When I told my parents during my senior year that I wasn't going to college, they lost their minds. There was only one person that stood beside me, and that was my sister Sammie. I'd been working with computers since I was ten. Everyone laughed and joked about how much time I spent in my room. They had no idea that I'd been working on something great. Sammie listened when I told her I already knew more than I'd learn in college. She believed me when I told her what I was working on would make a difference, and she defended me every step of the way. I had big dreams, and nothing was going to stop me from making them happen. The best part was that I was doing it on my own. It wasn't going to be because of my dad, his affiliation with baseball, or his money. It wasn't going to have anything to do with Sammie's husband giving me a job. It was going to be all me. I was going to make it happen on my own. When the day came to tell my parents that all of those hours they'd thought I'd been messing around in my room had paid off, I couldn't wait to see their faces. I was going to blow their minds. I'd made one of my dreams come true, but I wasn't done yet. When I looked at my sister, her husband, and their daughter, I thought about having that for myself one day. I hadn't had a serious relationship yet, and I wasn't interested in one either. Sure, I hooked up every now and then, but I'd never let it become anything more than that. Every moment was put into my future, and that was exactly where my attention needed to stay. I still had one big dream I needed to make happen. Until I did, nothing else would matter. Then I got an email that would change my life forever. All those years of working hour after hour, day after day were paying off. I'd been offered the job of a lifetime. There was only one thing standing in my way. I need to keep my eyes on the prize. I needed to stay focused. Then she walked in, sat down next to me, and turned my world upside down.

There was something about the woman that sat next to me in the hotel bar. She was beautiful in her t-shirt and jeans, and she didn't seem to notice that everyone around us was dressed to impress. When she touched my arm and I felt an unfamiliar zap, I felt the need to suddenly pull away. Minutes turned into hours while we talked, and I couldn't help but want to learn more about her. When we stepped into the elevator, we realized our rooms were on the same floor. We were right next to each other. I watched her hips move beneath the tight denim covering her curves as she walked ahead of me. When she stopped in front of her door and the air between us vanished, I had a huge decision to make. 1. Would I do what I knew I needed to do and walk away from her? I had the meeting of my life just hours away, and I needed to get sleep so I could be at the top of my game. It was my dream job, and I was meeting my enemy, the one who'd messed with me for years. My life was planned out, and that meeting was vital to the entire plan. I needed rest. I needed to stay focused. 2. Would I slam her body against the hotel room door and cover her mouth with mine? I'd been feeling so much tension since I'd walked out of my earlier meeting. A little stress relief might help, I told myself. What could it hurt? The moment her lips came up to meet mine, I was done. It was the first time since I was ten that I'd ever put anything in front of my dreams. I knew it was a bad idea. I knew I needed to turn around, go to my room, and keep my head in the game, but I couldn't do it. There was something about her that I had to have. I'd never had a serious relationship, and I'd never cared for a repeat performance. I had things to do. Once they were done, I'd think about the long term. I grabbed my clothes, threw them on, and hurried to my room. Two hours was all the time I had to sleep before my meeting, and I needed every second. There was only one problem, and she was in the next room. I couldn't get her out of my mind. Every time I closed my eyes, I thought about all of things I wanted to do to her. That wasn't me. I wasn't that guy. I walked into my meeting the next morning trying to keep it together. I was exhausted, and I was distracted. Neither of those were appropiate in that moment. When the door opened an hour later and my competition walked through the door, my world stopped. My competition, the guy who'd been giving me shit for years, wasn't a guy at all. My enemy was a woman, but not just any woman. A Love for the Game Series 1. Showing Him Who's Boss Part 1,2,3 2. Playing Hardball Part 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 3.

How could my enemy, the one who'd tortured me for years, end up being the very same woman that felt so good beneath me? I swore it wasn't going to make a difference. I was going to get the job I'd worked so hard for, and I was going to take her down in the process. There was only one problem. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get her cocky, beautiful mouth out of my mind. I couldn't help seeing her sexy body every time I closed my eyes. I needed to get my head in the game. It was either her or me. It couldn't be both of us. Then it happened, we were brought together again. Those same feelings flew right to the surface, and I wanted her more than ever. When she knocked on my door, I couldn't turn her away. One more night wouldn't hurt anything. That was what I told myself anyway. When I woke up and she was gone, I was pissed. Who did she think she was walking out on me? Then I found a piece of paper with Eric's name and number on it. Screw her! I was done. She was going down. It wasn't that simple. Nothing ever was when it came to her. The woman turned my life upside down. It was one twist after the next with her. There were a few she didn't even see coming. Could I walk away from it all for the one thing I'd been working for all my life, or would I give up everything I'd ever wanted to take a risk on love? A Love for the Game Series 1.
