For her, he’ll walk the straight and narrow. For
him, she’ll walk on the wild side.
Blurb:
With the ink barely dry on her divorce papers, and
a three-year old daughter to provide for, Tory Choate is more than grateful to
her old friend from college, for giving her a chance to dust off her life coaching
skills with the Miami Thunder players. As if putting Dwayne Jackson on any path
that doesn’t lead to prison isn’t enough of a challenge, resisting her
unexpected attraction to the sexy wide receiver tests her control. Having tried
the safe path once and been burned, a walk on the wild side might be just what
she needs to get her back on track. But is she daring enough to take the first
step?
One of the best wide receivers in football, Dwayne
Jackson has burned every bridge he’s crossed in the NFL. Picked up by the Miami
Thunder, it’s either get his life on track or kiss his career goodbye. He’d rather
kiss the sexy life coach assigned to him, but Alex Dare’s signals are
clear—keep his hands off the ultra-conservative Victoria “Tory” Choate—or else.
No woman has ever come close to luring Dwayne across the relationship bridge,
but then, none of those women were Victoria Choate.
Excerpt:
Dwayne came to
a stop in the doorway of his room. Victoria stood halfway between him and his
king-sized bed, her back to him. For once, every penny he’d spent on the
housekeeping service seemed worth it. The bed was made, and not a thing was out
of place. Not even Victoria. She looked like she fucking belonged. He shook his
head to dislodge the ridiculous thought, but it refused to go away. Wishful
thinking, man.
“I like seeing
you in my space.”
She turned at
the sound of his voice, and every thought but one vanished. Mine.
“Take me to
bed, Dwayne.”
She wasn’t
asking, she was demanding, and fuck if that didn’t turn him on even more. He
had every intention of bedding her, but once he had her there, he wasn’t sure
he could let her go. “I hope you have nowhere else to be today, because all the
things I plan to do to you…they take time. Lots and lots of time.”
