Tucker Mitchell was the one who got away. Not that he knew he’d plagued my dreams for the last decade. A run-in here, a run-in there, kept those fantasies alive and well. Or maybe it was the memory of the night we gave in to our attraction, only to come to our senses the next morning. A moment of weakness for both of us. Our lives were too complicated—we were too complicated. But ten years later, I couldn’t get him out of my mind and now I had to work with the former DEA Agent. Not only that, we were going undercover as fake husband and wife. Professionalism wouldn’t save me—not when I was already in love with a man who I couldn’t have. But my past could—I’d hold on to all the heartbreak and keep myself safe. Tucker was a means to an end—nothing more. He couldn’t be.

ATF Agent Liza Monroe was the very definition of bad timing. From the moment I laid eyes on the woman, I knew letting her walk away would be my biggest regret. And over the years, those regrets compounded as our lives remained out of sync. I thought I had my shot—going undercover is the perfect opportunity to remind her how good we were together—only to find out she wasn’t the same feisty, open-book, beautiful woman I’d met. She now had thorns and walls, and the harder I tried to break through her boundaries, the harder she pushed back.

Unfortunately, life proved our luck hadn’t changed and bad timing took on a whole new meaning when I finally put a few cracks in Liza’s armor just when she caught the attention of the ruthless cult leader we were after.
Liza or the mission?
The choice should’ve been easy, but just like everything else with us, it was anything but.

Playing with Love is a second chance, friends to lovers romantic suspense with a closed off heroine who fights to keep her heart intact against a hero who will stop at nothing to win her. Be warned, Tucker takes fake dating to extreme steam with his dirty mouth and persuasion.
