"The Play – Playing with Fire" is the third book in the "Briar University" series by SPIEGEL bestselling author Elle Kennedy, following "The Chase – Opposites Attract" and "The Risk – Who Dares, Wins"!

After a disastrous last season, Hunter Davenport, the new captain of the Briar hockey team, makes a decision: this year, his focus is solely on hockey. No more losses, no distractions, and certainly no women. However, his classmate Demi Davis puts his good intentions to the test. As they spend a lot of time together for a joint university project and get to know each other better, Hunter finds it increasingly difficult to resist Demi. And although they only want to be friends, Demi enjoys challenging him more and more.

Hockey players, passion, and heartbeats – with the "Briar University" series, a spin-off of the popular "Off-Campus" series, Elle Kennedy creates a spark in the air! Elle Kennedy grew up in a suburb of Toronto and studied English Literature at York University. Her "Off Campus" series was on the international bestseller lists for weeks and has been translated into numerous languages. Elle Kennedy is also one half of the SPIEGEL bestselling author duo Erin Watt, which has achieved great success with the "Paper" series.
