Synopsis
Cassidy Whalen is as determined as they come. An Irish girl from a small fishing village, she worked hard to pursue her love of American sports and land her dream job as a sports agent with a major agency in LA. Unlike her colleague, Shaw Matthews, who believes you should work smarter, not harder. Although it's assumed Shaw comes from money, he doesn't. What he did inherit was a genetic gift of charisma, and he used it to his advantage, establishing connections at an early age that helped him climb the corporate ladder. He's arrogant and used to getting his way with women, but he's met his match with Cassidy, who's out to prove that anything he can do, she can do better.
When a partnership position with Striker Sports Entertainment is up for grabs, Cassidy and Shaw are in a head-to-head competition to snag the most sought-after athlete in the country. Let the games begin! Playing their sexual strengths against the other's weaknesses leads to an affair that takes the competition . . . to their offices, the co-ed bathroom, the boardroom, the supply closet, the elevator, and anywhere else they're given the opportunity. But before long, they're left wanting much more than to one-up each other in just the boardroom; they want to out-do each other in love, too.

Kirstin's Review:
Playing Dirty by C L Parker. 5 out of 5 stars
If you loved Beautiful Bastard by Christina Lauren, then you will love Playing Dirty!
Shaw Matthews is the sexy, arrogant sports agent who can charm his way into and out of any situation. Cassidy Whalen is his beautiful competition, who is known as the ice queen and is willing to accept any challenge thrown her way.
These two have hated each other since the first day they met.
But sometimes there is a fine line between love and hate.
Their relationship is a rollercoaster ride of one-uping each other, insults, passion, and dirty sex, but eventually the line between scratching an itch and having real feelings for each other gets blurred.
My only word of caution...this book has a hair pulling cliffhanger that will make you growl in frustration when you turn the final page to find that it only contains the author's acknowledgments and not a happily ever after ending. So beware, you have been warned!
But at the same time let me say that I do not give a review of 5 stars very easily, so if you pass up this book you are really missing out on a fantastic read.... you'll just have to eagerly await the conclusion just like me!
Author Bio
C.
L. Parker is
a romance author who writes stories that sizzle. She’s a small-town girl with
big-city dreams and enough tenacity to see them come to fruition. Having been
the outgoing sort all her life—which translates to “she just wouldn’t shut the
hell up”—it’s no wonder Parker eventually turned to writing as a way to let her
voice, and those of the people living inside her head, be heard. She loves
hard, laughs until it hurts, and lives like there’s no tomorrow. In her world,
everything truly does happen for a reason.
