BRENT

I’ve wanted Joey and her tempting body for years, so why am I not jumping at the chance when she propositions me?

Because she’s a virgin, and I’m a player (on and off the field) and I have a lot of playing left to do. Not to mention, she’s my sister’s best friend and about to start working as a trainer for my team.

But she’s a temptation I can’t resist. So I accept—after setting down some ground rules for the game we’re about to play. Yet somehow I’m the one bending those rules and moving the goalposts.

Before I can figure out the new playbook, demons from my past reappear and threaten to take me out of the game.

JOEY

I’ve had a crush on Brent for years, so why am I hesitating when he counters with a proposition of his own?

Afraid he’ll break my heart? Maybe. Because of my body image issues? Yes, that too.

Determined to break out of my shell and have a little fun, I accept his terms. Who better to show me a good time than a sexy NFL tight end who knows how to play? But following his rules would be easier if he didn’t make me feel like a goddess with every look, every touch, and every word.

When he suddenly becomes secretive, I must decide between my newfound self-worth and my growing love for him.

Brent and Joey must overcome their fear and mistrust to win in the game of love.
