Playing with Hearts

It was just a one-night stand.

The hot baseball star was supposed to be my last hurrah. A handsome stranger to get lost in before I started working for the man who’d always controlled my life.

No feelings. No attachments. Nothing but a few drinks, a spin around the dance floor, and a couple hours of passion.

But come Monday morning, any hopes of never seeing him again were dashed when I found out he played for the ball club I now worked for. I couldn’t get rid of him, even if I wanted to, and that put his life on the line.

She was a game changer. One night with her, and everything I thought I wanted was turned on its head.

Convincing her to give me a chance was only the beginning. There were bigger things at play, some so dangerous it threatened our lives.

But I was determined to make it work. To have her in my life. The only problem was, someone else was dead set on cutting our time together short.
