One scorching look. One sinful night. One man who ruined me for anyone else.
I wasn’t looking for anything more than a night at The Players Club to forget my troubles. But then Ford Perish crashed into my life with a body made for sin and a smoldering stare that promised things no man ever dared to offer me.
When trouble at work turned into a full-blown threat, Ford became more than a temptation. He became my full-time bodyguard. My living, breathing, test of control. Living under the same roof as this infuriating man was delicious torture. He invaded my space, my mind, and my body until there was no part of me he didn’t own.
The danger closing in was real, but nothing terrified me more than the way Ford touched the places inside of me I swore no man would ever reach. He didn’t ask me to be perfect. He didn’t try to fix me. He wanted the real me—the troublemaker, the survivor, the woman who needed a man strong enough to break down her walls without breaking her spirit.
In the end, it wasn’t the threats that wrecked me—it was him. And somewhere between the danger and the desire I found the kind of love that didn’t hurt, but healed.
Playing with Trouble is a steamy, enemies to lovers romance featuring a possessive hero, rebellious heroine, and a collision of hearts that leave them both reeling from a love they never saw coming.

KEEP READING FOR A LOOK INSIDE Playing With Trouble…
Tonight, Ford Perish—tall, gorgeous, dark-haired—looked exactly like the kind of bad decisions I might be in the mood for.
I slipped off my heels, letting them dangle from two fingers as I walked along the edge of the pool.
“Violet?” His voice sounded startled, but the way his gaze raked over me felt anything but casual.
“Didn’t expect to see you here,” I said, resorting to my normal flippant tone. “Or are you just following me around now?”
Ford smirked and took a slow sip of his drink, his gaze unapologetically skimming up my bare legs, then taking in the way the fabric of my dress outlined the curves of my breasts before he met my eyes again. “If I’d known you’d show up looking like that, I would’ve followed sooner,” he drawled.
“Flattery from you?” I arched a brow, letting a small, disbelieving smile tug at my lips. “Did hell freeze over?”
“Nah, I just don’t mind giving credit where credit is due.” His voice dropped to a husky pitch, as though he liked the push-pull game we were playing far too much. “You clean up nice, Trouble.”
My brows rose. “Trouble?”
He shrugged, drawing my gaze to his bare, tanned chest, and a little lower, an impressive six pack cut into his abs. “After our run in at the skydiving place, it seems like an apt nickname for you.”
“You were being an insufferable asshole that day.”
“And yet here you are, dressed like sin, flirting with me by the pool at The Players Club. Maybe I made an impression.”
“Oh, you did,” I replied with mock sweetness. “The kind that makes a girl fantasize about duct tape. Over your mouth.”
That made a few of his co-workers snicker in amusement, but Ford merely tilted his head, his stare so intentional my skin prickled with heat. “You keep talking like that, and I’m going to assume you want to be gagged and put on your knees.”

My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I have to say i’m was not a huge fan of Violet. She really got on my nerves with her attitude, but by the time i was was half way through this book, it started to become more clear why she is the way she is and it was all a protective wall to keep her from get hurt.
Ford on the other hand has had my interest ever since he was introduced to us. He calm presence, but freak behind closed doors spoke to me on so many levels. The way he handled her was a thing of beauty and when she finally let herself feel and be with him, everything click in place and I was rooting hard for them to find a way to sail into the sunset.
This story was not my favorite but I still liked it. She was a handful and he was just the man for the job to keep her in check.
