Wagered Hearts #4
The Player
Emma Benedict needs a new start in life. After her cheating boyfriend gets his secretary pregnant, she’s ready to flee England and leave her staid, proper life behind. She’s written off romance and is determined to guard her heart from anyone who comes too close, but she didn’t count on meeting Nate Shields.
Nate loves football, winning, and women (in that order). The star quarterback of the New York Tigers, Nate’s used to women throwing themselves at him, but when he meets gorgeous, stuck up, Emma, he finds a challenge he just can’t resist.
Emma’s determined to push Nate away, but the chemistry between them cannot be denied. Just when she’s ready to risk her heart again, Nate’s playboy past catches up with him, and threatens to ruin the best thing that ever happened to him
When an accident forces Emma to rethink everything she knew, will she finally be able to leave her past behind, or will it be too late?

A passionate tale of love and heartbreak.
Emma wasn't looking for love when she came to America. she was running away from the pain of discovering her man was a cheater. So being drawn to the sexy ladies man Nate was a no-no that she was determined to resist. Nate was intriqued by this beautiful Brit and not used to being denied. Determined to get that date and win her over.....Nate suceeds beyond his dreams when they fall in love. But an ex lover and unexpected pregnancy put a glitch in their happily-ever-after.
Nate steps up to the plate in his new found fatherhood and does an amazing job. He doesn't believe that they need to marry when their relationship was over but he wants to be there for his kid. What a guy! For Emma this is all overwhelming and she is honest in saying she is not ready for this. Will time apart show them that are meant to be?
A wonderfuly written read...so romantic yet tearful too!

It was alright, so many different times you just want them to realize what they have in each other. To much pushing people away in this story for me. Once or twice but it just seemed to keep happening over and over and over...
