The Player's Game Alice Gaines

I've got to admit, life is sweet these days. As a starting NFL quarterback, I do okay, and I haven't been lacking for female companionship. But I'd give it all up in a heartbeat if I could get back the woman I loved and lost-my ex-wife, Katy.




Now I'm at a wedding, watching one of my best friends tie the knot. I'm happy for him-really. I just wish things had turned out better when I'd taken that walk down the aisle. Still, those days are over.




I'm on my way up to my room when I run into my ex in the elevator. It's like karma. Has to be. Only she's with some random guy, who's getting a little too handsy for my liking. I can't help myself-I have to say something. Something that ruins her night...and mine, too.




Now, I'm sitting alone in my hotel room, when suddenly, Katy's at my door, complaining that I ruined her 30th birthday. Her solution-that I give her the night of sexual adventure I'd derailed in the elevator.




I never was very good at saying no to her...
