Wicked Player, an all-new forbidden sports romance by Stacey Lynn is now live.
Gage Bryant has the best hands and the quickest feet of any wide receiver in football.
He also has a secret—one he’ll do anything to protect.
He’s a member of The Velvet Club. With airtight non disclosure agreements, playing at Velvet gives him the freedom to assert his dominance and control in a way that not only serves him on the football field, but the way he craves in the bedroom.
What he doesn’t expect is for his most recent partner to be one of the reporters assigned to follow him around in the weeks before he opens a new wing at the local children’s hospital.
When it’s clear Elizabeth Hayes has no idea he’s the man who had her blindfolded and bound beneath him, Gage realizes things just got a lot more interesting.
He can have her body at night, giving her all the pleasure she begs for in a way he needs. And he can keep his heart, as well as his identity, out of their encounters.
After all, the absolute worst thing that could happen would be to have this sexy little reporter reveal how wicked he truly is.
Review:
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars
I liked the book. It had a lot of strong moments and some of them were very emotional, which wasn't something I was expecting from a book that began with the main characters doing steamy stuff to each other (dang you Amazon for your language rules on reviews) without knowing who the other was. I liked that the author didn't drag the whole "I don't know who the other person is" thing for too long. It would make me question Elizabeth's investigating skills and Gage's sight.
I liked the writing and the pace of the book. When it comes to a Stacey Lynn book I usually end up not liking one of the main characters, but fortunately, that wasn't the case with this book, so I guess that from my perspective her writing has improved! I liked both, Elizabeth and Gage and their relationship. Overall, Wicked Player is a book that I would recommend. I liked pretty much everything about it, despite some not so good parts.

Excerpt:
I memorized his stats. Six-four, two hundred fifty pounds. Born in 1986. And then I stumbled on a photo spread he’d done for Men’s Health and my jaw dropped. Butt freaking naked. A football helmet held in front of him was the only thing covering him. And hot damn. This guy. Chiseled, strong jaw. Straight Roman nose. Piercing eyes. He was freaking gorgeous. My heart rate kicked into fast gear. My fingertips sizzled. I had to spend weeks following this guy around? The very idea sent a pulse of excitement to the tops of my thighs I tried to shake away. I couldn’t get a crush on this guy. He was a source. A story. But good grief to the high heavens, he was the most beautiful if stern looking man I’d ever seen in my life. “Holy shit,” I whispered, forgetting we worked in an open office and even though I was quiet, people could hear me. “What is it, Elizabeth?” That came from Amanda. “Oh dear. You got the Gage story?” She was already at my back, peering over my shoulder. “Man as sexy as that shouldn’t be allowed to walk free,” I said. “I know.” She laughed and bumped my shoulder. “He’s God’s gift to women that’s for sure. And yet from what I’ve heard, he’s never had a girlfriend, at least not one he’s gone public with.” “Really?” I twisted in my chair and faced her. “Never?” She shrugged. “Not in the four years he’s been here. And I’d know. Rough Riders are my team. I follow all of ‘em on Twitter and Instagram. He posts a pic and gets over four thousand comments, mostly from women, but to the best of my knowledge, he’s never been seen in public with a woman except his mom.” Wow. That was…that was crazy. Everything leaked. “Hmm,” I said, tapping my finger to my lips. “So I would imagine the public would want to know if he was involved, right?” She laughed lightly. “Yeah, but watch yourself. This is a hospital piece, not a gossip column. You go digging too far and you’ll blow your chance.”
