About this ebook

Jude Taylor swept me off my feet the moment I met him.

Literally.

 

He chased me. Tried to win me. For the first time in my life, he made me feel like taking a risk might not be so scary.

As soon as I gave in, everything was ripped away.

 

I knew I never should have trusted him.

Not with my dreams.

And most definitely ­– not with my heart.

 

Playing With Fire is a prequel novella to Playing To Win. It does not have to be read first to enjoy Playing To Win. It's an EXTRA for readers who wanted the history to Jude and Kate's relationship in Playing To Win. It can be read at any time.

    Playing With Fire - Stacey Lynn

    Chapter One

    "You never come out with me anymore. Please, Katie?"

    My roommate Lizzie steps into my room, hands pressed together in prayer. She’s one of the few people who get away with calling me Katie, and I love her to death. Most days.

    Please, pretty please? I’ll pay for your keg cup.

    As tempting as that is…I’m not falling for it.

    I raise my beer in one hand, barely looking up from my book. First semester finals are in one week and I plan on acing mine. Stay in if you want to drink with me. I’m not against fun, I’m only over frat parties and sticky bar floors.

    We’re seniors at Chicago College and I’m not exaggerating. I’ve risked losing enough heels in the last couple of years from the amount of alcohol spilled on our campus bar floors. And fraternity parties? They’re even worse. I’ve seen the aftermath of them, too.

    At twenty-one, I want to spend my last year solely focused on school. It’s time to buckle down to ensure I’ll be accepted into the graduate program. Nothing will risk throwing me off my planned track.

    Not even Lizzie, cutely pouting at the side of my desk, bottom lip plumped out and giving me sad puppy dog eyes. As I speak, a twinkle appears in her pretty blues.

    Then it’s a good thing it’s at the hockey players’ house, isn’t it? She points a finger at me before I can say anything. "And you’ve never been there, so you can’t say it’s gross and germ and STI infested. You don’t know that."

    I’m a girl of facts. The hockey players on campus catch more tail than any other
