The last time he’d laid eyes on Jordan was the summer after high school, when they were both working as junior coaches at football camp. It was the summer Eric had embraced his inner horndog, getting it on with two older local guys after practice. It wasn’t until the summer was over, however, that he’d learned that one of those same studs had blown Jordan behind the movie theater. Eric had spent a solid month afterward cursing his gaydar for failing him. He had wanted to get his hands all over Jordan’s tight body for years—ever since that summer after high school. Jordan had always been a stunning specimen, and he’d only gotten better with age. Hell, why fuck around? Jordan Barr was the hottest man Eric had ever seen in the flesh. If Jordan only knew how many times Eric had taken his dick in his hand and pictured Jordan. Pictured taking him, touching him, sliding his fist up and down Jordan’s thick cock until the other man came screaming his name. Eric wanted to feel Jordan fucking his hand until he lost control, then have Jordan return the favor, pumping Eric’s dick until he couldn’t think…well, straight. Eric smirked. Straight clearly wasn’t an issue. He imagined Jordan’s jaw would hit the floor if he knew he’d starred in so many of Eric’s fantasies he practically headlined the marquis. ’Course, if Jordan’s mouth were wide open, Eric knew exactly what he’d like to do with it—slide inside and get those full, sexy lips wrapped tight around his cock. Fucking hell. Get it together, Higgins. Eric smiled as he shook Jordan’s hand, trying to play it cool, as if he hadn’t whacked off to imaginary Jordan a few hundred times. “We actually grew up together, but it’s been a long time.” “It has.” Jordan nodded, his light blue eyes glittering with that same sharp intelligence Eric remembered. “I always respected your game, man.” And I yours. Boy had he. As he and Jordan shook hands, electricity shot between them, another lightning strike, and this time, the thunder-down-under decided to join the storm. Careful, Eric. You’re going on live TV in just a few minutes with this guy. You can’t have an erection the size of a goal post when you sit down on the couch. Eric cleared his throat. “I was a fan of yours, too. Still am,” he said with a raised brow and a half-smile. Fan of your ass. Fan of your mouth. Fan of your cock—or I’m sure I will be once I get my lips around it. Jesus Christ. His dirty mind was working overtime this afternoon. “Thanks.” Jordan pulled his hand away a little too quickly. “Nice weather today, huh? I guess Tampa needed a long shower to cool off.” Eric laughed easily, even as he wondered if that was Jordan’s way of calling him out. Did Jordan know that Eric had spied on him in the shower one afternoon when they’d both stayed late at camp? Eric had been lucky enough to catch a glimpse of Jordan alone after practice—his stunning body glowing in a shaft of sunlight streaming through the high, dusty windows of the locker room. Every tight, toned, tanned, wet inch—including the increasingly erect inches between his legs—had been on stunning display, making Eric’s body respond with an epic woody of his own. The sight had taken his breath away and fed his fantasies for years. “Well, I enjoy a good shower,” Eric said wryly, unable to resist testing his theory. “Don’t you?” A flush crept up Jordan’s strong neck. “Yeah. Sure. Showers are good.” Well, well, well…
~Michelle's (MMS) 4 Star Review of Play Hard~
Wow! If your looking for a hot m/m book look no further. Eric and Jordan aim to please.
Eric and Jordan grew up in the same small town, only on different sides of the tracks. One from money, the other from a struggling family just trying to get by. When Eric notices Jordan at football camp the summer after they graduate from high school, he couldn't get Jordan out of his mind. Years later their paths cross again. They are both playing professional football but for different teams, but that doesn't stop the heat and chemistry these two have for each other. Can they give in and give each other a chance? They both have so much to lose if it were to get out.
What a great book! I absolutely loved it, the only reason that I have it 4 stars instead of five was because it does end with a cliffhanger and it was kinda short. I wasn't ready for it to end yet! But beside that it's a really great book, well written, sexy and left you thinking what's going to happen next.
