Just a Football Star

I've sworn off athletes. Clearly, the universe heard "challenge accepted."

After losing my job-and the boyfriend who came with it-I escape to a mountain resort with three rules: no football players, no drama, and lots of chocolate.

Surprise: the first man I meet is retired pro, Alec Tate. Stubborn, competitive, and nursing a bad knee, he's everything I'm supposed to avoid…and the one I can't stop wanting to help.

When circumstances force us to share a cabin, things get complicated. Between caring for a surprise puppy and late-night confessions, I start to see past the armor he hides behind-and realize I'm the one in danger.

Because if I fall for him, it'll be game over-for my heart and all my carefully crafted plans.

Just a Football Star is a sweet, small-town, closed-door romantic comedy with all the sizzle and none of the spice! It lightly touches on the loss of a loved one and addiction in a past relationship, but also features an adorable puppy named Jerry, a "just one bed" situation, and the meddlesome Aunt Stella. Plus, mysteries surrounding the Tate brothers begin to unravel.
