Cal and Zelda absolutely blew me away! I was on the edge of my seat the entire time reading this book. While there were some intense parts to read, it did not pull me out of the story. Seeing Zelda’s strength was so inspiring and everything she had to overcome. In the first book, Cal comes off as the “player” prince, but his growth and journey with Zelda is beautiful. The world’s Tia creates is so beautiful and so powerful that you just can’t help but fall in love!
This was such an exciting read. It continues and concludes Cal and Zelda’s story and it’s epic. It’s thrilling and I love the different locations. I could actually picture them all in my head and see the characters there. It’s dangerous, and intense and so sexy.
5 Stars
Full of suspense, twists, turns and a love that cannot be denied…Cal and Zelda will grab a hold of you and not let go until the end! The second book in the Dirty Players series picks up with all the excitement we experienced in book 1. Cal and Zee have so many obstacles, physical and emotional, to overcome throughout their story, but when you have a strong hero and heroine, they will get their HEA. Though there are moments that will make you cringe and cause your heart to stop as these two conquer danger, you will melt and feel all the joy when moments of purse pleasure ultimately win!

I received a complimentary copy of this from Wildfire marketing and I volunteered to leave an unbiased review.
As soon as this dropped into my kindle, I needed to read it. I read it so quick! But I wasn’t bored for a single page. Cal and Zelda were put through quite the adventure and I was on the edge of my seat for most of this. Considering what most of this revolves around, this was a lot of fun. I’m very picky about my royalty romances, but this one as well as Prince, was a surprising winner for me.
Audio Review
Love in unexpected places. The story continues in this book with Cal running after Zelda from book 1. I loved both Cal and Zelda and wanted them to have their happily ever after but it takes some doing for them to get there. This book is packed with danger and extreme situations that they find themselves in and that they may not survive. There are twists and turns that keep you guessing as to how the ending will turn out. I love a story like that where I can’t figure out how it is going to end. We still have Ava and Rowan to catch up with as well as all the other characters from book 1. Great adventure and love story.
Natalie Duke and Gary Furlong did a great job of narrating this book. They were believable as Zelda and Cal and I enjoyed listening to their voices.
I loved the book and recommend it.
Wow!! A Player For A Princess is the second book in Tia’s Dirty Players Series and it is just as crazy! Crazy good!! So much action, suspense, heartache and love; it blew me away! I recommend reading The Prince & The Player first so you have all the needed amazingness!
Zelda is in trouble and on the run. She thinks as long as she is far away from those she loves, they will be safe. Little does she know they have been planning this out so far in advance she will never be able to get ahead of them.
Will Cal be able to use every available resource to find her in time or will his future be gone forever?
What a finish!! I didn’t want their stories to end. I am glad to see there are more books in this series and can’t wait to dive in!
Audiobook: Narrator – Natalie Duke & Gary Furlong
Excellent narration! I never struggled with understanding any of the accents and both male and female voices were exceptional. These narrators really added to this story in a way that simply reading it would not. So much depth and emotion contained within! I need more!
This picks up right where book 1 ends for Zelda and Cal. While things took a darker turn towards the end of The Prince & The Player, this time around, things go very dark. Zelda is caught up in something that I never expected. But she’s a strong heroine and despite her fear, she stands her ground when needed to protect those around her.
Cal is caught up in a tsunami of emotions. He is furious at the secrets he’s learned regarding Zelda, but he also wants to throttle her for her past decisions and above it all, he wants to make sure she is safe. He’s a wonderful hero that I liked well enough in book 1 but fell hard for now that I had his own point of view and was able to get a look into his thoughts.
This is a wild ride from beginning to end. It’s got a fast pace that kept me listening when I would normally turn it off and the angst level gets pretty heavy. There is a lot of action and drama, as well as smexy times that had me making sure no one could hear what I was listening to. While this appears to end with a happy ever after for this couple, there is still a thread dangling that is threatening all of these characters.
This one was as good as the first
A sexy romanctic thriller!
Cliff hanger
A fun but twisted read. I want more!
Really enjoyed this well written story and characters!
Still #TeamCal all the way!!! In the conclusion to Cal and Zee’s (and Rowan and Ava) story, Tia Louise has upped the heat of my favorite couple. Cal is determined to find his Zee and get to the bottom of what exactly is going on with her. He wants her safe and he wants her with him, and his protective, dominant tendencies come to a head in a Player for a Princess. My favorite dirty prince is even sexier, even dirtier, and this time, even more angry, so when he gets a hold of Zee…well, damn does their fire light up the Caribbean skies!
The action is explosive in this sequel/conclusion, and it drives their relationship to new heights. I love a Player for a Princess even more than The Prince and the Player. It’s as if Tia took all the heat, all the action, all the dirty talking, from the first book, and amped it up x1000 and put it into the conclusion.
1-Click this series, and do it now because if you love Cal and Zee (and Rowan and Ava) like I do, you will be really glad you did.
a player for a princess
Wow. This one is even more action packed than the first one. We follow Zelda on the run, followed by evil men that want to keep her from talking.
Cal is on her heels but will he catch her? Are other players ahead of the game?
Part of the story was very intense and raw at times, and I loved how Zelda’s attitude and her big heart helped her to stay in the game.
Cal stole my heart even more..made me swoon and dang, the man is fine and is hot as hell.
I love them together, love how they are perfect for each other.
There is a twist in the story I didn’t expect but made me melt like crazy.
This second book got me hooked from page one and never let go until the very end.
Fun romance
Good read!
