About The Book:


Keira's last single friend just got married, leaving her roommate-less. When Rory shows up at her door for an interview, she's more than a little surprised to find out that a guy has answered her ad. Living with a man wasn't exactly what she had in mind. But when all the other applicants don't seem to be a good fit, she can't help but let her mind wander back to Rory. Maybe he's exactly the kind of roommate she needs. 

Rory doesn't do relationships. He's been burned before. He hasn't had anything more than a one night stand in a long time. And he's good at what he does. He's charming, confident, and completely off limits. 

Keira can't get her mind off of him. Will she be able to learn how to play a player? Or will she be the one that ends up getting played?

Are you ready to get played?


My Review:


Playing A PlayerPlaying A Player by Ivy Smoak
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Playing A Player by Ivy Smoak is a full-length standalone romance that involves a female/male roommate arrangement, a roommate pact, a hot male player and a steamy tryst or two dozen.

Keira is looking for a roommate - AGAIN. Her friends keep getting married and moving out and she feels like she is just spinning her wheels. When Rory shows up to apply for the roommate position Keira is thrown off by both his good looks and his manner. He steamrolls right over her insistence that she thought Rory was a girl's name and no men were supposed to apply.

The banter between Keira and Rory and his friends is both funny and awkward - she has a tendency to ramble when nervous and Rory's hot body and confident player-like behavior DEFINITELY makes her nervous. So what happens when the roommates step over that line between friendly behavior and an intimate tumble in bed?

The bare bones of the story were fun. The sex was very hot and kinky. It seemed a little busy and rushed in parts but I think perhaps as it was originally a serial and was since published as just one book this might be why. In my experience serial novels are usually short but crammed with all kinds of happenings. I'm still dithering between a 3 and 4 star rating and will sleep on it. Lol.
