He's America's Football heartthrob — with a dirty, dark secret...in the bedroom.

Alyssa

I’ve always been kind of a workaholic.

Well, maybe not kind of.

But when you have big ideas like I do, you can’t afford to get distracted.

That is, until you meet a man like Logan X.

Tall, mysterious, rich, and sexy.

He funds my start-up.

In exchange for my body.

I have to be available to him at all hours, on beck and call.

Ready to be tied up and teased.

Ready to be pleasured.

Being with him is the only time I feel that I can let go and be myself.

It’s a no-strings-attached arrangement.

But now, I’m falling for the mysterious man.

And I don’t know if I can stop before it’s too late.

Logan

My whole life, I’ve done what’s expected of me.

Obey my father.

Make it to the NFL.

Become Mr. America, the next man on The Bachelor.

The only problem?

I’ve got a deep, dark secret about my...proclivities in bed.

Well, that and I f*cking hate following the rules.

When I meet a gorgeous blonde, all bets are off.

She’s wild. Fun. Sexy.

And very, very submissive.

Being with her is the most fun I’ve ever had.

But can a dark heart like mine, love an angel like hers?

Hard Player features a hot bad boy pro sports athlete with a dark naughty secret, and the woman he can't get enough of. HEA guaranteed/No cheating. This book was previously published under the title, Mister X.

Good story💜

This story was just okay for me. Although I felt like the way their relationship started was unrealistic, the overall storyline was pretty good. The sexual chemistry was hot.
The narration was good. I love Rodney Falcon’s narration but I still have trouble with his female voices.

Sisters Spotlight 💜

Good story!💜

Alyssa and Logan’s unique relationship started as two mysterious strangers with magnetic chemistry. This story stirred up different emotions in me. I respect that Logan is a celebrity and his anonymity was important, but Alyssa was so quick to forgive him and let everything slide which I found frustrating. I enjoyed listening to Rodney Falcon narrate this story.

I enjoyed the journey with Alyssa and Logan and their D/s relationship. The dynamics of their relationship worked for them and was interesting and entertaining to watch develop. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a great job bringing it to life.

What a steamy read! Rodney Falcon had my ears burning...in a good way. This is the story of football star Logan and his chance meeting and secret arrangement with Alyssa. They have a secret dom/sub arrangement. Logan is the all American good boy to the world but behind closed doors he is something much more darker and sexier. But he can't let his secret get out. But Alyssa starts to make him question himself and his choices. Can he really stay happy in the dark? I loved how she brought out the side of him that shouldn't be ashamed of what he liked. She clearly proved he wasn't alone. This is a steamy romance, yes. But it's also a story about being true to yourself, no matter what anyone else thinks. Rodney Falcon was a great narrator for this story. His voice oozes sex appeal. A must read/listen for romance fans...especially those who like a steamy dom/sub relationship.

A steamy read to inspire

This is a nice short sexy story. I liked the characters. Alyssa has a cool idea for a app. She seems smart but once she see Logan her brain becomes mush. Logan has some issues and I’m not talking sexual. He has pressure done his handler and his father.

Overall this is a good. I wish there was a bit more between these two. I feel they don’t know each other because they just have sex when together. I did listen to this on audio. Rodney Falcon did a nice job.

Nice

So this book states it's a fake relationship sports romance. Yes he's a quarterback, but it really was not about his job or his team. And as far as I am concerned it was not a fake relationship. They did not pretend to be dating in any way shape or form. They had a contract for sex (dom/sub) and that was their relationship.

The story was interesting. He doesn't want the public to know about his Dom tendencies. She never thought she was a sub. But somehow it works for them. She lives in Sin City and he is visiting for meeting that he doesn't even want to go to. They meet up at a party and that is how things start.

I hated Logan's handler. He was a douche. But I think that was the point. He made Logan do ridiculous things. He was not a good choice to handle Logan. I loved the scene where Logan told him he's FIRED. That was the best.

Rodney Falcoln did a nice job of narrating this book. I enjoyed the flow of the dialogue from him.

Not what I was expecting
