Synopsis:
Players gotta play.
Hate is like a poison. It contaminates everything.
So does doubt.
Even
though I deny what I overheard, even though I insist it isn’t true, the
seed of doubt has been planted. I can’t help but be tormented with the
endless what-if’s that have taken over our lives.
Romeo and I were
happy in love. The future stretched before us brighter than any star in
the darkest sky. Now everything is broken. Literally broken. Romeo’s
entire career is at stake, my entire future is threatened… and my past?
It’s coming back to haunt me.
To haunt us.
Romeo
says we’re in this together and right now the only sure thing is us.
But how far can a love so new be pushed? The lengths we will have to go
to save each other puts everything at risk.
Romeo is a #player but how much of the game can one person play?

Excerpt
of #Player
by
Cambria Hebert
The azure shade of
his eyes caressed me to my soul. I swear he looked at me like no one else ever
could. It was like there was nothing else in existence except me. It was like
he wasn’t just looking at me, but in
me, and I was the most precious thing he’d ever seen.
I got caught up in
that gaze. I got caught up in him. My chest felt like it caved in, but not in a
disaster sort of way. Like it was sealing in everything he was saying even
though no words ever left his tongue.
“How do you do
it?” I whispered. My tongue felt thick against the roof of my mouth.
“Do what?” he
asked. That look never once left his eyes. If anything, it swept me in tighter.
“How do you look
at me like… like I’m everything?”
He made a low sound
in the deepest part of his throat. Sort of like a growl, sort of like an
agreement. “Because you are.”
“Romeo.” I sighed.
“Rimmel,” he
replied. “Don’t forget.”
I started to pull
back from the moment, but his fingers tightened on my hip. I looked back up.
“Don’t forget this
moment. Don’t forget the absolute truth in the way you feel right now. I love
you and I’m not going to stop.”
Emotion welled up
in my throat and tears rushed to the backs of my eyes. His words were
beautiful, but it was the reason he said them that had me so choked up.
This wasn’t the
end.
Beyond this
moment, this quiet, whole moment with him, were many more. Many more that
weren’t going to be like this one.
We were going to
have to keep fighting to keep what was ours.
“I’m not going to
stop either,” I whispered.
A smile stretched
over his face and lit up his eyes. I leaned closer and sealed my vow with my
lips. The rush of heat I always felt when we kissed tingled my toes and they
curled into the blankets. I opened my mouth so his tongue could venture inside,
and I sighed, so wanting to feel him.
But the moment was
cut short.
The door opened
and a man with graying hair, a white coat, and a file in his hand stepped in.
“Mr. Anderson,” he
said, looking straight at Romeo. It was like he didn’t even notice the intimate
bubble Romeo and I occupied. “I have your X-ray results.”
The bubble burst
abruptly and reality rushed back in.
Romeo’s dad came
in the room, his face concerned as Valerie hovered just outside the doorway
staring into the room like it was some forbidden fruit.
I scrambled up to
sit on the mattress, ignoring the protests of my sore body. Romeo did the same,
moving a little more gingerly.
In the space
between us on the mattress, our fingers intertwined.
“How bad is it?”
Romeo asked. For once I heard fear in his tone.
I glanced at him.
He glanced at me.
Our moment was
over.
The fight started
now.
