Played by Him (New Pleasures Book 2) Kindle Edition

4.5 out of 5 stars 1,633 ratings

I should have known that things were too good to last. The moments of happiness I’d had through my life had always ended in heartbreak, and I should have expected more of the same. I should have protected myself.

In Fort Collins, Rona Quick thinks she’s finally found everything she’s always wanted. A home, with friends and a good man who cares for her. As she allows billionaire genius Jalen Larsen to breach the defenses around her heart, some part of her is still waiting for the inevitable crash. When it comes, she throws herself into her work to forget. Work that is even more dangerous than her feelings for Jalen.

Check out Played by Him, the second book in M.S. Parker’s excitingly hot New Pleasures series.

    This author has a way of creating enticing and strong characters and weaving their lives together in the most seductive and sensual way. Every novel is original and unique and I look forward to each new book as they are released.
    "Thinking was almost always a problem for me. I had so much going on in my head that I sometimes lost sight of who I was. Of what was important. What was good in my life."
    "Sometimes, it was almost like a memory of the pain I'd been in that day, a ghost. And it wasn't the only ghost that hovered around my subconscious, as my nightmare had reminded me."

    I feel like I’m on a roller coaster that has gone bezerk! Jalin is getting on my last nerve with his insecurities.....however, I’m intrigued to the point that I have to keep reading this series! I can’t imagine a young woman of Rona’s age being so willing to go into dangerous territories with her PI job; but, her past has made her strong and independent! I’m anxious to read the next book, hoping that Rona will, finally, find happiness and be rid of her deranged father!

    Rona and Jalen keep fighting through their own issues as well as all the outside problems being thrown at them. Rona with her new business and just adding more grief is her father. Jalen has his insecurities and maddening problems with his almost ex wife.

    It seems to be a puzzle with pieces scattered in all the wrong places.

    The story is quite good, but a bit slowly paced is some places. The cliff-hanger ending is frustrating. I wouldn’t have started the book had I known there was no conclusion.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A thrilling continuation
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 27, 2018
    What an excellent continuation to the first book Claimed by Him ,there are so many sub- stories going on it makes for a really good read ..... and of course the sex between Rona & Jalen is really hot phew 😉🔥🔥🔥. After the events in the first book we see Rona carrying on her relationship with Jalen and her friendship with Clay , the business that she inherited from her late boss Adare continues to prosper and she also kepping up her FBI and personal investigations for Jenna .Throughout this story Elsie, Jalen’s estranged wife ,keeps popping up and causing problems for Jalen& Rona and also with Clay staying in touch with Rona it’s bringing the green eyed monster out in Jalen it’s safe to say there’s a lot of issues to be resolved . After having a warning from the FBI to stop investigating the cases that Jenna passed on to her , Rona has a word with Jenna and both believe they are on to something big and vow to carry on. Things start to get dangerous for Rona when she is mugged and ends up in hospital where Clay and Agent Mathews arrive to drop the bomb shell that her father has escaped from jail . With her life in danger she goes to stay with Jalen ,where again his ex interrupts them and gives Jalen some life changing news ,needing to get away Rona leaves the house and calls an Uber taxi but she’s abducted by who .......? All I know is I can’t wait for the conclusion to this story roll on August 22nd.

    5.0 out of 5 stars All 3 books worth reading
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 1, 2018
    Downloaded the first book a while ago and finally got time to read it when on holiday in late July. Loved the first book so downloaded this to continue reading while still away but only to be gutted by the ending. Won't spoil the story but needless to say I preordered the third book and read it quickly once it was released.
