Synopsis

The New York Times bestselling author of Big Girl Panties is back with a funny, sweet, and sizzling novel about love, redemption, and second chances.

Heartthrob star quarterback Tyson Palmer has it all: a million-dollar arm, a winning season and the promise of a Superbowl ring. But more importantly, football’s biggest star is the ultimate comeback kid. After an addiction to painkillers nearly derailed his career, Tyson got sober and went from zero to hero in the eyes of the public.

But one person remains unconvinced: Dani Carr, a sports commentator with high ratings and following of her own.

Dani can’t forgive Tyson’s transgressions or forget a single passionate night with him back in college. To make things worse, Tyson doesn’t realize that the bombshell with huge ratings is the cute co-ed whose heart he once broke.

But can a sports journalist trying to claw her way to the top and a quarterback who knows all about rock bottom make it to the Super Bowl without destroying each other? And what will happen when Tyson—riding high now that he’s revived his career—realizes he needs to make an even more important comeback with Dani? Can he use his million-dollar moves to get past her defenses—or will she sideline him for good?

Stephanie Evanovich is a full-fledged Jersey girl from Asbury Park and the New York Times bestselling author of Big Girl Panties and The Sweet Spot.

From Publishers Weekly

Revelations, redemption, and romance make for a winning combination in Evanovich's charming third outing (after The Sweet Spot). A descent into drug and alcohol addiction sidelined quarterback Tyson Palmer's promising football career. Four years later, he's returned to the field, stronger and sober. Spunky sports commentator Dani Carr can never forget the night she spent with Tyson, her college crush, but she's hesitant to forgive the superstar for his reckless behavior. After a public meeting turns Dani into a media darling, Tyson becomes determined to win her over. Dani, however, wants to keep her heart and her secrets safe. Evanovich adds depth and dimension to a tried-and-true formula, providing readers with relatable struggles, memorable side characters, and a hilarious wedding fiasco. While the answer to "Will they or won't they?" is foregone, the sass and sexual tension keep the pages turning. (Mar.)\n
