Playing Hard to Get by Monica Murphy is now live!
Knox Maguire is the king of our college campus.
Star offensive tight end on the football team.
He is the complete opposite of me in every way.
I’m quiet. He’s loud.
I’m shy. He’s definitely not.
Everyone loves him. No one knows me.
Fresh out of a breakup, I don’t really trust him, and why should I? Knox is the ultimate player. When I become his English tutor, I tell myself we need to keep things between us strictly business. Watching my mother deal with my ex-athlete father long, long ago taught me to stay far away from that type of man.
Yet Knox is impossible to resist. Next thing I know, we’re getting hot and heavy in the library—and that was never part of the plan. When Knox admits he can’t stop thinking about me, I have a realization.
I can’t stop thinking about him either.
Instead of keeping my distance, I pull him in closer. Until somehow, we’re spending all of our time together and I find myself falling for Knox. Hard.
Will this actually work between us? Or am I getting played?

Playing Hard to Get is the first book in Monica’s next series, The Players.
This is a spin-off from her other series but you need no prior knowledge to start this series. Knox Maguire is the so of Owen (Four Years Later) and seems to be following in his dad’s footsteps.
Knox is in his final year of college and not only does he need to stay at the top of his game with football, this is also his toughest year in college with his class-load. So he chooses to focus less on the player lifestyle, choosing to be celibate in hopes it’ll help him focus on his courses. Knox knows that he has his struggles with schooling and finally comes to realization that he is going to need a tutor so he doesn’t fail.
Joanna Sutton is one of the few tutors that works with students who have learning disabilities and excels at helping them overcome their obstacles. Joanna has recently come off of a long-term, long-distance relationship and has no interest in any sort of relationship right now.
I absolutely adored how Joanna and Knox’s whole relationship came to me. It is a slow-burn but so worth it once they decided to take the leap. The chemistry is off the charts with these two and it never slows down once they’re together.
Monica wrote a very sweet, sugary story that has zero drama in it. There isn’t a lot of the typical college drama and I love that she has these characters stay true to themselves and not doing something out of character just to create unnecessary drama. One thing I wanted more of was the family dynamic on Joanna’s side but it does not take away from the overall story.
A great start to a new series!!
