A Word from the Author
Many may think that Player is a very stereotypical novel about a gorgeous, college football player and the awkward transfer student. However, as a reader I’ve never minded stereotypical as long as it was written well and I often enjoy stories like Player and as a writer it’s a project I had been thinking about undertaking for a long time.
