Playing the Advantage: a forced proximity, sports romance

0/5 ( ratings)

What happens in Vegas should stay in Vegas ... right?KenzieAnd just like that, I lost my home, my job, and my dog. Oh, and I also lost my boyfriend, but the girl I found him with can keep him.To reclaim my dog, I need a job and the only one on offer is to be the publicist for the Southern Mavericks football team. I don’t know what code, and it doesn’t matter because if I take the job, I’m flying to Vegas tomorrow with the team.I don’t expect an instant attraction with the captain, even though he makes me laugh. I don’t want to be forced to share a hotel room, especially when we both want the same side of the bed. I can’t be seen to date a player when I’m working for the team. Workplace romances never work out, I should know.But behind the banter and laughter, there is a broken hero that I can’t help but love. I can’t fix him. I can’t save him.How can I stand back and watch the man I love destroy his career and possibly lose his life?CooperI’ve been avoiding two things for most of my life, relationships and therapy. If you search my name, rugby league isn’t even in the first dozen pages. I’ve played hard to earn my reputation, but my new team needs a leader, not a bad boy.Except, I can’t resist the woman forced to share my room. I don’t believe in love or romance, but I believe in Kenzie.But a lie by omission is still a lie and even though it almost cost me my life, when Kenzie walked away, I realize it cost far more.I will do anything to make her forgive me. I will do anything to make her believe in me, even therapy.I will become the player my team deserves on the field, man she deserves off the field, and hope by the end of the game, Kenzie’s standing in the bleaches and calling my name.Playing the Advantage is a forced proximity, opposites attract, forbidden love, sports romance set in Vegas and Australia. It can be read stand-alone, has no cheating or cliffhangers, and has the HEA that Cooper and Kenzie deserve.
