From USA Today bestselling author, Laura Lee, comes the sexy and heart-wrenching new standalone story set in the Windsor Academy world.

They call me a player.
A joker.
The guy always down for a good time.

But if they knew the secrets I’ve been keeping, they’d call me something else entirely.

For the last two years, I’ve been buried in shame, numbing the pain with various vices. Drowning in self-hatred and concealing it with a smile.

I had a system in place, a surety that no one would learn the truth. Then Sydney Carrington came waltzing back into my life.

She’s the new headmaster’s daughter.
The most beautiful girl I’ve ever met.
The one person on Earth who can expose what I’ve worked so tirelessly to hide:

That I'm the fucking villain in this story.


◆ BROKEN PLAYBOY is a standalone novel set in the Windsor Academy world. This book may contain triggers for sensitive readers. Due to mature subject matter, it is recommended for readers 17+ only.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Laura Lee is the USA Today bestselling author of sexy and seductive romances, best known for the Windsor Academy and Bedding the Billionaire series.

She won her first writing contest at the ripe old age of nine, earning a trip to the state capital to showcase her manuscript. Thankfully, those early works are locked away where they belong—never to see the light of day again. These days, Laura lives in the Pacific Northwest with her wonderfully tolerant husband, two beautiful children, and a crew of ridiculously spoiled cats.

When she’s not chauffeuring kids, writing, or binge-watching HGTV, you’ll likely find her with her nose in a spicy romance and an iced matcha by her side. Always on the hunt for her next book boyfriend, Laura loves connecting with fellow romance lovers.

The book is gone, it’s finished... I feel like I’ve lost a limb. Laura Lee has once again managed to rip my heart to pieces and stitch it back together. This book was everything—and then some—that I was hoping for. Beautifully broken Bentley—ever the joker and playboy—stole my heart in the original WA trilogy and now, he is firmly rooted in my memory. Finally getting all the pieces of his story was eye opening, heartbreaking, and bittersweet. I knew he would need a strong partner—with all the drama that surrounds their friend group—and Sydney was a perfect match for our broken playboy. Sweet, sassy, independent, and strong willed; there was no doubt in my mind they would end up in a place that would heal the hurt created with their story. Yes, there were times I wanted to throw my book, reach into it and junk punch Bent (and a few other characters because... grrr, some of them were completely horrible humans) but overall, the story was simply beautiful. There is plenty of angst, some very hard subjects to work through, steam, snarky banter, along with the fun and playful interactions we have come to love from Jazz, Kingston, Bent and co. Add in Cam to that mix and I was snorting drink out my nose in places. With the way the story ended I’m now super excited to see what Mrs. Lee has in store for us in the next series. And, I really hope that some of these characters get cameos - I could NEVER not enjoy the crazy that comes with this group of friends.

    Broken Playboy is beyond fabulous. This one has all that you are looking for the heartache, the grit, the angst and heck a whole bunch of punch you in the gut, heart over flowingness going on. This is Bentley's book. If you do not know him then I suggest you read the first few books in the Windsor Academy series just to get to know him better. Bentley is lost and broken. He will make you want to slap him one minute and then just hang onto him next. He is charming and frustrating and oh such a beautiful messy soul. I love his rollercoaster ride he takes us on. Then there is the lovely Sydney that you are going to just love. She does not put up with Bentley's crap and has this calming way about her. I love how she fits in so well with the rest of the Windsor crew. You are going to love Cameron so much. She is that lightness of giggle moments you need when things get heavy. Bentley and Sydney have this past that connection that you feel so strong. The chemistry is off the charts too. I could not get enough of this one. My heart was all over the place and I would not change it for anything. You need to go one click this one and see what happens with Bentley and Sydney.

    Broken Playboy is the fourth book in the Windsor Academy series. Although it focuses on a new couple and could technically be read as a standalone, I think you would miss out too much on how truly loveable Bentley is if you skip the trilogy which focuses on the characters of Jazz and Kingston. I strongly suggest you start at the beginning of the series. Not only are the first three books very exciting, but the reader gets to know Bentley's fun and charming side more deeply. It's because so many of us fell in love with him during the trilogy about Jazz that the author was encouraged to write Bentley's story.

    In Broken Playboy the story picks up from the point at the end of book 3 when a new student (Sydney) begins to attend Windsor Academy throwing Bentley into a tailspin. Told in dual POVs the story unfolds about how Bentley and Sydney met and what happened that has both dealing with deep emotions. As much as they are drawn together are events from their pasts too much to overcome?

    Broken Playboy delivers a much anticipated story of our beloved character from the Windsor Academy series finding true love with his own spunky heroine. Bentley's character arc really does span all four books so I highly recommend reading all of this series from the beginning. It's an amazing ride!

    Bentley and Sydney were complex characters. I didn’t realize the heavy weight of this read but I really did enjoy it. I have not read the first books in the Windsor series so I was thankful for the author adding snippets of info to help with background. I can’t wait to read Cams story!

    I learned about this book through TikTok and I was excited to dive into a book that feature two people of color and was in line with the type of books that I really like.
    This author, I enjoy the way she tells the story and how it all unfolds. My only con is that I felt that the story was a bit long. I think the last two chapters maybe three could’ve been consolidated everything else I understood why It needed to roll out the way it did

    Bentley was a tortured soul I felt so bad for him but I really liked his character because you could tell underneath all his bad decisions he was a good person and Sydney was a complete badass I liked how strong she was that she let no one walk over her and although I do like a doormat heroin sometimes I really enjoyed Sydney.
    I do feel like although the book was long there were no consequences big enough for the big bad like that really irritated me considering how horrible the thing is that they did.

    Heat level is mid
    I would recommend this book, I didn’t read the whole series but it’s probably really good I won’t go back and read the other books just not that interested but it’s a cute story overall

    Oh wow, this stand alone focussing on Bentley and Sydney, was an awesome story. We finally found out what happened 'that night', and why Bent carried so much guilt.

    I love that this author has characters that all readers can relate to. Most high school romances at very eurocentric. Having MC's of various ethnic heritage is great 👍.

    Also like the issues covered, deep and real.

    Excellent author, great storyline,and interesting characters. Definitely worth reading, highly recommend...

    Great addition to the series. Sydney and Bentley's story tended to pull at the heartstrings. Bentley has been struggling to deal with his issues and bad decisions by self medicating and it isn't until Sydney discovers what he has kept hidden from her, that he hits rock bottom and has to claw his way out. Sydney is so strong and supportive that with everything out in the open, their relationship can only move forward.

    I've got to admit this story was pretty dark at times whilst that doesn't bother me it could definitely be a trigger to people out there....
    A lot of what happens in this book definitely happens out there to teens and YA, Bentley is just really struggling with everything and even when he goes beyond the point of no return I'm glad he comes out of it all on the other side! !! Sydney is a beautiful soul you just love her from the beginning 💖
    I did feel like it ended abruptly weird ending, i know it's a lead on for the next book but yeah.
