Ruby O'Brien, NFL publicist extraordinaire, lives her life by three simple rules: #1 - Never date a client. #2 - Never sleep with a client. #3 - Never fall in love with a client. The problem is, she never counted on Alec LeBrun. Alec, the cocky and talented tight end of the Savannah Bootleggers, repeatedly asks Ruby for a date, and no one's more shocked than Ruby when she finally says yes. Less than twenty four hours later, however, he's engaged to someone else. Lesson learned. Two months later, Alec's single again, acting like a publicity nightmare and requiring up-close supervision. Now Ruby has to help Alec fix his bad boy reputation, even as she protects her heart. Alec watched Ruby from afar for months, long before circumstances got him engaged to his lying ex. Now he's free to pursue the only woman he's ever truly wanted. Ruby's smart, gorgeous, and super-professional, and he wants her with a hunger he's never experienced before. Too bad Ruby thinks he's still pining for another woman. Now he has to prove her wrong. Jeopardizing their careers isn't part of the plan, but he also refuses to play by her rules-not when doing so means losing the woman he loves. Can Alex convince Ruby that, sometimes, scoring in love means risking it all? And will Ruby accept that she's not second best, but the only woman Alec wants? For a lifetime.
