An over-the-top, insta-love contemporary romance novella with heart!This story is told from a dual POV. She’s intrigued by her sister’s fiancé’s brother, but he’s out of her league. She’s a virgin, and he’s a big, bad biker – and a player. When Emma sees Jake for the first time, she hides who she is. That only works until their siblings become engaged. Once the truth is out, can he forgive her … truth is out, can he forgive her for keeping her identity a secret?
What happens when she decides “the player” would be the perfect person to take her virginity. Players don’t “catch” feelings for their sexual partners, and he should know exactly what to do with his…well, you know.
That is only the beginning of the story.
Complications arise when a member of The Raging Guardian Motorcycle Club sets his sights on Emma to get revenge on the Callahan family.
What will Jake sacrifice to ensure Emma’s safety?

Alexis Chase has become one of my favourite authors. She has a way with bringing her characters to life. Emma and Jake fall for each other fast, but then the author throws in some suspense. I love how Jake would do anything to keep her safe. I also loved that Emma had a lot of spunk and knew how to take care of herself. This is a great short read if you have some down time.

This book is well written, exciting, funny and enjoyable – love the amazing dialogue and the banter between the Callahan family. The chemistry between Emma and Jake is instant and they fit each other perfectly. It is a page turner with some drama and it will hold and keep your interest from the first page and some scenes will make you laugh out loud. I look forward to reading more about this family. A MUST READ.

Another fantastic book by Alexia Chase. This full is full of humour, action, steamy hot loving and an instant attraction for Emma and Jake. Emma’s sister Anne is marrying Jake’s older brother Sean and they try to keep their romantic a secret from their siblings because Jake is a player and Emma is a virgin. Emma asks Jake to come to her house to fix her plumbing and he certainly helps Emma with her problem.
There is action from a biker who targets Emma to get to Jake and her life is at risk. Read how the whole of Jake’s brothers rally round to protect her. You will love the antics of the characters in this story and fall in love with them. You can’t go wrong reading any of Alexia’s stories for entertainment. Oh yeah, they do have a very happily ever after. All I can say is next………

The Player by Alexia Chase is a quick read novella focusing on Emma, a virgin attracted to her sister Ann’s fiancé’s (Sean) brother, and Jake, Sean’s brother who is a MC biker and player. Emma and Jake have an instant attraction, but sinister forces are at play. This book is well written with an interesting plot, drama, forbidden love, rollercoaster relationship highs and lows, and sizzling chemistry. This is the first book I have read by Alexia Chase and I plan to read more in the future.

This story picks up during The Bad Boy story of Sean and Anna. Alexia Chase continues with Emma and Jake’s story.
Jake is thought to be a player, maybe in his pat but now he is trying to get his degree. Emma always under the nail.of her sister, just wants to find who she is.
Emma and Jake have such a great chemistry that melts the pages and makes putting the book down difficult and wanting more.

It’s a quick insta love romance. You feel like you really get to know the characters. Emma and Jake had great chemistry. I got so invested that I was sad when it was over. I wanted more.

3 1/2 Stars
Not as over the top as I thought it would be, but it was short and sexy. Lots of open dirty talk between sisters with their guys around that I guess could happen in real life, but I thought the dialogue was kind of YA in nature.
Their attraction was steamy, but their relationship seemed kind of highschool-ish. A bit of drama when Jake broke it off with Emma to protect her but failed to tell her that was the reason.
All in all an entertaining short read.

I loved this story. I liked the little bit of Emma and Jake from the first book and I am glad they got their own story. I liked the way they meet and that when Emma decided she wanted to loose her virginity to Jake she went for it. I thought they had great chemistry. I loved that Jake was more than meets the eye.

Previous books from this author that I have enjoyed reading were written in single POV but there was a second story where as a reader you got to read the story in the ‘Flip’ side. This book is longer but we get both POV in one story. Meet Emma and Jake, where Emma is a virgin who is attracted to Jake, who happens to be her sister’s finance’s brother. Jake is a player and so he is perfect for the job that Emma wants him to do. Can you guess what that is? As the story unfolds, the road to HEA becomes very bumpy and twisty. Another great story that has some secondary characters from other books – I loved this part. I cannot express how awesome it is to read a quick, dirty and HEA piece of heaven and easy fit this into an already busy day. There is no shortage of story or character details, always get a fantastic HEA read. Enjoy!
