BROKEN PLAY
Birmingham Rebels #1
Samantha Kane
Releasing Sept 1st, 2015
Perfect for fans of Shayla Black and
Lexi Blake, the deeply sensual new Birmingham Rebels series introduces an
unforgettable team of chiseled football gods—and the daring, provocative games
they play behind closed doors.
Birmingham Rebels offensive linemen
Beau Perez and Cass Zielinski are inseparable, on and off the field. Cass, the
captain with the cowboy swagger, is a loose cannon. Beau, the veteran tight
end, is cool under pressure. And ever since they were caught on tape in a
steamy threesome, their exploits have fueled more than a few tabloid
headlines—and naughty fantasies.
Marian Treadwell knows all about the
video. And now that she’s the Rebels’ new assistant offensive coach, she can’t
look at Beau and Cass without picturing their hard, naked bodies—with her
pressed in between. Marian would like nothing more than to indulge those
impulses, but she knows better than to get too close to her players, a bunch of
adrenaline-fueled alpha males who don’t always follow the rules.
Just the thought of sharing the
gorgeous yet guarded Marian drives Cass wild. At first, Beau isn’t sure she’s
right for them . . . and lately, all he desires is a little alone time with
Cass to explore their new intimacy. But it’s only a matter of time before Cass
breaks through both of their defenses. Because when seduction is the game plan,
he always plays to win.
Broken Play is intended for mature audiences.

Excerpt:
“Hey,
sugar, come here often?” Jo Jo Jones said to her as he came around from the
showers wearing nothing but a towel, his dark-cocoa skin starkly contrasting
with the white terry cloth. Jo Jo was a great linebacker, but he had a death
wish. He couldn’t stop smoking weed, and he liked to tease Marian. One of those
was going to get him thrown out of the NFL, and the other was going to get him
dead.
“Really?”
Marian said with exaggerated disappointment. “You had the whole day to think of
a come-on line, and that’s the best you could come up with?”
The
guys all laughed and Jo Jo got snapped with a few towels. He laughed, too, as
if he’d really been joking, which was good. Cass crossed beating him up off his
to-do list.
“Okay,
gentlemen—and I use the term loosely,” she said, teasing them. “Today is press
day. You get to be smart and funny and irresistible for the press corps. Make
yourselves pretty before you join us back on the sidelines.”
There
were groans from all over the room. “Oh, man,” Tyler Oakes, team quarterback,
said. “You have to, too, right?”
Marian
frowned. “Hello? I’m already pretty.”
Cass
laughed out loud with the rest of the team. “You sure are,” he said, loud
enough for her to hear him. Her gaze darted over to him, as if she’d been
avoiding looking at him but couldn’t help herself now. He was sitting there in
his shorts and nothing else, sweating. Beau was leaning on the locker in front
of him, similarly undressed. Cass looked at him, hoping to lead Marian’s eyes
that way, too. Beau was sure enough pretty when his copper skin was all sweaty,
his tats gleaming black and slick.
Marian
cleared her throat and Cass turned back to her. “Uh,” she said, blinking
nervously as she backed up, holding the door with her hand. “Thanks. Hurry up.
Down on the field. Press. Bye.” She turned and hurried off, letting the door
swing closed.
“That
girl got it bad,” Jo Jo said with a whistle. “You gonna put her out of her
misery, or let me pick up the pieces of her broken heart?”
“Do
you have a death wish?” Cass asked quietly, rearranging his to-do list again.
He took a sip of his water as he stared at Jo Jo over the top of the bottle. Jo
Jo backed up, his hands in the air.
“No,
sir,” he said, shaking his head. “Not me. I didn’t say anything.”
Beau
laughed. “Chicken.”
Jo
Jo grinned. “You got that right, my man. Smart chicken.” He laughed as he sat
down and started to get dressed. “See, I’m gonna be the first one down there
with Miss Marian, while you pigs still got to wash the dirt off.” He laughed
again as he danced out of the way of Cass’s reaching hand. “None of that,” he
chided him. “Miss Marian would be very put out if I appeared all bloody for the
press.”
“We’ll
just make sure you don’t appear at all,” Beau said, which made Cass feel
better. Beau may not have been actively pursuing Marian, but he was definitely
interested in her, thank God. Cass didn’t want to be with a woman without Beau.
He hadn’t been for . . . hell, three years. There was something between Marian
and Beau. He just had to push it past the edge of whatever it was and into sex.
No, more than sex. He wanted more than sex with Marian and Beau. It was time
for more.
Before
he could digest that mind-boggling thought, Beau slapped his shoulder. “Come
on, man,” he said. “We’ve got to shower and get down there before they miss
us.”
“Coming,”
Cass said. He put aside his confusing thoughts and focused on the upcoming
interviews. He really hated the press.
Review:
It has been quite awhile since I have read a Samantha Kane book, after reading Broken Play, I am trying to figure out why?? This book was absolutely fantastic, sexy, cold shower-inducing, and it left me completely satisfied (just like Cass & Beau would-I am sure)
Cass & Beau are the bad-boys of football. Their reputations proceed them where ever they go. Marian knows all about their reputations and wants to be a part of all they can offer. Cass and Beau balance each other out, on the field and off. Where Cass is in your face aggressive, Beau has a more laid back and thoughtful approach. They have shared everything for years including women, but it isn't until Marian comes into their lives that they both realize what's been missing in their relationships ~ intimacy ~ with each other.
It seems they have both been holding back.
