Kylie Scott returns with Play, the New York Times bestselling highly-anticipated follow-up to the international hit Lick

Mal Ericson, drummer for the world famous rock band Stage Dive, needs to clean up his image fast-at least for a little while. Having a good girl on his arm should do the job just fine. Mal doesn't plan on this temporary fix becoming permanent, but he didn't count on finding the one right girl.
Anne Rollins never thought she'd ever meet the rock god who plastered her teenage bedroom walls-especially not under these circumstances. Anne has money problems. Big ones. But being paid to play the pretend girlfriend to a wild life-of-the-party drummer couldn't end well. No matter how hot he is. Or could it?

Mal Beats a Rhythm Straight to My Heart!

ByAmberlanae~Addicted Soulson March 25, 2014

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

The boys of Stage Dive are BACK! I have been so excited for this book. After reading Lick….and then meeting Kylie….joining her groupies & seeing all the Play teasers and excerpts that she shared, this book was definitely in my top 5 most anticipated reads of this year! I was NOT DISAPPOINTED!! It turned out better than I could have imagined.
Play is Malcolm ‘Mal’ Erickson’s story and is told from the point of view of Anne, who literally is the girl next door! Through some crazy circumstances Mal moves in with Anne and convinces her to play his pretend Girlfriend until the band goes on tour. Anne agrees….and why not?! Mal is HOT, she has had a crush on him for FOREVER and more importantly…she needs the money. Mal is his totally over the top self, which is a great counterpart for Anne’s stick in the mud ways. Mal & Anne have great chemistry and interactions. They are HILARIOUS! I really loved the texting back and forth, the sly innuendos, Mal talking about the size of his ‘stick’, the bathtub scene…..ok not going to lie….I loved the whole damn book!
Here is the part that surprised me, Mal has a soft side. A vulnerable side, that he is trying to desperately hide from Anne and his band mates. The problem….Anne. She will not let him hide part of himself away. This is when the story gets angsty. Mal is dealing with some serious things….it causes him to be a bit manic and drink too much (which is totally understandable). I love that he uses his drums to center himself. I love that he also learns to lean on Anne, who is an amazingly supportive person. Of course there are mistakes made along the way, conclusions drawn that hurt feelings (what book would be good without these things?) but Anne & Mal start to realize that there may be more between them then just a pretend relationship.
BONUS! There is a lot of David & Evelyn in this book! Not only a lot of sexy time between the two, but some surprising revelations. We also get to see more of Jimmy and his interaction with David and the rest of the band….not to mention Ben who is definitely the strong silent type.
All in all this was a FUN read. Kylie Scott knows how to write a story that keeps moving forward, keeps the reader interested & laughing. Her character development is incredible! As the series progresses you learn more and more about the boys of Stage Dive and that is one journey I am excited to be a part of.

Fall in love with Mal Erickson

ByLexi Stantonon September 14, 2017

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

I've read this book over and over because I just love Mal. He's that charming, crazy clown character with lots of charisma that you just can't resist. In real life he would drive me crazy, but in a book, he's the best. I laughed out loud often, and I'm not an easy lol-er. I wish that it wasn't told solely from Anne's POV because I just didn't understand what was going on in Mal's head most of the time, why he chose to move in with Anne almost instantly, what it was that made him attracted to her, how his initial feelings changed. It seemed sometimes like maybe he just made up that idea that he needed a fake girlfriend in order to have an excuse to help Anne out of her money crunch, but then sometimes it seemed like he wanted her to play girlfriend to give his mother a sense that he was settling down. He didn't seem interested in a physical relationship with her at first-why if he picked her to play his girlfriend out of all the women he knows-and I didn't understand the evolution of their relationship since Anne seemed at sea as well. If it weren't for that, this would be my favorite Stage Dive novel, because Mal is one of the most engaging and charming characters I've ever read (reminds me of Izzy Zanella in Suzanne Brockmann's books). The whole series is fun, but the first two books are the best!

Just okay but part of great quad-series

ByLexion April 25, 2017

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

"Play" is Malcom's story in the second book of the Stage Dive series (a total of 4). He's the smoking hot drummer of world-famous band Stage Dive, and the group's funny guy. The four members of the band grew up together and started a garage band when they were kids. Fast forward a dozen years and they're a mega band like One Direction. "Mal" (because the author annoyingly insists on calling all her characters by one syllable grunts) is suffering from a mid-life crisis in his late 20s and decides that what his buddy Davey has is what he wants. Add to that a dying mother whom he wants to please by showing her that he's settled and introducing a nice girl. Enter Anne, former apartment neighbor of Evelyn (of book 1, who married David). Anne is invited to a party that Ev an Dave are throwing at their grand new pad. Mal sees her and decides she'll do and sets about an ill-advised plan of moving in with her an basically paying her to be a fake girlfriend for his mother's sake. Weird, then, that this fake relationship also has to fool all his friends as they set about trying to make everyone a believer. Problem is, Mal keeps forgetting he has a "girlfriend" and pawing at women.

While I loved Malcolm in the other three books, his anti-serious character doesn't hold up when he takes center stage in his own book. It takes about 200 pages for him to crack his exterior and let the reader (and Anne) in. His manic behavior is exhausting and he's mostly two-dimensional. There's also no good reason given for why he likes Anne. Why is she the one? She's with him because, duh, he's famous and his posters adorned her walls as a teenager. At first this was a turn-off but given Mal's huge ego, only a super-fan would be right for him so I forgave the author this. But Anne doesn't shine through as someone he'd pick out of all the girls he could have. The author gives her no shining qualities. They never really connected for me as a couple.

Definitely read this, though, as it's part of the series and this introduces Lizzie, Anne's little sister who is smitten with the fourth member of the band and has the final book. Just be prepared to hate Mal for a couple of hundred pages.
