Grant Osprey just had the hottest sex of his life. Sure, they were both in costume, and yes, it was anonymous, but he never expected her to bolt in the middle of the night without so much as a good bye, let alone exchanging numbers. Or names. All he’s left with are her panties and some seriously X-rated memories…until he meets his business partner’s little sister.
Only Chloe Talley isn’t the bold, sexy vixen he remembers. And she wants nothing to do with him.
Cosplay is Chloe’s only chance to leave her boring, socially awkward world behind. To forget that she’s failing at life and can’t be with anyone, let alone a single-father like Grant. But the raw hunger between them is undeniable. With him, she can be a misbehaving maid. A sexy call girl for hire. Each scene pushes Chloe beyond her strict boundaries, until Grant demands the one character she can’t play.
Herself.

HOLY SMOKES BATMAN! If you love Comic Con, gamers, and hot stories, this book is a one stop shop for you! Playing For Her Heart is a fun and sexy story about two people who meet by chance at Comic Con, and after one night of passion, they go their separate ways only to be thrown together in real life circumstances they didn’t see coming. Chloe and Grant fit so well together and their romance will burn the pages of your book right out of your hands. It is smoking hot flash fire that soon turns into a deep burn that cannot be ignored.
This book was really sexy, like maybe one of the sexiest I have read. I don’t know if it was all the role playing or the intense connection of the characters but in the end I was blushing and laughing at their humor throughout the story. The characters in a book like this, one that is sexy within its genre, can have a tendency to be focused only on the physical aspect of the relationship as opposed to the rest. This book does a great job of balancing those two. It is primarily focused on a physical connection but as the story progresses, the reader begins to see more of who Chloe and Grant are in everyday life and how they function as working adults. When you throw in a raging inferno of lust and physical connection to a growing story of emotional connection, the story begins to grow into something a little more. It doesn’t switch to a serious, heavy book but the characters and situations allows for the book to expand in ways you might not expect.
As a girl who loves Comic Con and the nerdy side of the world, I loved this theme. The story starts at Comic Con and it sets the stage for their role-playing and adds depth to the personalities we see. I loved how it added some fun to the story! Another theme I loved was family. Grant loves his family and supports them all! We begin to better understand Chloe’s personality based on her family’s history. Her brother is her best friend and their relationship is sweet, despite the strain of the stark reality. These snippets of different family issues draws us further into who they are as people in everyday life.
Chloe and Grant fit so well in every way. He brings her out of her shell and she gives him something to fight for. Their relationship is not perfect but when they are together it works. In the bedroom there is nothing that can keep them apart. When that reality translates to real life it is the beginning of a happily ever after that will make you sigh.
Chloe craned her neck and moved to go around the man, but the he sidestepped, right into her path. She glared at him. Or rather, she glared at…Doc Ock.
A Doc Ock who was leering at her.
For God’s sake.
He twisted at the waist, so his metal octopus arms clanged together. Leaning into her, he pulled a string near his head so a claw snapped in her face. “Need a hand untying that corset, baby?” He held out his hands so that all four of his metal arms lifted. “Because I got six.”
This was what was keeping her from Breck? A Spider-Man villain? She raised her eyebrows, emboldened by her costume so she could say what she never could without it.
“Seriously? That’s your come on?”
He blinked at her. “Uh, yeah I guess so.”
“That’s the best you could come up with?”
His lips twisted to the side. “Well, uh, how about, are you afraid of spiders? Because I can protect you.”
She rolled her eyes. “Spiderman already beat you once and—”
And then her world tilted as someone gripped her waist and slung her over a hard shoulder. Then she was moving as the body who held her began walking. She protested with an umph and raised her head, watching Doc Ock stare after them with wide eyes, his metal arms clanking.
Chloe tried to get her wits together, remembering this was cosplay and she was Sari and how dare this guy pick her up? She turned her attention to her kidnapper. Or rather, his back. His blue-shirt-clad back. “Hey, put me down.”
He did with a thunk, and once she righted her skirt and brushed her hair out of her face, she got a good look at Breck. Her Breck.
Her incredibly hot rescuer.
She placed her hand on her hips and tried to keep the breathiness out of her voice, because damn. “I was doing just fine back there.”
“I know you were,” he said in a deep voice that skittered down her spine like fingers. “But I wasn’t. Had enough of watching that guy trying to hit on you.” Those full lips, so full they were almost feminine, twisted into a smile. “I wanted your attention. Because you’re the best Sari I’ve seen today.”
Chloe sucked in a breath. Oh yes, he’d do.
