The Mommies Reviews

I would like to share a new bad-boy romance with you called Playing To Lose by Brooke Reign (Author) which I received a PDF Copy of the book from the Author and Voracious Readers in exchange for this review. Inside this post is my affiliate links. If you click on the links and make a purchase I will make a percentage from the items you purchase.

Meet Hunter Efron co owner of Efron Worldwide Casino Corporation, billionaire boss by day and playboy by night. Hunter can get any woman he wants into his bed, that is until he meets Dorothy. Dorothy is the forbidden fruit, but that doesn’t stop Hunter from pursuing her.

Dorothy is the new Director of Marketing for Efron Worldwide. Dori is working at her dream job and gets the promotion she’s always wanted, her brother’s best friend (Jami) is back in town and she’s always had feelings for him but he’s off limits according to her brother. Although, Dorothy has always been in love with Jamison

Dorothy meets this absolutely gorgeous man at the party to celebrate her promotion who ends up being her extremely sexy bad boy billionaire boss, Hunter. Be prepared because things may get rocky folks but you will not want to miss what happens! Or at least I didn’t want to miss out.

The love triangle in the book is very well written and for me the story in the book made it book hard to decide who Dorothy should end up with. The question you will be asking yourself is are you Team Jami or Team Hunter, No, I’m not going to spoil the story and tell you who I would like Dorothy with or even who she chooses because you need to read the book for yourself.

The fun part of Playing To Lose is the author brings us a love triangle like no other with Hunter pursuing Dorothy, Dorothy confronting her feelings about Jamison, and Jamison trying to land a contract deal with Efron Worldwide Casino Corporation. Grab your favorite beverage and plan on not moving until you finish the story because once you start reading the book you will not want to stop.

I would like to prepare you that Playing To Lose story containing mature content including Sexually Explicit Content, Mature Content/Language, Miscarriage, Domestic Violence, Parental Death and this book ends on a Cliffhanger. This book is a romance for adults only and even though its more for women I am sure there are men out there that would enjoy the story.

About the Book:

Two men, one heart-wrenching choice.

Career-driven Dori Fisher knows better than anyone that nothing good comes from love, so having two men fighting for her affection just seems like double the problems.

To make matters worse, she’s forced to work with them in close proximity on a make-it-or-break-it business campaign. She can’t escape her undeniable attraction to them, leaving her heart pulled in two directions for two very different reasons.

If she chooses her brother’s best friend, she’ll be disowned by the only family she’s got. If she chooses her billionaire boss, she can kiss her dream job goodbye. Finally, she feels like love is worth a shot, but if she doesn’t decide soon, she’ll lose them both.

Playing To Lose is a forbidden workplace love triangle romance that fans of T.L. Swan, Ivy Smoak, and Vi Keeland will fall in love with.
