SYNOPSIS
PLEASURE HAS NEVER BEEN SO DECADENT . . .
Paige Moore has a fulfilling business designing couture corsets for her high profile clientele, but her love life is sorely lacking. Being burned in the worst way possible by Sawyer Burrows has left her guarded and wary when it comes to men and their motives. When her best friend presents her with an invitation to The Players Club, she embraces the chance to enjoy a hot night with a stranger, and finally put her past heartbreak, and Sawyer, behind her.
Sawyer knows he devastated Paige with his careless actions a year and a half ago, and he's lived every day since with those regrets. Now, seeing Paige at The Players Club, he knows this is his chance to make amends and prove that there is still something between them worth pursuing. If sensual pleasure is what Paige is looking for, then he intends to be the man to spend the night seducing every part of her.
Paige's surrender is Sawyer's ultimate goal, but once her desires are sated, will she give them the second chance they deserve?

REVIEW: PLAYING WITH PLEASURE BY ERIKA WILDE
Playing with Pleasure (The Players Club Book 2) by Erika Wilde
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Playing with Pleasure was a new experience for me. I don't normally read Erika Wilde, but have read Janelle Denison. This read was a pleasant surprise for me. Ms. Wilde can bring the heat. Some areas were so steamy that I could feel the burn. Yet others were so sweet and emotional that I was mesmerized. Having been hurt before Paige lost confidence but Sawyer was determined to give it back to her. Very sexy story full of unexpected emotion. Received an ARC for an honest review.

Excerpt
The bell on the door to Couture Corsets tinkled, announcing that a customer had just
walked into Paige Moore’s small boutique in Old Town San Diego, where she
designed and sold custom-made corsets.
“It’s just me,” she heard her good friend Raina Beck call out.
Knowing Raina would just head to the back area of the shop where Paige did all her
designing and creations, she continued hand sewing small seed pearls to an exquisite
white satin corset she was making for a client’s wedding night.
A moment later, Raina walked past the curtain of glittering crystals hanging in the
doorway that separated the retail floor from the workroom. “Wow, that looks stunning,
” she said of the one-of-a-kind bridal corset, her voice laced with awe.
Paige glanced over her shoulder and grinned. “Thanks. Once I add the
crystal and lace embellishments along the bodice, this bride is going to knock
her groom’s pants off when he sees her in this corset.”
Raina laughed. “Not a bad way to start off a marriage.”
“What? By getting lucky?” Paige asked humorously as she set her needle and
thread down on the nearby worktable that dominated the area.
“And being totally turned on by your new wife.”
“Speaking of getting turned on,” Paige said with a smirk as she eyed her cheerful
friend. “You’re glowing and smiling all the time, so things with Logan must be good,
yes?”
“Really good,” Raina admitted, her face flushing with happiness. “And I do have to
say, it’s nice having sex on a regular basis,” she teased.
Paige sent her a mock glare. “Yeah, I wouldn’t know, so stop bragging,” she grumbled,
even though she was genuinely thrilled that Raina had found a man who absolutely
adored her. “What brings you by?”
“I have something for you,” Raina said and handed her an envelope with the word
Welcome embossed in black across the front.
Paige’s eyes widened as she looked at the envelope. “Oh my God, is this an invitation
to your wedding? I can’t believe you didn’t tell me…” Her words and excitement trailed
off as she pulled out the card inside and read the message granting her a night at
The Players Club, an exclusive, members-only sex club.
“Oh, wow,” she breathed in surprise and glanced back at Raina.
“I thought—”
“If I was getting married, you’d know about it before I sent out invitations
because you’d be my maid of honor,” Raina interrupted with a laugh. “Besides,
I’m not even engaged yet. This invitation is for you,” Raina went on with a grin.
“The Players Club is a place where you can get down and dirty and freaky with
a stranger, indulge in a fantasy, or try a particular kink that has piqued your interest.”
“I have to say, that sounds very tempting.”
Oh, yes, Paige was definitely intrigued. It had been a year and a half since she’d
been with a man. A year and a half since the morning Sawyer Burrows had
shattered her heart with his betrayal. And the thought of indulging in a night of
hot sex with an anonymous guy was incredibly appealing. She needed to do
something to finally shake Sawyer from her mind and thoughts and let the
painful past go so she could move on with her life.
Easier said than done, but an evening at The Players Club was a good start to
putting an end to her dry spell.
“There is one thing you need to know.” Raina suddenly looked uncertain. “Logan
told me that Sawyer is a member of The Players Club. Which, in my opinion,
could work to your advantage if he’s there the night you decide to go.”
Paige frowned, not sure how she felt about running into a man she swore she
hated yet who still had the ability to affect her on a physical level. Yeah, that part
drove her absolutely crazy, but she was curious what Raina meant. “How so?”
“If he’s there, think of it as a bit of revenge.” Raina’s eyes danced with mischief. “Flirt
with other guys and enjoy yourself. Show Sawyer exactly what he’s been missing and
what is no longer his. Men are such jealous, possessive creatures, and it’ll drive him
nuts to see you with another man.”
The corner of Paige’s mouth curled into a smile as she thought about her friend’s
suggestion. It had been too long since she’d felt desired and sexy. Combine the
bonus of possibly showing Sawyer that she was over him by letting him see her
enjoy another man’s attention, and it really was a win-win situation.
Her decision made, she met Raina’s gaze and lifted her chin in determination.
“I’m totally down for that.”
About Erika Wilde
Erika Wilde (aka Janelle Denison) is the USA Today bestselling author of over 50
contemporary romances for multiple print publishers.
So, why the new pen name?
As Janelle Denison I’ve always written sexy books, but lately my writing has taken
on more erotic elements that I wanted to keep separate for readers because not
everyone likes their reading material on the spicier, kinkier side of romance.
However, please be assured that even as Erika Wilde, you will still get an
emotionally layered story with characters you’ll care about and fall in love with.
That is always my goal, whether I’m writing straight contemporary romances,
or more erotically charged stories.
Currently, I’m working on The Marriage Diaries and making sure that Dean and Jillian
enjoy exploring the more erotic side to their marriage. The series will be on-going, with no foreseeable ending as of right now, for as long as readers want to be
voyeurs to Dean and Jillian’s sizzling new relationship.
I’m also planning a spin-off series in the future, featuring the hot military men that work security for Dean at Noble and Associates.
