About this listen

In this romantic-comedy novella, the sexiest player in the NFL and a small-town librarian prove that when opposites attract, their chemistry can be game changing.

Simone Thompson wakes up in a Vegas hotel suite to discover three things:

  • Her headache might kill her.
  • The guy spooned behind her isn't some random Vegas hookup...it's James Sumner, the NFL's bad-boy wide-receiver and her twin brother's teammate.
  • There's a ring on her finger - you know...the finger.

As part of a football family, Simone knows all about the game, the good, the bad and the ugly. That's why she joined her brother's trip to Vegas in the first place - to keep an eye on him, not to end up entangled with her crush. Her very out-of-her-league crush.

James has always had the hots for Simone, and now that they're married, he sees an opening to prove to her he's more than just a playboy and that they really do belong together. But if he's really going to win over his bookish princess, he'll need to execute the perfect play....

good story

It was a cute, good story but a little too short for my tastes. I like them longer with a bit a after story. Loved the HEA but too quick of a listen in less you only a a little bit of time. But I enjoyed it.

Feel Good Romance

This cover caught my attention and it didn’t disappoint. So glad the focus was not on the professional football player but more so on the assumptions and misconceptions people make. This novella reminded me that there is more to life then responsibilities and we all need to wake up and see what’s in front of us! Would love to see this story continue!

Fun, Flirty short story

I'm so glad this was in my recommendations, because it isn't something I would normally pick up. I really enjoyed it. It was a fun story that made you smile and laugh at times, and really want good things for the two main characters. I'll definitely be keeping my eye out for this author in the future. Female Narrator wasn't my favorite but it flowed nicely and not anything to take away from the book.

Overcoming Your Fears and Giving Love a Chance

I really enjoyed this story. I liked how sometimes we have to get to the truth of why we do what we do and how fear and lies can cause us to ruin good things instead of living and loving from our true selves. A very quick listen and a nice story with lessons and a happy ending.
