About Play Me
He is supposed to be playing rugby—not playing me.
I did not think it was possible to hate someone. Like utterly despise another human. Then I was hired to babysit the Royals’ newest star and found out just how wrong I was.
My job should have been easy. Keep the hotshot on time and out of trouble. But that is hard to do when I dream of smothering him with his jersey.
Every day delivers a new reason to detest Gray Adler. His truck is the size of a whale, and he uses the horn like a weapon. And, no, that is not a euphemism. He can’t manage a sentence without being rude. And the universe, in its cruelest joke, gave that tattooed, walking red flag the body of a Greek god.
Just when I finally get used to hating him, things take a turn.
A scalding-hot, mind-blowing I can’t do this with a man I work with sort of turn.
Suddenly, those rough hands make my skin sizzle. His sinful smirks fade into grins just for me. And our banter shifts into something much more profound than it should.
But Gray Adler is hiding something. And when those secrets collide with my vulnerable heart, I ask myself an important question. Is he finally telling me the truth, or am I still getting played?
