Heartless Player: Westfall U #1
by R.C. Stephens is now live!

He might be a heartless player, but that won't stop me from playing his game.

Rebel

Notorious heartbreaker and handsome-as-sin hockey captain, Wolfe Judd is the golden boy on campus. He could have any girl he wants... and he wants me.

He sees beyond my surface. The way his stormy blue eyes watch me... I feel beautiful for the first time since my accident. Little by little, he tears down my walls, exposing a passion that leaves me breathless and a vulnerability that could leave me shattered.

But all my scars aren't on the outside, and the ones inside whisper that a guy like him will never fall for a damaged girl like me. Turns out Wolfe is just as broken as I am. He might be a heartless player, but that won't stop me from playing his game.

Wolfe

Rebel thinks she's invisible, but I see her... even when she doesn't want me to. Even when I wish I could get her out of my mind, because falling for her is a complication I can't afford.

My reputation proceeds me, but Rebel is a game changer. And if I get too close, I'm afraid she'll see right through me. Behind the person who my family and teammates expect me to be, to the person who's been keeping secrets.

With every scorching touch, every unapologetic kiss, the rules change, and the truth unravels around us. If only we could go on living this lie, then I wouldn't risk losing the only girl I've ever loved.

I was completely caught up in this story!

”You know how it is. You’re Westfall’s golden boy, and I’m the ghost no one sees.”

Rebel keeps to herself. She’s no longer the outgoing girl she once was back in high school, after the traumatic events that took place when she was seventeen. Now, at college, she keeps her head down and tries to remain unnoticed. However, when the popular jock, Wolfe Judd, appears to be everywhere she is and offering her lifts in his car, it’s pretty hard to remain invisible. Contrary to his cold, heartless reputation, he shows her a side to himself rarely seen by others, and she can’t help but be dazzled by him.

”Truth is, I want more with her. More Rebel, more of her sweet smile, more of her flushed cheeks.”

Wolfe may be a god on campus but he hides his true self from all but his closest friend. Rebel piques his interest for a reason but that reason becomes less important as he gets to know her. She’s not his type – the one-and-done type – but there’s no denying that he’s attracted to her. No matter how much she tries to keep him at arm’s length and in the friend zone, he can see that the attraction is mutual. Unfortunately, she doesn’t trust easily, and what will happen when all his truths come to light?

”We may come from different worlds…But when we’re together, the world makes sense.”

I absolutely enjoyed this story. Rebel and Wolfe seemed like opposites but both were pretty broken people and had been let down by those that should have supported them. Rebel is pretty sassy, strong and direct under her meek exterior, and I loved seeing how Wolfe’s care and attention brought her out of herself. In turn, I loved that Wolfe felt like he could tell her anything and confide in her about the things that really mattered to him. I loved how they gradually fell into a more intimate relationship – Wolfe was sweet and patient with her, as well as passionate. I adored their chemistry and how they took the time to know what the other liked. Both of them had a journey in this story as they came to terms with things that happened in their pasts, and how they changed each other’s lives for the better. Can’t wait to read the next book!
