Jesse has made it abundantly clear over the years that he wants nothing to do with her–and Viola has no idea why. When their bosses insist a wintery retreat is the perfect team-building exercise, Viola can’t think of anything worse. Being freezing cold in a remote mountain lodge knowing Jesse is right next door? No, thank you.

To ensure my body parts stay intact, I only need to follow one simple rule: don't touch my captain's little sister.

Can true love come from a one-night stand? I was naive enough to believe it could. But the truth is that Jacob is leading a double life. He was just taking advantage of me, and now I'm expecting his child…. Some people have everything: a husband, a family, a great career, a big house. I have none of that. Frustrated and lonely, I dive into the nightlife and meet the mysterious Jacob, who seduces me over a game of poker. There's a sizzle between us, and the evening ends in his hotel suite... Then, we run into each other by chance on the streets of New York.

As the league's reigning playboy, I've had more than a few women arrive on my doorstep. But until tonight, I've never had a baby show up. A baby.

The last thing I need is to get involved with someone who is down on their luck. Besides, I need to figure out this whole parenting thing. Not winning over Stevie.

My twin and I knew we were going home to strangers who would be living in our house. I tried to prepare myself, telling myself to be kind and polite. But what I wasn't prepared for was… her. Bellamy Clark. With her long, fiery red hair and the freckles that I couldn't stop staring at, her curious green eyes felt like they were peering straight into my soul. The first time I saw her, I had to remind myself to breathe. Within hours of being under the same roof, I found myself wanting to run, though not for reasons I was willing to admit.

Er ist der perfekte Kandidat für meine Liste der noch unerfüllten Wünsche – solange nur niemand davon erfährt.

Coach Jones made it clear to all of us—no dating his daughter. As much as I hate being told what to do, I value my life enough not to get involved.

Noch nie zuvor hat mich jemand so angesehen.

Jace Thatcher musthave her. Ever since he laid eyes on Riley, the Tennessee Tigers' star wide receiver has been consumed by the thought of making her his—possessing her, body and soul. But Riley isn't a game to be won. She has scars that run deep, and a past that's never too far behind her. Riley's looking for a clean start when the cocky football player enters her life.
