Product Description

Escape. All Brage Connell wants to do is escape his hovering friends, who think they're doing the right thing by keeping him under constant surveillance. A neighborhood dive bar with few staff and even fewer patrons looks like the perfect hiding spot from everything and everyone...including fans of Lexical Diffusion, the band he plays bass guitar for. So when Brage meets Jo-elle, a spunky, curvaceous barmaid who has absolutely no interest in his infamous rock star life, he is both amused and aroused.

His proposition: One night of incredible passion between two people otherwise uninterested in any kind of commitment. But Brage didn't count on being drawn to the one woman who wanted him as a man and not a musician.

Loneliness. Joel "Jo-elle" Malone doesn't realize just how lonely she is until the man she secretly desires strides into her bar. Player or not, she can't pass up the offer of one hot night between the sheets with the only man who makes her pulse race. But in the cold light of day, she is reminded that he is a player through and through.

Her plan: Get Brage out of her head--if not her heart--and find a man who will make her his one and only. But when the player's interest suddenly seems to change to include a future with her, can Joel trust him to change his player ways?

1.0 out of 5 stars Bad....Just Really Bad., August 9, 2010

This review is from: The Player (Paperback)
I hate to have to give this book one star because I'm a fan of Rida Allen's and I've read all her novels, but it doesn't deserve anything higher. Some of Allen's novels are great and even those that aren't, are at least tolerable. I've noticed that Ms. Allen's writing has been getting better in terms of descriptions and style, and the set up of this book was good, it was just poorly delivered.

I felt no chemistry between the main characters. Outside of their one night stand, they didn't spend any time together so I don't understand how they could be in love. I don't want to put any spoilers so I'll just say that this is supposed to be a romance novel, but it spent too much time on a situation that was not at all romantic. I understand the need to include it, but there didn't need to be so much focus on it. The characters spent more time apart than together so where was the romance? There also wasn't much focus on the size of Joel, which is somethign that Allen is known for--writing about BBWs. It's as if she wanted to downplay that aspect. I'm sorry I just can't recommend this book because I regret the time I wasted to read it.

More About the Author

I was born in and have lived in suburban Maryland all my life, moving only three times and even then, less than half an hour away each time. Growing up, I was the youngest and only girl in a family of four siblings, suffering mightily and for many long years under the hands of my three older brothers. To escape, I locked myself away in my bedroom with books, books, and more books! I am and have been a voracious reader of romance novels for as long as I can remember...even before I was writing my own stories as a pre-teen.

At 11 years old, I started my writing hobby with poetry, then began writing "short" romantic stories at about 12. Although I always wanted to be a writer, I found myself instead working with computers. I was in the computer industry for more years than I want to remember, first as an amateur and then as an expert (of sorts).

My husband and I met online (before online dating was even a glimmer in some internet boomer's eye), and we knew each other for eight years before we got engaged and married. Even now, after more than eighteen years together, we are best friends, and he is one of my biggest supporters. We live close to both our families and spend as much time with them as possible. We have spent recent years in our single family home, purchased partially for the large yard that our dog thinks is her own personal park.
