Logan Forrester knew that he was more than qualified for a promotion to his company's executive team. The only thing standing in his way was the fact that he was single, a real problem in light of the company's recent efforts to become more family-friendly. With no time for or interest in dating because of his dedication to his job, Logan decided that his best option was to find a fake girlfriend to accompany him to several upcoming corporate events, hopefully helping him to secure the promotion at last. After
approaching two of his ex-girlfriends and getting shot down, Logan asked a new acquaintance, construction company owner Olivia Watts, for help. While she wasn't initially a fan of Logan's "rich boy" persona, Olivia agreed to help him in exchange
for his help with the house her company was renovating for a charity that supported single mothers. The more time they spent together, the more difficult it was for them to deny their intense chemistry, and eventually the fake relationship turned into a friends with benefits arrangement. Could there be something real between them after all?
I really enjoyed how playful and flirty Logan and Olivia were with each other from the moment they met. Even though they were opposites, they complemented each other well, and it was easy to understand why they were attracted to each other. I found it very easy to cheer them on to their HEA.
Overall, "Brazen Player" was a cute, fun story with just the right amount of steam. I enjoyed and would recommend it for all contemporary romance and romantic comedy fans.

About "Brazen Player"
We’re both playing the game. But who’s going to win?
Logan
I should get this promotion to the executive team. I have experience. Loyalty. Smarts.
But the one thing I don’t have is the one thing I’ve never been able to achieve: a family.
My personal life shouldn’t matter, but the executive team is filled with family men and women.
Me? I’ve had a revolving door of dates. It’s just the way I like things—casual, no-strings.
But it’s time to toss out the little black book and get serious.
I need a woman who’s feisty, someone who can handle me.
Someone strong and funny and intelligent.
Someone like that hot little brunette I see in the elevator who sets my libido on fire.
It’s lust at first sight.
Too bad she can’t stand me.
Olivia
Men—the bane of my existence!
Between my nuisance ex and people who think a woman doesn’t belong on a construction site…well, they can all kiss my curvy ass.
As a home renovation expert, I know my way around power tools.
I’m taking things to the next level, renovating and flipping a condo in a high-end building.
I’m out of my element here. I can tell by the way the unit owners look down their noses at my paint-stained clothing and work boots.
Especially the snob in the suit I meet in the elevator.
He thinks he’s better than me. I certainly don’t need a snooty jerk like him…
Until he makes me an offer I can’t refuse.
Brazen Player is a fake relationship romance inspired by Stuck-Up Suit.
