by Sherri Hayes (Goodreads Author)

After a case ended badly for Rebecca Carson, she’s losing her mind sitting around her apartment waiting on her superiors to allow her to return to work. Since she was a teenager, the only thing she’d ever wanted was to join the FBI. Now that dream was in danger.

Gage Daniels has made a pretty good life for himself. A nice house. A career he loves. As a professional football player, he’s used to getting almost everything he’d ever want with just the snap of his fingers. This includes women. A well-timed smile is usually all it takes to attract the opposite sex, especially in Nashville.

When a stalker threatens Gage, the team owner calls an old friend, Rebecca’s ex-partner Travis Hansen, to help protect his star quarterback and find the person responsible. Hansen offers Rebecca the job, and she jumps at the chance. It’s work, and it will get her out of her apartment. How bad can it be?

Posing as Gage’s girlfriend, however, isn’t as easy as it seems. The man is relentless. Rebecca must work to protect Gage while staving off his advances. She’s there to do a job, nothing more. The last thing she wants is to be another notch on a hotshot athlete’s belt.

As the stalker continues to up the ante, Rebecca finds it harder and harder to keep her distance from Nashville’s star quarterback. He isn’t what she expected in one of the city’s most notorious playboys. Now all she has to do is keep him safe until they can find his stalker, and hope she doesn’t lose her heart in the process.

My Review...

Well I was given the chance to read and ARC of this book and was so excited for two reasons.
1) It was written by Sherri Hayes whom I love her writing especially the Finding Anna Series and
2) It is a sports romance *sigh* I am a sucker for that genre. Sweaty, sexy athletes whom find love mmmm.

This is the second book in a series. The first book was Behind Closed Doors (The Daniels Brothers). In this book you get to meet the Daniel family with a quick glance of Gage and his player ways.

That Daniel's family has some bad luck with stalkers. First Chris and now Gage.

In this book to help protect Gage he has to pretend to be Agent Rebecca boyfriend. I didn't feel the connection from Gage towards Rebecca right away like I did from Rebecca with Gage but his love and feelings for her grew and became quite all consuming.

I assume there will be a third book with the third brother Paul

The connection between Gage and Rebecca is loving, yet steamy. As usual with Sherri there is alot of drama and suspense that keeps you engaged throughout the book.

It was a great read. 4 thumbs up!
