The Player and the Pixie

Rugby, Book 2

By: Penny Reid, L.H. Cosway

Narrated by: KC Sheridan, Jack Bellows

How can someone so smokin’ hot be so bad in bed? I mean, Sean Cassidy is absolute rubbish. RUBBISH. He is the epitome of walking, talking false advertising and I want a refund! Plus he’s an arsehole. So… what is wrong with me that I can’t stop thinking about him?

THE PIXIE

Lucy Fitzpatrick doesn’t like rugby. As the little sister of Ireland’s most infamous rugby player, Lucy can’t seem to escape the championship-sized shadow cast by her big brother, or her mother’s frequent attempts to micromanage her future. Her rainbow hair is as free-spirited as her quest for inner peace, yet overbearing expectations keep bringing her down. And when she’s down, her compulsive little problem lands her in seriously big trouble.

THE PLAYER

Sean Cassidy is a cold-hearted brute… or so he’s been told. Frequently. By everyone. His blonde locks, baby blues, and rock hard bod make ladies the world over drool with desire. As the rugby world’s second most infamous player, he should be basking in his success. But Sean has never been content settling for second place, and his frequent confrontations with Lucy’s big brother leave him cold. And when he’s cold, his compulsive little problem lands him in the lap of Lucy Fitzpatrick.

THE PLAN

Sean has a problem only Lucy can solve. Lucy has a problem only Sean can fix. The solution seems obvious: you scratch my back, and I’ll bail you out of jail. But when their business arrangement unexpectedly leaves Sean scorching hot and Lucy on the precipice of inner peace, can they convince the world—and Lucy’s big brother in particular—that this is the real deal? Either way, both the Player and the Pixie are about to teach each other some pretty monumental lessons about family, life, but most importantly, love.

The Pixie and the Player is a full-length, romantic comedy novel, can be listened to as a standalone, and is the second book in the Rugby Series.

So funny

This was a fun and funny book. Wife and I listened together on a road trip and laughed the whole way along.

Great characters

loved how the characters were developed throughout the story line. Just the right mix of humor and reality. Definitely a worthy read

❤️ Love

I absolutely loved this one! The narrators were fantastic. The story was great. It's only the second book. But it's my favorite so far. LOL and I give it 🌶🌶🌶 out of 5 on the spicy scale. So chefs kiss on the just enough without being all sex and no book. LOL 👏👏👏 bravo

Sean is a complex and compelling protagonist

The entire rugby series is great. My favorite is The Hooker and the Hermit with this book a close second. Lucy is a delight and Sean is swoon worthy.

Loved this one

I loved this even more than the first! Brother’s nemesis, a bit forbidden, HE needs lessons?! Lucy and Sean are so much fun. I loved that she wouldn’t just let him get away with things, and that he helped her stand up for what she needed. Their banter was excellent and the spice was spicy. Open door, 🌶️🌶️.5, professional athlete, teammate’s little sister.
