Story
I’ve signed numerous players to my family’s agency - I assumed winning over my next client would be just as easy. The last thing I expected was to run into the boy who took my first kiss and broke my heart: only now Drew Bowman is all grown up. Sexy. Scandal-tainted. Second-string. The crush I never got over. aI tell myself work is the reason I can’t get him out of my head. I tell him his talent far outweighs his position, and I know I can help. I lie and lie, because admitting that I want a second chance at my first love is impossible.

Story
At first, the request seemed simple - sign a new athlete to the agency. Then I found out the new athlete was none other than the most wanted man in hockey today: Hunter Maddox. Gifted. Sexy. At the top of his game. And the only man who has ever broken my heart. If signing him will help save our family business, I’ll swallow my pride and do what’s asked. But when it becomes clear his uncharacteristic antics off the ice are a hint of something deeper, keeping things strictly professional between us becomes more than complicated. But I know better than to cross that line.

Story
I know finding and signing a military vet to the agency is a long shot - but it’ll be good press just letting him try out. That’s what I tell my family, rather than admit I can’t get the letter he wrote us five years ago out of my head. But what I tell the bartender in his hometown is a lie. I know veterans protect each other. So I pretend to be a graduate student. Sparks. Flame. Fire. I accidentally got in too deep. I didn’t expect to develop feelings for Gunner Camden. And there’s no way I can admit to my lies now.

Story
Alexis should've never set foot in my world. Men like me stain girls like her. We take their innocence and tear it to shreds. She thinks she's tough. She thinks she can handle me. But she doesn't know just how deep my darkness goes. It was for the best that I claimed her for a night and left her behind. Anything more than that would have been cruel. I thought I'd seen the last of Alexis Wright. So imagine my surprise two years later when the door to my office opens...and she walks in.

I've waited years for my drop-dead sexy boss, Tristan Hunter, to notice me as something other than his right-hand gal. But though his dog is deeply in love with me, Tristan and I seem doomed to the friend zone. Until the night we kiss... It's all a ruse, of course - our make-out session is for the benefit of the two heartbreakers who dumped us - but very real sparks fly when his lips meet mine. At least...they're real for me.

Story
The first time I met Jax Blackwood things went a little sideways. I didn't know he was Jax Blackwood - who expects a legendary rock star to be shopping for groceries? More importantly, a blizzard was coming, and he was about to grab the last carton of mint-chocolate chip. Still, I might have walked away, but then he smugly dared me to try and take the coveted ice cream. So I kissed him. And distracted that mint-chip right out of his hands. Okay, it was a dirty move, but desperate times and all that. Besides, I never expected he'd be my new neighbor.

He's big. He's sexy. And he's hung. The first time I met Pick Revere I tried to bash his head in with a baseball bat. The second time, I kissed the ever-loving daylights out of him on a dare. For a girl who's on the lam and hiding from her cop ex, I'm failing miserably at laying low. Instead, I'm going up in delicious flames - because Pick's the hottest, roughest, toughest bad boy firefighter I've ever laid eyes (or lips) on.

The first time I met Merrick Crawford was during my job interview. Well, technically, I’d met him 20 minutes earlier when he’d barged into a fitting room a few doors down from my appointment. I yelled. He yelled. After an argument while standing in my bra, I proceeded to smash the door into the gorgeous jerk, trying to yank it shut. As you might imagine, I was freaked out when I discovered that the rude guy was my potential new boss. Yet he didn’t seem to recognize me. Or so I thought.... Until we wound up bickering again during my interview and he told me to go sniff my armpit.

The requirement is ridiculous but simple. Spend two months in Cedar Falls, and play the mayor’s games to ensure that The Retreat, Sharpe International’s newest resort, can open. But I have a history with this small Montana town. One I’d tried to forget but never could. Asher Wells. My lavender girl. She’d had dreams and aspirations to leave Cedar Falls and make her mark on the world. So why is she still here, standing in front of me?

Written by: K. Bromberg
Publisher's Summary
New York Times best-selling author K. Bromberg is back with a heartfelt stand-alone romance and a new hero to steal your heart....
Lennox:
The contract with Major League Soccer was supposed to help repair my damaged reputation. Then I discovered that I’d made a deal with the devil: The player I’m supposed to recruit is none other than the bad-boy star Premier League footballer Rush McKenzie.
British. Tattooed. Sexy. A man currently at the center of a huge scandal.
The goal? To convince him to stay in the States.
But what’s wrong with a little fun in the meantime? No strings. No sweet nothings. Just a way to pass the time while we’re both struggling to prove our true selves to the world.
If someone found out our relationship was anything more than professional, it would only serve to prove all our critics right.
Rush:
I never should have agreed to take the fall. But I did, and I’m a man of my word.
Even if it means risking everything I’ve worked for.
The only bright side is Lennox Kincade.
Gorgeous. Defiant. Rumor-tainted. Totally off-limits.
Sharing a house with the gorgeous sports agent should have been a fun distraction from the turmoil. Someone to help pass the time while the tensions back home die down.
But what started as nothing ends up as something I never saw coming.
More from the same

Another great book!!!
I swear K. Bromberg always get me crying!! This was a great story. Rush only ever wanted to be a footballer. He had a really hard childhood and did anything to get by. Because of something that happened in his childhood he feels in debt to someone. He takes the blame for something he didn’t do. His agent tells him to come to L.A. and to help promote their league. Let things die down. Turns out he ends up meeting a agent who he starts to fall for. She’s the perfect woman because she too only knows this is for a short time. They both don’t want to be tied down. They don’t expect to fall for each other. He can tell
She cares about him in a way no one since his mom had. She’s giving him advice that favours him and it’s not the same advice his agent is giving. He wants what’s good for him and his pockets not listening or his client. Shane East and Vanessa Edwin were so good in this story! Five Stars!!

Romance Novel Perfection ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Oh man, was this book amazing!! I don’t take time to write a lot of reviews - I’m usually too busy trying to find my next book - but this story was so incredible, I just had to take a moment to praise it. I give it ALL THE STARS!!! Bromberg is one of my favorite authors and she simply outdid herself with this one! It was everything and more a romance novel should be. Beautifully written. A flawless mix of sexy and sweet, alluring yet relatable. Lennox and Rush were a perfect fit for each other and it was a pleasure to take this ride to their HEA with them. I was rooting for them the entire time, invested in the outcome. Very likable main characters - damaged but lovable, and both good to their cores, both worthy of finding their happy ending. Great side characters as well. I also personally enjoy a sports romance...and what’s not to love about a gorgeous, talented and loyal British footballer who meets his match in a sexy, strong sports agent with a heart of gold! If stories this top-notch were released everyday, I’d never accomplish anything in life...completely swept me away! The narration was excellent - and I could listen to Shane East’s sexy British accent all day, everyday. Basically, this was romance novel magic! Best use of a credit, ever!!!

soooo good
rush and Lennox have a beautiful story. Kristy is one of those few authors that can pull you in from the first word and this story was no different. I can't wait to see how the other 2 sisters story unfolds. but by far she writes the BEST dads in her stories. Kenyon is an amazing character that you can feel his deep bear hugs through the pages.

Loving this series
I am new to K. Bromberg books and loving her style with this series. Some of the reviews on the first book were brutal. Glad I did not follow along with those opinions and gave this series a chance. Emotion, humor, drama, and a story that kept my attention, with a beautiful happy ever after ending: what more can you want? Looking forward to the 3rd Kincaid sister’s story.

I’m enjoying this series. Each book and story is unique to each couple and I’m learning a lot about the different sports. Light, fun and sexy stories just what I love in a romance book.
