I never saw him coming. My life goals include working with athletes-not dating them. Even though all my friends seem to be hooking up with Wildcats players these days, that wasn't in the cards for me. Then I met Finn McCabe. The big D-lineman is a padded-up ad for sin-surprisingly sweet, scary-smart, a little awkward, and far too hot for my own good. Too bad he has questionable taste in women . . . With the game on the line . . . Timing that first step for a free shot at the quarterback is always my focus. The trick is not to jump too soon and be called for offsides. Unfortunately, I forgot the rules when it comes to hooking up with the perfect girl. Everything with Chessly Clarke is moving exactly on time until a certain group of jersey chasers shows up and flags the play. Timing is everything. The moment I look into Chessly's dark blue eyes, I'm a goner. Then I jumped offsides. Playing football for a national championship-caliber team, I know the rewards for hard work, and Chess is worth everything I'm willing to do for a second chance. She's a little nerdy, a lot sexy, and she ties me up in knots. She thinks she knows the score, but I'm focused on winning her heart. Game Time.
