Don’t hate the player, hate the game… Hunter Adams is a pro football player and my brother’s best friend. He also happens to be the one person in the world I hate. Desperate to keep the reason why I was kicked out of the college I was attending a secret; I agree to be Hunter’s fake girlfriend for his brother’s wedding in the Bahamas. There’s only one problem… it doesn’t really feel like pretend after all. Not with the looks Hunter is giving me, or those searing kisses. I'm seeing a whole different side to Hunter, one that I might actually like. One that makes me wonder if we can be real, or if we’re just playing the game?

Work hard. Play harder. I’m a player - both on and off the field. Avery and I have been friends since we were kids. In a moment of weakness, she winds up being the latest addition in my playbook and everything falls apart – our friendship and my life. I’m spiraling out of control, and with my football career on the line, there is only one person who can save me. Even though she hates me, Avery agrees to pretend to be my girlfriend to help repair my reputation. We’ve already blurred the lines of our friendship once, and playing this game isn’t making it any easier. Will my fear take control, or will Avery be the one to finally get me to quit playing the field?

Quitters never win. Winners never quit. And I am no quitter. The gorgeous blonde I had a one night stand with three years ago breezes back into my life without warning. I may have made a mess of things back then but there is no way am I letting her go this time. The only problem? She hates me for what I did to her. Lucky for me, she needs me. When her jerk of an ex shows up, she panics and tells him that I'm her boyfriend. She thinks we're pretending, but what's happening between us is one hundred percent real, and I will do whatever it takes to prove it to her. We can play this game all she wants, but this time I’m playing to win.
