane decides he wants behind the bar
Claire needs this job and she isn't one to back down when she believes she is right even when her chances of survival are not that good
Things go from confrontational to full contact to wo/man down
As far as first impressions go - this one leaves its mark

This is a slow build sort of finding oneself amid life's turmoils romance.
Both our characters are at crossroads in their lives
Claire is waiting out (it will make sense when you read it ) her past and while doing so has been presented with a unique chance at seeing her/the world a bit differently (?)
Tane's glory days have come to a close.
Currently, he is using alcohol as a way to "process and accept" all the changes in his life
Not quite working the way he thought it would
After their first clash (?) Claire and Tane find themselves building a sort of "bond-ship" as they maneuver their way through life's storms - always good to swim with a buddy
That friendship slowly blossoms into more

This was an easy to follow storyline with some hilarious moments, light angst, some great personal growth rounded out with the sweetest self-discoveries and of course romance
Beautiful world-building
Solid characters, both main and supporting, that I easily connected with
I did wish there was a bit more detail and/or background when it came to certain issues and scenes but that is a "me" thing

Meet Liz Alden



I've spent the past five years traveling the world with my husband on our sailboat. I have so many stories to share of grand adventures, beautiful places, and the love that's found along the way.

While I've been happily married for over ten years, the stories from our friends of meeting each other and falling in love have inspired me. I hope to show through my stories that the world is both a large and a small place, and that love can be found everywhere.

We still live the vagabond life on our sailboat.  When I miss terra firma, I read in my hammock, slip into the water for a snorkel, or watch the sunset over a glass of wine.
