Playing the Game: A Core Four Series Novella (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781969305993)

Grief is a journey, or so Quincy has always been told. Still mourning her first love, and running from the truth that haunts her, she never expects a simple bucket list to send her careening on a collision course into the hands of fate . . .

. . . or the arms of NHL's most notorious playboy.

Sebastian Adamare has long since learned to live with his demons, his dark past filled with regrets carefully hidden behind his celebrity persona. To the world, Bash is nothing more than the NHL's most eligible bachelor and lovable playboy, and nothing is going to change that.

Until he meets her.

One chance encounter, one seductive night filled with explosive chemistry couldn't change his mind, could it?

But when the truth comes to light, and the dark vixen he meets turns out to be the one woman who is completely off limits, the lines of fate and obsession blur together, changing the rules of the game. How far will he go to keep her, when winning could cost him everything?
