Three hot football players and the strong, sassy, and sometimes stubborn women who love them.
FALLING FOR THE PLAYER Emma came back to Salt Spring island to hide from her past and lick her wounds. Her solitude is threatened when her best friend’s brother comes home for his sister’s wedding and they are thrown together preparing for the wedding. The last thing she needs is to fall for the cocky, bad-boy football player she grew up next door to, no matter how sexy he is. As Clay turns up the charm, she finds herself more and more willing to give a causal relationship a try, but how can she separate her heart from her libido? Especially when he looks at her like that… There’s nothing Clayton ‘Wild Man” Thorne hates more than going home. As the starting center for the Knights football team, he has plenty of excuses to stay away from the place he was raised. But with his baby sister getting hitched, he’s got no choice but to make the trek from sunny Memphis to the cool Pacific air of Salt Spring Island. To his surprise, some things have changed in the tiny town, including his sister’s best friend Emma, who has grown from a knock-kneed brat into a stunning, no-nonsense woman. Clay is determined to have her, despite warnings from friends and family to keep his distance, and he sets his sights on doing just that. But Emma has a plan of her own, and it does not include falling for the home-town bad boy. When buried truths come to light, Clay and Emma will have to choose between trusting each other with their dark pasts or saying goodbye to the only real thing either of them has ever had.
TURNING UP THE HEAT Shelby Abbot is desperate to get off her sister’s couch after losing her job, her home, and her fiancé, so when she’s offered a job as a live-in housekeeper and personal chef to Memphis Knights running back, Austin Vega, she jumps at the chance. All she wants to do is keep her head down, do her job, and earn enough money to start her own food truck. Living in such close proximity to the sexy football player shouldn’t be a challenge, since she sees right through his game playing ways and has no interest in becoming another notch in his bed post. Austin Vega is one of the Knights’ top running backs. But he’s also a player off the field, and his bad boy, womanizer reputation is threatening his place on the team. Faced with the possibility of losing his multi-million-dollar contract, Austin assures the team manager that not only has he shelved his play boy ways, but that he’s engaged to be married--to Shelby. He just has to convince her to play along—and keep his hands off her in the meantime. Blindsided by his declaration and coaxed the by offer of enough money to start her own business, Shelby agrees to pretend to be Austin’s fiancé until the start of summer training camp. But living together and pretending to be a couple in public while ignoring their growing attraction proves to be harder than either of them anticipated. When Shelby suggests a slight change in their arrangement, things really start heating up and someone is bound to get burned.
SURRENDERING TO THE COWBOY Ronnie Vega has been attracted to Memphis Knight’s tight end Cord Walker for seven years. But as her brother Austin’s best friend, he’s always been off-limits.
But when Austin starts matchmaking, Cord makes an unexpected and very clear declaration of his feelings for her, and she finds herself alone with Cord for an extended weekend, it seems all the obstacles are gone.
But as much as Ronnie loves having Cord in her life and her bed, something is holding her back. Will her reservations ruin what could be the best thing in her life, or will she be able to surrender her heart to the sexy cowboy?
