Lose a shoe. Take a bite of the apple. Fall in love with a beast. Star midfielder Cole Hawthorne is a beast on the field, eliminating and destroying one defender at a time. Although he is a gifted athlete, his aggressive reputation makes him responsible to his team and a villain in the League. As Cole's agent, it is my job to convince the brooding loner that being sold is better than being kicked out of the game. If he loses the contract, the single mother will be left without a job. So, the task of “taming the beast” is especially for me. But the closer I get to the ferocious monster, the more I fall in love with the passionate man who hides underneath. He's rough and charming. Tough and sweet. Dangerous... but even he can't resist my baby's giggles. Denying my feelings may protect my heart, but the sell-by date is approaching. When Cole reveals the dirty truth about the deal, I can't let the League keep us apart. Am I saving my career... or protecting a man who deserves to be happy? Maybe no one can love a beast... But they haven't met Cole Hawthorne yet.18 +
