Simply Complicated Kindle Edition
But there are rules.
He needs to be a stranger and someone who won't judge me if I can't cross the finish line.
Luke Sorenson, one of the most famous soccer players in the world, isn't meant to be that man. He's the guy I grew up next door to. The man who broke my heart ten years ago, then moved across the country and never looked back.
He also happens to be the one person in the world I can't stand.
But as my best friend points out, he's the best option.
Besides, it's only for one night. What can possibly go wrong?
***
The last person I expect to see when I walk into a random corner bar is Olivia Brighton, the one woman I let slip through my fingers when I chased my dream a decade ago.
Not only do I run into her again, but I offer to help her out with her dilemma, and she accepts.
It's supposed to be a one-time occurrence. One shot to prove my skills in bed.
But that one shot turns into a deal, which morphs into something neither of us predicts.
One thing's for certain—everything is about to get simply complicated.

About the author

S. Nelson grew up with a love of reading and a very active imagination, never putting pen to paper, or fingers to keyboard until 2013.
Her passion to create was overwhelming, and within a few months she’d written her first novel, Stolen Fate. When she isn’t engrossed in creating one of the many stories rattling around inside her head, she loves to read and travel as much as she can.
She lives in the Northeast with her husband and two dogs, enjoying the ever changing seasons.

- Reviewed in the United States on September 30, 2021Oh what tangled webs we weave when first...we DON’T COMMUNICATE! I loved this story. It is interspersed with moments of sadness, laughter and love. So worth reading!
- Reviewed in the United States on April 26, 2024This book had some of the best banter. These two just couldn't help themselves given their chemistry and even tho they had a delayed start it was all the more faceted once they got going. Living a bit of life before settling into domestication isn't necessarily a bad thing.
I really loved these two together ❤️
- Reviewed in the United States on September 29, 2021Having read Ms.Nelson's work before I've been looking forward to picking up more of her books! As soon as i stumbled across the synopsis for this one i wanted to read it next! I enjoyed this story!
Olivia and Luke's journey fits the title of this book perfectly. I really liked how these two had a history and the way they're brought back together. I enjoyed getting to see how they would tackle things in their life and how i felt many things with both characters throughout reading!
With Simply Complicated, Ms.Nelson has created such a good read! I am so looking forward to picking up more of her work soon!
- Reviewed in the United States on October 14, 2021Just the types of characters in this book makes it so enjoyable. I mean a star soccer player and a mechanic.
These two knew each other very well 10 years ago for a short time but nothing but sadness and hurt was evident at that time. Explanations were necessary before 10 years happened. A star soccer player and a female mechanic.......who'd have thought? Loved this , thank you!
- Reviewed in the United States on September 30, 2021I loved the plot of this book!
Luke is swoon worthy!!!
I loved how Olivia wanted to keep things on the up and up and not get attached!!!
I love the story and how the author told it so well!
Im usually drawn into her MC books, but indont think theres a trope by her i wont read!!! Need more!!!
- Reviewed in the United States on January 2, 2022Another great read from SN. Lots of feels and emotions. Love the banter.
Luke and Ollie reunite when Luke returns to town and he overhears Ollie needing help with a problem he is more than happy to help with.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 18, 2022For the most part, I enjoyed the story. Great ending, especially the confrontation with the ex.
However, both characters seemed unsure of themselves. Olivia's insecurities and uncertainty became annoying at a certain point. For an almost 30 year old, attractive, successful woman to harbor so much doubt was disappointing. And for her not to be able to tell Luke know sooner why she harboured anger for him was disappointing and childish. She could have easily used her sass to set him in his place the first night they reconnected.
The saving grace throughout the story were her relationships with friends and family, and Luke's determination to not give up in them.
I wished I could rare this a 3.5.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 29, 2021I like reading S Nelson's books. I was given an early copy to read for an honest review. I enjoyed the book and the characters were for the most part likeable. The only thing negative I can say is Luke came across as a little bit needy. I understand he wanted to help his old crush out with the big O, but he just seemed like he didn't have a backbone and Olivia came across as a lit bit of brat. I did end up enjoying the book towards the end. I really like this author and will continue to read her books, I just didn't connect totally with these two.

5.0 out of 5 stars A beautiful journey of true love
Gah this book was so captivating I could not put it down. Two people who loved each other since their teens happen to meet again by chance. This is a must read for anyone who loves a sassy girl and a beautiful man.
