Publisher's summary

My ex-fiancé is back, waving around my expensive ring, sitting in stands, and being a real pain in the ass. My lady-friend is pretty cool about the whole thing until the ex sets me up for a photo shoot, starring yours truly and her naked in my hotel room. That's when I figure enough is enough. Sure, we've been friends since we were kids but that doesn't give her the right to ruin the best thing that's ever happened to me. And when the love-of-my-life disappears? That's just over-the top.

This is book two in the Busted Play series. Absolutely no cheating, despite what the ex wants, and HEA guaranteed.

Love with a dangerous element!

This is a cute quick story of CJ and Mel. I enjoyed them and their story. It’s full of action, sexy times and danger. I enjoyed it and look forward to more.

I did listen to this on audio. Jonathan Winters did a nice job. His accents are wonderful to listen to. Finn?? oMG! Irish!

Love it!

I was given this free review copy audio-book at my request and have voluntarily left this review. Great 2nd book in the Players series. CJ and Mel have to deal with CJ's ex Mary Jane, she will do anything to get CJ back, how far will she go? I loved this 2nd book as much as the 1st. Stella Marie Alden does a great job with the characters and story. Narrator Jonathan Waters does a great job with the characters, voices and the story! On to the third book!

Keep it coming!

I am loving this set of novellas, each giving us just enough of CJ and Mel to keep us coming back for more. This one picks up a little after the first novella ends, and the two are together. But when CJ's ex comes out to play, things get a little dicey! Will the paparazzi kill their relationship? Can CJ be trusted when Mary Jane is around? And what is she up to? It's fast paced, passionate and exciting listen. These characters are larger than life, and make the listen so much fun, I just can't get enough. Can't wait to hear the next one.

Jonathan Waters continues his narration of this series and I am loving his voice. He puts the right amounts of emotion into each character and plays each so well. He really brings it alive and I look forward to more from him.

As this continuing story of C.J. And Mel moves on. An old friend or ex girlfriend just cannot let go. So more trouble ensues. I am really enjoy this series.

Exciting

C. J. finds himself having to deal with a crazy woman that he used to be engaged too.
Jonathan Waters is a very talented narrator. He can do the female characters with a sexy voice. He dragged me into the story with every emotions.

The magic of CJ and Melanie continues

Counter Play by Stella Marie Alden takes things up a notch. There's not only their chemistry at play (fans self) but the drama is also increased with an added antagonist. As if they don't have enough to deal with already.
Once again, Jonathan Waters does an exceptional job with CJ and Melanie (as well as all the other characters) bringing this author's work to life. A really enjoyable listen of a really story!

I loved it!!

Previously read the book shortly after release. The audio version made it that much better! I fell in love with Melanie and CJ all over again through the great work of the narrator. He put great emotion into the story and brought the characters to life. It was really easy to follow and I would recommend it to others!!
