Series: Rules of the Game #5
Genres: Contemporary Sports Romance
Tropes:Brother's best friend/secon chances
Release Date: April 24, 2024

There's only one rule when it comes to dating: avoid baseball players at all costs.

Growing up with four older brothers in the pros, I've seen firsthand how baseball players act off the field, and after a disastrous experience confessing my feelings to one at seventeen, I vowed to never make that mistake again. But now, my brother's best friend—the very one I confessed my feelings for years ago—is determined to change my mind and tear down my defenses.

Jenner was there when I had my accident and probably saved my life. But he's also the one who made me run away in the first place. His rejection still stings, even though it shouldn't. And now, I'm caught between desperate attraction and fierce suspicion I can't ignore.

Just as I start to believe him, our fragile bond is tested by old insecurities and the challenges of dating your brother's best friend. With expectations I'm not ready to handle, I've spent years shielding my heart from players like him—and I'm not sure I'm ready to give that up.

Can Jenner help me rewrite our story or will my fears make what we both want impossible?

Playing the Player is the last book in the Rules of the Game series and can be read as a standalone featuring a no nonsense heroine and a hot baseball player hell bent on breaking down her walls.

Tropes: Sworn Off Relationships/Afraid to Commit

Release Date: March 25, 2024

Vowing to never sleep with a baseball player might’ve been a curse upon myself.

Given that I suck at relationships, I’m perfectly happy to never be in one again. Men can’t be trusted. Or maybe it’s my heart that can’t be trusted. I don’t know. Either way, especially after the epic fail of a hook up last year with a baseball player that won’t leave me alone, baseball players are no longer an option.

Then Urban Briggs tells me, a stranger, that he’s going to make sure his teammate leaves me alone. Great. I could use the help. Except that player doesn’t leave me alone, and Urban ends up volunteering at the summer camp I’m working at. Of course, he does. His family’s charity runs the camp. Now, I can’t avoid him, and he’s too hard to ignore.

At first, Urban is fine with our arrangement. After all, he’s leaving as soon as the season ends if he has his way. He doesn’t want to leave behind any attachments, either. Sounds perfect, right? Wrong. Can I risk my heart one last time, or am I going to let the best thing in my life walk away?

Wanting the Player is book two in the Rules of the Game series and features a broody baseball player and a woman who isn’t supposed to fall in love who happens to work at his family’s summer camp, where he’s volunteering a little of his time, a standoffish heroine, lots of steam, and it wasn’t supposed to be you vibes.
