Beyond the Play

Parker: Of all the hot guys in the club, of course I find myself tangled up with a baseball player. Our chemistry is out of the park, igniting as his athletic body moves next to mine.

I know exactly who he is, but the infamous Holden Bailey has no idea who I am, or my connection to the team. I prefer it that way. I give in to one dance with Holden and send him home alone.

He can have any woman he wants, but for some reason, he wants me. His pursuit is relentless. He wrote the playbook on being a player, though. Giving in could cost me my heart.

Holden: I thought getting traded to the Blaze was life changing, but it's nothing compared to meeting Parker Monroe. From the moment she bumps into me on the crowded dance floor, I can't tear my eyes away.

She's gorgeous, intelligent, and definitely not interested. At least not in the player the media portrays me to be. I need to convince her that with her, I'm authentic, and what we have is the real thing. Game on.

When the truth gets twisted, it looks like I'm playing her. But she has it all wrong. The way I feel about Parker is beyond the play. She's my end game.
