Goodreads:  Star quarterback, first-round draft-pick, and heartthrob Tyson Palmer has made a name for himself with his spectacular moves. When the head coach of the Austin Mavericks refuses to let him waste his million-dollar arm, Tyson makes a Hail Mary pass at redemption and succeeds with everyone . . . except Dani, whose negative comments about his performance draw high ratings and spectacular notices of her own.

Dani can’t forgive Tyson’s transgressions or forget the sizzling history the two of them shared in college, a passionate love Tyson casually threw away. And even more infuriating, he doesn’t realize that the bombshell with huge ratings is the cute girl whose heart he once broke.

But can a woman 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 make some spectacular moves to get past her defenses—or will she sideline him for good?


Kritters Thoughts:  Boy meets girl, boy gets famous and has scandal, boy meets girl again and again and again and maybe eventually it will work out!  

Tysons Palmer played football in college and Dani was his tutor to help him get through.  He graduates and goes professional, but without a support system he is a track wreck waiting to happen and it happens.  They cross paths a few times and finally end up working for the same team and have to interact often.  Dani has a secret that will eventually have to come out and may alter their course forever.

A quick fun read that literally took an afternoon to enjoy.  I loved how they kept missing each other and then one was ready for a relationship and then the other wasn't it was a great cat/mouse will they/won't they read.  

It definitely had some sexy times, but nothing too too over the top, but if you try to avoid books with any romantic bedroom moments, you may want to be wary about this one.

I know it isn't quite summer time yet, but this is a perfect one to throw in your bag for a day at the pool or beach or just outside.  

Rating: definitely a good read, but can't read two in a row
