Playing for Keeps (Hot Jocks, #1)

by Kendall Ryan

I’m officially fucked. Up the ass, as Asher would say. Without lube, Teddy would probably add.

Mom leans back, taking a sip of her wine as she appraises me, then Elise. “Honestly, I think I have you to thank, sweetie. My son has certainly calmed down. I’m not sure if you’re aware—but he went through a bit of a slutty stage.” I blink in slo-mo. Did my mother just call me a slut? Elise coughs into her napkin in an attempt to hide another laugh. “Um … You’re welcome?” They share a laugh—at my expense mind you—and then two sets of eyes swing my way. Elise’s gaze softens as she directs her attention back toward my mom. “Thank you for raising a good man with a good heart. Underneath all that slutty behavior, he really is a keeper,” she adds. I groan. “Come on, I’m right fucking here.”
