Maven Wood is ready for a fresh start. After an injury on the soccer field leads to her dropping out of college, she needs a change.

When her godfather–the coach of the hottest team in the NFL–tells her about an open position as a sports photographer, she jumps at the chance to apply. The pay is good, but it doesn’t cover her rent after her roommate moves out. Out of ideas, she’s not sure how she’s going to afford to make ends meet… until the cute kicker comes to her rescue.

Dallas Lansfield never thought he’d be a single dad, but he’s embracing the role as best as he can. With a four-year-old that has too much energy and not enough time on his hands, he needs help.

Desperately.

So when he hears that his coach’s goddaughter is looking for a way to make more money, he practically begs her to come be his nanny.

Maven and Dallas aren’t allowed to fall for each other. Getting involved with a player on the team is off-limits and a quick way to get fired. But what starts as a professional relationship turns into something deeper.

In front of people, they’re colleagues. Behind the cameras, though, their attraction only grows. Late night talks turn into sharing a bed, and soon, Dallas would rather give up his career than give up the feelings he has for Maven.

He can’t have her. So why does he want her so damn bad?

This book was TOO. GOOD. Now, I’m sure you’re wondering, ‘Hilarye, is that even possible?’ Oh yes, my friend, it is. This book is meeting your soulmate and feeling seen for the first time good. It’s slipping into a pair of jeans that makes your ass look fantastic and taking a sip of a perfectly made iced coffee good. It’s drinking wine, eating cheese, and laughing until you cry with your best friend good. And it’s even (wait for it) snuggling a pile of kittens good. Yup, kittens—this book is THAT good.  The story begins with Patrick and Johanna, childhood best friends who […]
