Full length, stand-alone novel. No cliffhangers!
TEMPTATION HAS NEVER BEEN SO HOT . . .
When Raina Beck is given an invitation to The Players Club, all she wants is a night of decadence with a gorgeous, sexy stranger. The seductive, mysterious man she meets fulfills her deepest desires and most erotic fantasies, giving her a night she’ll never forget. But forgetting him isn’t quite so easy.
… forget. But forgetting him isn’t quite so easy.
Logan Cruz prefers his women submissive and compliant in the bedroom . . . everything the independent Raina is not. Yet from the first moment he lays eyes on her, he’s determined to make Raina his. Despite her resistance. When Logan is assigned to protect Raina from a stalker, everything between them changes. Sex becomes more than just physical, and emotions run deep. Falling in love was never on Raina’s agenda, but can she let go of the past and surrender the one thing he wants the most . . . her heart?

Raina has lead a life of indescribable headaches. When she went to the players club and woke with a set of handcuffs and note on door she freaked. Yes her life was different and unusual but she loved it. But when Logan came along she didn’t know what hit her. He was only to be her body guard but became her bodies desire.
I absolutely loved reading this book it like a fairytale story for grown-ups
I liked this romantic erotic story
Great characters, good plot, plenty of hot hook ups!
I love this author. She never disappoints
SIZZLING HOT! This book tends to have more power exchange than other books I’ve read, and that is a good thing. Raina is a strong, career-minded
woman with a few hang-ups about men. Logan, alpha through and through, surprisingly, does not try to “break” her, but gently brings her out of her shell.
By allowing her to have control sometimes, he creates a dynamic that works for them. I found that this type of relationship is more believable, one that
I would even strive for. I wish, however, that the mystery was more developed, as this would have given the story more layers. All in all, it was a very
good read.
Received the first book free, Playing With Seduction. enjoyed it so much had to buy the next two. This is the third in the series and did not disappoint.
It was ok. Writing was placed well enough, characters could of been more developed
loved the book and its characters
I’m already looking forward to the next part already.
Really enjoyed this book. Liked the characters and the story was well written.
This was the first book I have read by this author, and will not be the last for sure.
The character’s chemistry was a bit distant, but still felt connected enough to pull the story off and not seem forced.
I was intrigued to find out who Raina’s stalker was.
I do wish there was more time spent in the club scene, maybe in the next one?
This was not a heavy bdsm book (my opinion), but does have a small amount of the dom/sub relationship in moments. This book also does deal with adult toys in a classy way and I feel did a justice for anyone who runs an adult boutique.
Recommend reading 🙂
Enjoyable romance. Surprise character who did it. With a Hea ending. My kind of book.
Loved !!!

This afternoon, I decided to take a quick look at my existing ‘to read publishing July 2015’ list of books and OF COURSE I come across Playing with Pleasure and I get ALL KINDS of excited!!! Until I realized … damn, I did it again, I read a book and did not review. And yes, that book is Playing with Temptation!!
Better late than never, I say ……
Let me tell you what I love to read. I love to read strong alpha males who not only get to go toe to toe with their female counterparts (strong alpha female), but maybe, just maybe, they aren’t as confident and dominant as they’d like the whole world to think…. I loved this story 🙂
The one thing that is unique about this story is that altho there is a mystery/suspense trope in the story, it isn’t the focus at all. You actually forget it’s even happening. The only thing it was good for, was to bring Logan and Raina together. And for me, that’s awesome. Because those two … together…SEXUAL POWERHOUSES! And nothing took away from that in this story.
OK, so you should know, Logan and Raina have history. The gist is simple. She gets an invite to ‘The Club’ . She goes. She an explosive night with Logan. She leaves. Simple. Until it isn’t … Raina’s got herself a problem. She’s got a stalker. So she needs professional help. And so their paths cross again … and THIS time, Logan is not letting go!
This was an extremely sexually powerful story. Raina was determined to not lose control in anything of her life and Logan was equally determined to breakdown all her barriers. They were incredibly sexy together. #Perfection
The writing was flawless and sexy and quite frankly … just plain good. There’s no need for fancy here. There’s a lot of sex going on in this story, but it was tasteful and necessary for these two. It’s how their story needed to be told. Kudos to Erika Wilde for telling it properly!!
a lot of alpha male but still enjoyable read…
Imagine having the hottest sexual encounter of your life with a gorgeous man then running from him before he even finds out your name. You see him the next day when he becomes your bodyguard after someone leaves a threatening note on your door….awkward! Raina Beck owns a successful lingerie/ adult toy store and as a result she’s judge by her occupation rather than who she is. She’s had enough disappointments in her life that she doesn’t put herself out there anymore to get hurt. Logan Cruz is her newly assigned bodyguard and absolutely delicious. Their chemistry from the moment he sees her at the Players Club is off the charts. He takes his job seriously and does his level best to keep her safe from her stalker. The stalke,r who Raina does know, manages to slip by Logan one day and attack Raina in her storage room. Fortunately Logan shows up and saves her before irreparable harm can be done. Raina tries to keep Logan an arm’s-length now that his job is done but he’s not going for it. She finally realizes that her feelings are too strong for her not to just go for it. After all he would be her dragon slayer if she let him. And, she’s going to let him.
What an amazing story and great start to a new series! This story was hot and sexy and a bit naughty. Definitely not for the faint of heart. So beware. There is a wonderful love story in between all the down and dirty sex. And to make it even better, there was a little bit of of mystery involved as well, in the form of a stalker. Loved the chemistry between Logan and Raina. I definitely could not put this book down. Can’t wait to read the next book in the series. Love me some alpha men.
This is Book 1 of The Players Club Series
This is the story of Logan & Raina. Logan is in security and works for her friend, Jillian’s husband. Raina owns a store named Sugar and Spice, a sensual adult boutique. Jillian gives her an invitation to The Players Club. Raina has a very intense experience there, but no names are given. It definitely leaves an impression on both Logan and Raina. Something happens the next morning at her apartment, and Jillian’s husband, who is in security, puts a bodyguard on Raina. Guess who that bodyguard is? Oh yes, his name is Logan, from the club. Raina has many issues with men because of her boutique. Her walls are up high because of it. She’s been burned quite a few times. Will Logan care? You must read to find out. You won’t be sorry. So much intenseness in this story, and very steamy with a bit of kink.
