ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date October 26, 2021.

It all started with a bet.
When my young son inherited half of his great grandfather’s historic inn, I decided to move us both to the place where I grew up.
Notice I said half of the Inn. The other half now belonged to Levi Miller, the famous quarterback who had other ideas about what we should do with the property.
We won’t mention that I accidentally injured him during our first meeting, causing him to get eight stitches.
You could say we got off on the wrong foot.
We bickered a lot as we both moved into the property while we figured things out.
He wanted to unload the rundown place which, admittedly, needed a lot of work.
I wanted to restore The Palm Inn to its original beauty and re-open it as a bed and breakfast.
We couldn’t agree on anything. So Levi made me a proposal. One he thought I would surely lose. If I could sell out the place by the time he had to leave for training at the end of summer, he would back off and let me run it.
But in the weeks that followed, we got more than we bargained for while we were living under the same roof.
Levi and I got closer, and before I knew it, my nightly fantasies about the brawny Adonis became a reality. Not to mention, he was so great with my son.
We were in over our heads in more ways than one.
Because not only was he the last man on Earth I should be falling for because of our deal, but Levi was also my ex’s older brother.
And now the inn was the least of my problems.

REVIEW: WELL PLAYED is a stand alone, contemporary,adult, erotic story line co-authored by Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward focusing on single mother Presley, and professional football player Levi Miller.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Presley and Levi) WELL PLAYED focuses on the building romance and relationship between single mother Presley, and professional football player Levi Miller. With the death of his beloved grandfather, quarterback Levi Miller, and with his brother’s seven year old son Alex, inherited the family own Palm Inn but as Alex was too young to assume any responsibility, the onus fell on his mother, Presley, Levi’s brother’s ex, and the mother of his son. Hoping to turn the Palm Inn into a Bed and Breakfast, Presley begins working on reparations only to discover that Levi is hoping to sell the building, and move on with his life. Desperate to make a go of the B&B, Presley and Levi come to an agreement whereby at the end of the summer, either Presley or Levi will have gotten their way. What ensues is the building ‘forbidden’ romance and relationship between Presley and Levi, as our couple work together to set up the Inn, just in time for Levi’s brother Tanner to return home.

Levi Miller never expected to fall for his brother’s ex but working side by side pulled our couple together. Without his brother in the picture, Levi found himself both father and uncle to a young boy whose father was rarely on his radar. Presley knew to fall for Levi would mean a bigger problem for the Miller family including Levi’s mother Shelby who never knew the truth behind what happened, and was hoping for Presley and Tanner to once again, fall in love.

The relationship between Levi and Presley is a forbidden romance, a brother’s ex-girlfriend, friends to lovers arrangement that quickly merges into a triangle of love. Both Tanner and Levi are vying for Presley’s attention, and in this, our heroine struggles with her ex’s unwanted attention but refuses to reveal the truth, though the time has come. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and intense but I dislike the use of a certain four-letter work, although only used once, more for shock value than anything else.

We are introduced to Levi’s brother and Presley’s ex Tanner, as well as their mother Shelby; Tanner and Presley’s son Alex, Alex’s coach Jeremy Brickson, Presley’s best friend Harper, and Palm Inn permanent resident Fern.

WELL PLAYED is an emotional story of secrets and heart break, family and relationships, love and understanding. The premise is essentially an edgy and awkward love triangle ; the romance is intimate and seductive; the characters are energetic, lost, struggling and tragic.
