Due
persone, due tragedie, due segreti devastanti.Griff Montgomery è il plurititolato quarterback e rubacuori dei Kings. È un donnaiolo alto un metro e novantacinque, di trentatré anni.
Lauren Farraday è una bellissima arredatrice d’interni, amaramente segnata dal divorzio, la cui vita sta cadendo a pezzi.
Anche se con violenza si scontrano uno contro l’altro in tribunale per amore di un carlino – lei pensa che lui sia arrogante e presuntuoso, lui pensa che lei sia una puttana su ruote – succede qualcosa…
Ecco le premesse di questo romanzo frizzante, pieno di passione, il primo di una nuova serie che saprà stuzzicare tutte le amanti del football americano, e che rimarranno incollate fino all’ultima pagina.
Griff sembra un supereroe con i suoi capelli mogano arruffati, il suo sorriso abbagliante, gli occhi scuri e sexy e un corpo che in un paio di jeans stretti è qualcosa di indescrivibile.
Anche se Lauren ha giurato di rinunciare per sempre agli uomini, un solo sguardo verso quell’uomo le fa scendere brividi lungo la schiena, facendola sentire più sola che mai.
I suoi lunghi capelli, quegli occhi verdi brillanti e le curve mozzafiato, faranno formicolare le dita al quarterback, al solo pensiero di poterla toccare.
Come faranno ad affrontare la loro crescente attrazione? Saranno in grado di abbandonare le loro facciate, quella di Griff per camuffare il dolore per la partenza della sorella e dei nipoti, ai quali ha fatto da padre negli ultimi dieci anni… e quella di Lauren dovuta alla separazione dal marito e alla perdita di un bambino?
Per Griff l’idea di innamorarsi è una cosa nuova, talmente strana che per lui sarebbe come indossare le ballerine e un tutù. Per Lauren sarebbe come mettersi le scarpe con i tacchetti e un casco, e correre le cinquanta yarde.
Riusciranno? Ci proveranno? Rischieranno? Non vi resta che scoprirlo.
Griff
e Lauren stanno per motivi deiversi passando un periodo difficile.

tutto si è distrutto e lei ora vuole solo stare da sola,
l'unica compagnia che vuole è quella del suo cagnolino.
Ma

apparentemente molto diversi, ma che in realtà si completano.
Nella
vita bisogna sapersi rimettere in gioco, anche dopo una delusione,
l'importante è rialzarsi. Lauren e Griff riusciranno a farlo e
a fidarsi l'uno dell'altra?

for his record-breaking stats and womanizing ways, wide receiver,
Buddy Carruthers, would give it all up for one chance to win the only

he managed to corner her for a moment, would she still care?
Now a rock star known as Emerald, Emmy lived her life on the road with no time for love. In her dreams, she longed to turn back the clock and spend another night with Buddy. But lies and deceit had kept them apart for five years. Would a chance meeting wash away those years or cause old wounds to resurface? Could two lives traveling in opposite directions make room for love or would they continue to spin, out of sync, and always alone?

Harley Brennan, Running Back
Harley
Brennan and Shyla Hollings agreed to part company to follow their
careers. It was a mutual decision. The star running back had no
problem getting dates, but never the right dates. After one year
spent trying to replace the only woman he’d ever loved, he declared
defeat. Until the reality TV show, Marriage Minded, approached
him.
Harley flew to L.A. after the Super Bowl, ready to find his new soul mate. Bumping into Shyla at the airport didn’t give him a clue that she’d be behind the scenes, designing the sets for the program. And she didn’t tell him. Was Fate playing a hand, bringing them together? If so, Harley had to admit, Fate had lousy timing.
Convinced his life was heading for a touchdown, Harley’s confidence was high, until his luck ran out. Would the running back get knocked out of the game or sprint to victory?
