“This girl already had me thinking of tomorrow. Which meant she wasn’t only beautiful, but dangerous.”
He is betting all his chips on a dangerous and alluring game. And that can cost his heart.
Connor Quinten is focused on renewing his contract with the Rough Riders and helping his team reach the Super Bowl. There is no room for romance in his life. But all his resolutions go into space as he sees that angel dressed in white on the dance floor.
Brenna Kemper has the appearance of an angel, but her intentions are far from candor: she seeks a partner to get rid of her virginity. What she didn’t expect was to meet the right guy and end the night so wrong. And finding out days later that he is one of her father’s team players makes the situation complicated… and exciting.
An unlikely love story. He, the soccer player who does not get involved in relationships. She, the daughter of the team owner newly hired to work in the marketing department. Until the cliché comes into play: and the agreement that should not involve feelings changes even before they can realize it.
Gradually, each one seeks to overcome trauma and open to each other, seeking to share new experiences, as well as making room for sensuality while sharing their most secret fantasies.
A book with the right amount of boldness and tenderness blended into an engaging narrative. Which shows us that the way to happiness is to allow oneself to love and be loved, despite the past and all its imperfections, traumas and fears.
*ARC provided in exchange for an honest Review *
Connor is quite use to catching the eye of every woman in the room, his good looks and fame are like beacons to women. But unfortunately it usually draws the attention of the wrong kind if women, the ones who only want what his lifestyle can afford them, and not the man standing in front of them. Which is why is has gotten so good at mastering the one night stand, he’s a no feelings and no relationships kind of guy all the way!
While out with his buddies one night at Glitz his eyes happen upon a woman that draws him in like a moth to a flame. His first initial perusal of her leads him to believe she is just like the rest, but after a few heated kisses and some serious unexpected fireworks he can’t seem to forget her… and that is something the ‘king of one nights’ is not a master of!
Cocky Player is a wickedly addictive little page-turner that will reek havoc on your heart, and stir up some serious swoons! Within a matter of minutes of meeting these two they pulled me deep into their forbidden little relationship and had me hanging on their every word, I just couldn’t pry my eyes from the pages. Each word was doused in emotion and passion, there is now way you will be able to walk away from this one without feeling something… it’s riddled with feels. I have loved every installment in this series, and quickly deemed Oliver’s story as my favorite, but I have to say that after meeting Connor my feelings have strayed… Connor was completely irresistible! I have no doubt that you will love what you find between the pages of this one, it’s perfectly penned words are good on the heart, and guaranteed to have you reaching for a fan!! Highly recommend!
I requested an advanced copy of this title from the publisher, and I am voluntarily leaving my honest opinion.
Brenna was determined to find a one-night stand to lose her V card to and when she felt the pull to the stranger she knew he was going to be the one, although it didn’t end quite how she thought, or that attending the even her parents hosted for the team that he was one of the players.
Conner thought she was an angel, the women always wanted the spotlight he could give them and never him, he knew she was different though, she made him think about a tomorrow. Until it went wrong, finding out she was the owner’s daughter was a shock, but there was no way he was going to let her give her virginity to someone else and he agrees to teach her everything she needs to know about sex.
They tried to agree to not emotions, no public dates, nothing to tie them together, but the lines start to blur. He was the team playboy, she was protected and sheltered by her family because of her past. When Brenna’s fears from her past show up, she pushes Conner away, and he realises he wants everything with her and he’s going to get her back.
Sheltered all her life by her family after a traumatic incident that happened in the past, Brenna thought it is high time for her to take charge of her life and lose her V-card. She may prefer to lose it to a complete stranger to avoid drama later on, but she has criteria. She wants it to be with someone who knows what to do and could give her the time of her life. Only she didn’t count that it will be to a football player under her father’s organization. Connor isn’t into relationships. He is only good for one night stands and with a demanding career, he doesn’t have the time and the energy to invest in a relationship. But after meeting Brenna, he only has one thing in mind; teaching her all the moves in the bedroom department. Only problem with this kind of agreement, feelings get involved, hearts are on the line.
Alright, I think I’m gonna need several showers here due to the hotness that is Connor Quinten, whew *furiously fans myself* Guys, behold your next book boyfriend. Connor is one hot, sexy, cocky, alpha male this side of Rough Rider Football team, who knows he’s got it and never shied away on getting all those girls falling all over their self for him. But one look at the innocent looking girl dancing at the bar, Brenna, he knew she’s danger that’s waiting to happen. Not only because she is his boss’ daughter but because she could be the game changer he never seen coming. The heat level of the scenes between Connor and Brenna are enough to incinerate your e-reader and undies in zero flat time. No kidding, LOL. But aside from that, I love that during this, they have helped each other grow, mature and conquer their fears. There is just enough drama, plenty of sexy times, and a very healthy dose of romance that made this an entertaining, page turner read. This is my very first read from the author and it’s safe to say it won’t be my last. Loved it and highly recommend to sports romance fans out there!
First off, I’m not usually one that is into books where the main heroine is basically striving to lose her v-card just because. BUT, because of that, the main heroine in this book, Brenna, is searching not just for a guy to finally lose her v-card to, but she is also looking to enjoy her freedom and her now “adult” life outside of school. After going through a rough ordeal when she was just a little girl, she has been sheltered in the protection of her family and going to all-girls schools since then, that now she feels ready to start spreading her wings.
What she doesn’t expect is the guy who she is about to lose her v-card to to be one of her dad’s star football players. And for him to find out she’s a virgin before any of the good stuff even happens.
Talk about embarrassment.
Conner is known to only do the single hookups where he takes what he wants and leave the women happy, with nothing more. But when the angelic sight of Brenna catches him in the club he is a silent owner to, he knows she is his “tonight”. But what he finds out that night has him flipping out. But then a few nights later he flips out even more when he realizes the girl he always took the virginity of is his Boss’s daughter. And when she lets him know she will just find someone else, something foreign goes through him and he won’t let that happen.
When they both find themselves falling hard for each other, the struggles Brenna has been trying so hard to overcome come rushing back. Pushing Conner away seems like the best solution for them, but yet he won’t let her push him back, and because he will just keep pushing forward. He just has to convince Brenna they can BE.
This book was everything I expected it would be.
Hilarious, swoon-worthy, tragic, and oh so good.
I love a good romance, and throw it in a series with some amazingly hot football players and you’ve got me hooked. Stacey Lynn knew what she was doing when she wrote this series, because OMG these players are smoking, and making panties melt left and right!
Conner brings dirt talking to its finest with the sweet innocent Brenna to receive it all.
Wow!!!! What an amazing 5 star story this was. I always loved this authors incredible story telling, but Cocky Player was a freaking masterpiece.
Brenna wants to find someone that will give her what she wants. She’s looking for a one night stand. The guy who’s looking at her from the top of the balcony at the club sounds like a good prospect. There’s only one problem, he’s a football player in the team her father owns. Things are about to get interesting.
This story had a lot going for it. It was sexy, sweet, fun and heartbreaking at times. Brenna went through something tragic and it broke my heart to read about it. I basically devoured this story in one sitting. Too bad I had to work and get some sleep. The storyline was unlike anything I’ve read. It’s so addicting that I had a difficult time putting it down. Bottomline this is a must read.
This is part of a series, Rough Riders but I rest assured it can be safely be read as a standalone. Told in a dual POV with an kick ass HEA. I strongly recommend this story.
Wow! This is my first Stacey Lynn book and it took my breath away! I loved this book from the beginning to the end. When Conner and Brenna first see each other across the club you can feel the sizzle between the two. You know it’s just the beginning. Conner and Brenna never plan on falling in love but there was chemistry when they first met and it just continued to grow. This book is a great read and full of romance with a little twist of real life getting in the way and past tragedies that they have to get past in order for their love to grow.
Decidently Dirty with ALL the Feels Read!!! Oh boy, did this book keep me up late at night reading!!! Loved it, loved it, loved it!!
This is the first Stacey Lynn book I’ve read and I can’t begin to express how much I loved this book. I was blown away by the storyline, the naughty bits, and how well crafted it was.
Connor was the right amount of cocky, detached jock that grew at the right emotional speed and displayed the perfect vulnerability that made him ultra irresistible.
Brenna was also the perfect mix of innocent wrapped with enough sultry sinner to keep Conner’s interest, yet just enough emotional stuntness to also grow right along with him.
These two were the perfect combination for their non-relationship/relationship (whatever they were calling it day by day) and it was glorious to watch them both come out of their cocoons. Whether it came to dating or bedroom skills this couple continued to blow me away with how they handled situations.
Their similarities and differences pulled me in and made this a page turner late into the night.
Cocky Player is a must read and can be read as a complete standalone (it was for me since this was my very first, but won’t be my last).
Connor is a bad boy player on and off the field. He meets Brenna and she’s not his type as she’s too innocent. Brenna happens to be the owner of the team’s daughter and marketing specialist. She wants to lose her virginity and Connor is more than willing to help her. A night turns into all kinds of unexpected chaos for them. A sexy, dirty talking male and a read with plenty of steam.
Connor for the win!!!
Cocky Player is the fourth book in the “Rough Riders’ series. Each book gets hotter and dirtier than the last and boy did this one live up to the previous three’s reputations.
Brenna and Connor were an explosive mix of sweet and OMG sexy as sin.
Connor is the perfect guy, sweet, kind and has a brilliant sense of humour. He made me laugh as much as Brenna. He also managed to make me cry but this guy?? He’ll have you swooning like never before.
Brenna might have been a virgin, but she knew what she wanted once she laid eyes on Connor. Honestly. He never stood a chance, lol.
Great read for a late summer day in the garden, just don’t let the neighbors hear you moaning. 😉
The absolute best part of this story is how the author turned an incredibly sexually charged attraction between the two leads into a sweet and heartwarming connection. The story/journey unfolded perfectly. I loved how they discovered themselves in the process of discovering each other.
This author is always on-point with plot and character development. I have yet to read a story she has written that falls short.
Cocky Player is book 4 in the Rough Riders series, but it can be read as a complete standalone.
The story introduces you to Brenna and Conner. Completely opposite in personalities, these two really know how to burn up the pages with their undeniable, red-hot chemistry and fiery passion. Although their initial attraction brings them together, without either of them knowing who the other is, it’s the sweet, emotional, and compassionate connection they share throughout the story that truly encompasses your heart.
Each character is flawed in their own way. Where one is a timid virgin with lingering PTSD from a traumatic experience in her past, the other is, well, a cocky player. Their relationship progresses from lust to love, flowing perfectly with the dynamic of the storyline. And what really shines in the story is each character’s personal and emotional growth, and how their relationship was build on honesty and trust.
I cannot get enough of the author’s books. Each story is written with finesse and bleeds emotion. Love isn’t easy. Sometimes it’s messy, complicated, and heartbreaking. But the author takes imperfect characters and makes their love story perfect for them.
Who says Football players can’t be sensitive and loving? Not Me!! Connor is one of the most attentive, generous and caring men I have ever had the pleasure of reading about. Now that doesn’t mean that he isn’t sexy as all get out, No. Especially since he is now Brenna’s teacher in all things sexy and hot.
This book is so much more than just a story about a sexy ball player and his innocent girl, no this is a story of overcoming your past. A past that haunts you and paralyzes you. A past that you crippled and alienated.
I felt all the feels while reading this book. From the highs to the lowest of heart breaking lows. This book is so much more than what you assume from looking at the cover. Yeah Connor is more than what he seems. Showing us that there is always more under the cover of every person you meet.
A beautiful romance from Stacey Lynn
There is nothing better than a cocky football payer. Wait until you meet Connor. You will just love him. You feel the pull between Connor and Brenna from the start. Brenna will steal your heart once you find out about her past why her family treats her the way they do. She is stronger then you can ever imagine. The chemistry between Connor and Brenna is so hot and sweet at the same time. I love this bosses daughter/sports romance. Stacey Lynn pulls you in from the start. I’m so in love with the Rough Riders series and Cocky Player is my favorite yet. If you haven’t had a chance to read any of from this series then do so now. Go one-click this one.
Love that you can definitely read this as a standalone even with more books in the series! This was the first book from this author that I’ve read and I really enjoyed it, although it took a minute to get into! Brenna has decided to put herself out there and get rid of her innocence through a hookup with a stranger named Connor. But things backfire on her when after meeting the perfect guy, things don’t go as planned, and even better – they realize who each other are during a team event where Connor is a player and Brenna is a new employee as well as the owner’s daughter. Knowing things could go south fast, both are upset with each other because the other did not disclose their relation to the team, but while there are risks, this pair decides to follow through. This storyline is a typical womanizing jock turned best guy in the world, and especially after learning about Brenna’s past and why she held onto her innocence for so long, everything clicks in this book. So while I was originally confused, that part of the book became a turning point and I really enjoyed the book and storyline. I definitely will go back and read the previous books in the series, especially getting a little bit of information on the other players.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
These football players stories are always soooooo good!!!!! Connor met the mystery angel Brenna at a club one night. Their attraction was instant. One thing led to another until he found out she’s the daughter of his boss, lol. Well that didn’t stop him they tried to keep it a secret but of course that never happens. They had a rough patch and surprisingly her dad stepped in and gave his blessing. It was a fun read and of course I enjoyed seeing the other Rough Rider players especially my favorite couple Oliver and Shannon, . Can’t wait for more of these players.
I’m such a big fan of this author and her work!! Slowly I have come to the conclusion that I’m in love with sports romance! These athletes are just so dang alpha male and protective!
Connor made me insta-love him from the beginning! I know he was made to be a player and he didn’t do relationships…. but from the beginning he had my heart! The sexy football star made me tingle in all the right places even before the sexy parts started!! He is the ultimate alpha male, sexy dream man!!!
Brenna on the other hand was my least favorite person. I’m sorry but I couldn’t handle the indecisiveness about everything. I completely understand her past is crazy and horrible and something no one ever wants to hear or live through but I didn’t like her. She seemed to grow quite a bit towards the end but it wasn’t enough to change my mind about her.
I love several of the supporting characters and can’t wait to read what’s next!! Congrats and I’m so sorry I didn’t like her but it was written beautifully!!
Usually I’m am all obsessed with the male in books and don’t get me wrong, I absolutely loved Conner. He’s the major man whore, you know doesn’t get attached, hit it and quit it and all that. But, y’all I loved Brenna. She’s been through so much but still has a quirky sense to her.
These two are amazing together and just what the other needs. Cocky Player is a read that will touch your heart and steam you up all at the same time. Loved it.
