Outplayed Kindle Edition

by Lila Rose (Author), Hot Tree Editing (Editor) Format: Kindle Edition
4.4 out of 5 stars 704 ratings
Violet Marcus’s life is settled. She has it all: a place of her own, a business where her temper has its uses, and great people who work for her.
But something is missing. The problem is, her stubbornness refuses to admit how lonely she actually is.
She lost the one man she thought she could marry, a university love, but when their careers drive them in different directions they went their separate ways.
Now he’s back.
He’s also changed.
Unsure if she wants to hug him or throat punch him, she keeps her distance. Or tries to.

Travis Stewart moves to Ballarat for one reason—to have Violet back in his life. His love has never diminished. Not through the years, the distance, or even in the underworld he finds himself a part of.
He will always love her.
Now he just has to convince Violet that his heart is hers, and his soul isn’t as black as it seems.
His mission is simple: get Violet to understand they have a future together before getting kneed in the balls. Easy, especially as he refuses to be outplayed.

    This is definitely a novella I have been waiting for, I loved every moment from begining to end. This story had its sweet moments but it also had its kickin bootie moments and there was definetly some Alphaness through out this story. I loved seeing past charecters from Lila's MC Books. I hope you enjoy this book as much as I have. Happy Reading ♡

    TBH I haven’t read the Hawks MC books yet- I’m waiting for my paperbacks, but the snippets I got made me want to read them more.
    Violet sounds like such a feisty, strong character. I’ve loved her in the few other books that I have read but I don’t remember meeting Travis. He sounds like he’s had a hard life and would do anything legal or illegal if he felt it was right. Whereas, Violet is about keeping everything legal.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Another great novella
    Reviewed in Australia on 22 May 2019
    Finally, finally we get Travis and Violet’s story! Ah so good too, this novella wraps everything up, explains things well and leaves you feeling fantastic.

    Travis is quite a complex character and although not one I immediately loved before it was because I didn’t know him but I was intrigued by him. Now I know him better, 😂 I can honestly say he is a man of integrity yet still one who stuffs up- sorry guys but that’s men for you! 😉

    Violet is a character who has always been intriguing as well, so it’s no wonder they are a great match! She has a high moral code and stands by it no matter who you are, family, friends or strangers...something I admire her for as it’s not often people really stand strong for their convictions when push comes to shove.These two characters show growth and maturity but also a vulnerability that is enduring.

    Many of the appropriate secondary characters that are in the series make appearance and they are always wonderful too. I do think Izzy steals the show a bit though, she is adorable!

    Another great addition to this fabulous series by this talented author.

    2.0 out of 5 stars A bit so so
    Reviewed in Australia on 16 October 2019

    Let me say firstly, I love this series and for the most part, the writing. This book however, could have been so much more, but given its length, it was to short to really flesh out the characters, and expand on their lives with any detail, and as a consequence the story did not flow as smoothly as some others. Outplayed was short, and areas that could have been significant were glossed over - was there a word count to write to?? Ultimately the problems were resolved easily and quickly, with the main characters in bed together quite soon after such a long separation. I felt I was reading snippets of information, and I wanted an elaborate tale. More could have been made out of Travis’s business, but it seems being a pimp is not worth a conversation or confrontation between the H and h. Wasn’t that a moral dilemma for Violet? She loved him, but he earned his money through prostitutes, and she works well within the law! He has a daughter, come on people! Then, after a bad date, in half a page, he offloads the flesh peddling and all is well. The obligatory mad bad ex causing problems was great, but she too was dealt with without issue or fuss. Perhaps flashbacks to the beginning and end of their relationship back in college would have given the book angst, or at least added depth to the story. I’m sorry, but this one just didn’t do it for me.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Vi and Travis finally have their story!!!!
    Reviewed in the United States on 21 May 2019

    It's finally time for Vi and Travis' story! We met both of them in Talon and Zara's story, and even though they were peripheral characters, they both played a huge part in that story. We found out just enough about them, and their past, to whet my curiosity! And now I know!

    Vi is a private investigator, and the sister of Talon. Years ago, they had a falling out, over his involvement in the Hawks MC, which wasn't exactly legit at the time. Because both are stubborn, the rift between them dragged on for years, leaving Vi pretty much on her own. She built her business, and formed her own sort of family with the guys she employed in her agency. She knew they had her back, but there was still something missing, something she had in the past, that left a hole in her life.

    Travis is an enigma. Not much is said about him, or his past in Talon and Zara's story. But so much is revealed in Outplayed, that I had several "Aha!" moments, and things started to make more sense about Travis, and his actions. I can only say, he has strong feelings for Vi, and is determined to make a place for himself in her life!

    This book can totally be read on its own, as it's a complete story. However, the events take place concurrently with those from Holding Out, giving you another viewpoint of those events. The story, to me, seems so much richer, and fuller if you have already immersed yourself in the world of the Hawks MC. So much is explained, and I'm so glad Vi and Travis found their HEA! (and I totally cried a tear for Richard during his scene!)

    Cuteness comes in the form of Izzy, a little girl who helps her dad, Travis, reel in the love of his life, even if she doesn't know it. Violet could out-stubborn a mule, and she's not afraid to speak her mind, especially when it comes to Travis. Once upon a time, they were a couple in university until their goals and life took them in different directions. Now, Travis is back with his little girl and has decided he wants a second chance at forever with Violet. But he's not Mr. Smooth anymore and becomes his own worst enemy. Plus, his business isn't something the sexy private investigator can live with. How far is he willing to go for his happy ever after with the only woman he has ever loved?
