The first time I met Benson LaCroix, he sat in a bar wearing “cocky player” like a cheap cologne. The second time, he stood in a locker room in nothing but a jockstrap and a scowl. Apparently, the Miami Storm’s star pitcher isn’t too thrilled his new boss is the woman who turned him down.

I’m probably not the first runaway bride to get discovered hiding in the back of a stranger’s pickup truck. And Maverick should probably dump me on the side of the road and be on his way. Instead, he agrees to give me a ride across the country. I quickly learn that Maverick isn’t just a sexy football star. He’s also bossy as hell with a surprising sweet side.

I thought Troy Tipton was just a nice guy with a gorgeous smile. Until I learned he was a fan-favorite NFL star quarterback. The same one gracing magazine covers with his irresistible dimples. The same one I mock on my show. When we start dating, the explosive chemistry we share is impossible to ignore. But can we keep our opposing careers from ruining what we have before we even begin?

No playing with the players! For Amanda Wright - new reporter on the pro baseball block - this rule is harder to keep than she had thought. Especially with the team's star pitcher, gorgeous Brad Rogers, sending signals her libido can't possibly miss. How can she indulge her craving for Brad and still prove she can play with the big-league journalists? From their first illicit kiss, their private ball games lead to delicious pleasure. Then she discovers Brad is hiding a big secret that could make her career - or blow his.

She has a head for business and a body for sin. He is a coach who knows how to use his equipment. Neither is looking for love. Should be easy, right? Wrong. This might be the most important game Kendall Wales and Hunter Owens have ever played where everything is on the line. With one wrong play, they could lose it all. Hopefully, the game clock doesn’t reach zero before it’s too late.

Homer Carnegie. Admit it - you know my name. Your kid's got my e-trading card. Your husband sits up straighter when I stroll onto the TV screen. He knows I'm going to crack the bat and save the day. It's not my fault women line up at the door. Believe me, everybody wins. At least they did - until the video. The only folks who didn't watch with eager eyes? Red Sox management. They want me benched, or worse, shipped off to rehab. It's a long story, what happens next. How I end up on a boat, bound for the world's most remote island....

After surviving the biggest sex scandal to rock major league soccer, the Flanigans are finally living the dream. They’re newlyweds, have great friends, and are both making names for themselves in their respective careers. They have goals for their future and big plans on how to make it all happen. But when a new and unexpected development suddenly arises, Tiffany and Rowen realize all those carefully made plans are about to become irrelevant.

I can't say they didn't warn me. Right now, I realize: I probably should have listened. Because if there's anyone who has no business playing a sport that requires a helmet, pads, and a liability waiver, it's this girl. The same girl who once knocked herself out during a game of backyard baseball. I stepped up to the plate, pulled the bat back a little too far to swing, and clocked myself in the back of the skull. Boom. Lights Out Lucy. That's how I got my roller derby name. So yeah. Maybe I should have known better.

One year after her fiancé died in a heartbreaking accident, Drew McGovern decides to honor his memory by joining his old storm-chasing buddies on their latest excursion. What she's not so sure about, however, is whether she's ready to move on. Drew wasn't expecting to feel the powerful pull of desire toward Colby's best friend. But there's no denying the intensity of their connection...or the heat he inspires in the parts of her that are still very much alive.

For so long, football was my life, but in one moment, it was ripped away from me forever. Forced down another path, I opened one of the hottest nightclubs in Miami. The Takedown became my new playing field. Women threw themselves at me, and I happily caught them, tossing them away as quickly as I could, sated and with a smile on their faces. Until the night I caught Dixie Sinclair falling off her barstool.

Depuis toujours, Holly McGuire vit dans l'ombre de son frère jumeau Ethan, star de l'équipe de hockey du lycée. Pourtant, ce soir-là, un garçon la remarque : Callen Followville, le meilleur ami de son frère... et celui qui fait battre son cœur en secret. Quelques heures magiques suffisent à bouleverser sa vie. Mais le rêve tourne court lorsque Callen disparaît sans un mot, la laissant seule avec un souvenir brûlant, et une révélation qui changera tout. Dix ans plus tard, Holly pensait avoir tourné la page.

It’s not easy being “the single girl” in the friend group. Romance bookstore owner, Nessa Gibbs, loves love . . . in theory. Sadly, her real-life relationships never seem to measure up to the love stories she reads about, and at thirty-four, she’s decided to throw in the towel on dating altogether. Between running her thriving business, organizing the upcoming Rose Festival, and leading a Dungeons & Dragons campaign, she’s got more than enough to keep her satisfied.

Three weeks ago, hotel heiress and Southern society darling, Clarke Myers had it all, or so she thought. She followed the rules laid out by her mama, she bit her tongue unless explicitly asked for her opinion, and she never ever used foul language… except in her private thoughts. It isn’t until after her botched bachelorette party, that Clarke decides that it's time to start living for herself. Nothing says “fresh start” quite like moving into a vintage trailer resort in the Pacific Northwest, and working for the MLB’s newest team.

If there's one rule every pro-baller knows, it's to avoid the press like the plague. That doesn't stop Johnathan "Tuck" Tucker, the Rose City Roasters' second baseman with a heart of gold (and a hard-on for carbs), from hooking up with Portland's hot-shot sports journalist one summer evening. What starts as a one night stand quickly spirals into a series of steamy hook-ups between Tucker and the vegan-ish blond in khakis he can't resist. Getting involved with "the enemy" probably isn't the best idea, but a casual situationship couldn't hurt, right?

As social media director for the Rose City Roasters, Dani Bernal is no stranger to high-stakes pressure or hot men in baseball pants. She’s sharp, witty, and one-hundred-and-ten percent committed to keeping things professional—even when the team's gruff and guarded general manager makes her want to test every HR policy in the book. One night. That’s all it was supposed to be. That is until Dani finds herself staring down a positive pregnancy test. Suddenly, she realizes the real game has just begun.

Hailee Raine deve riuscire a sopravvivere solo un altro anno in quella città ossessionata dal football. Un ultimo anno con Jason, il suo crudele fratellastro, e i suoi amici, un branco di giocatori di football presuntuosi e arroganti. Cameron Chase ha il mondo ai suoi piedi: è bello, ha talento e ha un incredibile fascino.

A juicy promotion opportunity came up at work, and I wanted it. The only problem? I had to take on a high-profile client to get it. It didn’t help that he was a cocky professional athlete–and one of the hottest men I’d ever met. He was also the type of client who would test my patience, making me question if a promotion was worth sacrificing my ideals—not to mention my pride. I’d all but decided that the rumors about him were true. Until the day I saw him as more than just another assignment and a way to achieve my goals.

Na primeira vez que encontrei Brody Easton ele estava no vestiário masculino. Foi a minha primeira entrevista como jornalista esportiva profissional. O famoso quarterback decidiu me mostrar tudo. E, por tudo, não quero dizer que ele me disse algum de seus segredos. Não. O idiota arrogante decidiu deixar cair a toalha quando fiz a primeira pergunta. Na frente da câmera. E o famoso ganhador do Super Bowl rapidamente adotou um novo hobby: me provocar.

Dizem que os homens preferem mulheres que sejam uma dama na sala e uma puta na cama. Eu não sabia que o sentimento era recíproco, até eu conhecer Jax Knight―um cavalheiro em público, e um devasso dominante que fala sujo no quarto. Filha do lendário lutador "The Saint", Lily St. Claire sabe por experiência própria como os lutadores podem ser. Dona da rede se academias de MMA, ela está acostumada com homens agressivos, dominantes e possessivos. É por isso que ela sempre manteve distância deles. Mas, no dia em que Jax Knight passa pela sua porta, ela fica presa no seu charme.
