Game Changer

2023

A steamy, grumpy sunshine sports romance featuring a woman down on her luck, a star basketball player with a filthy mouth, and a connection neither of them can deny. After being dumped and losing my job the same week, the last thing my broken heart needs is a rebound. I’m escaping across the country to help my perfect sister plan her dream wedding, and to prove to both of us everything is under control. But a combination of tequila and turbulence on the flight there lead to word-vomiting all my troubles to the huge and handsome stranger in the first-class seat next to mine. Only his whispered dirty diversions keep me sane until landing. Despite the spark of attraction, we go our separate ways. Or so I thought. Turns out the tall, muscular, tattooed tower of a man from the plane is the star player on my future brother-in-law’s pro basketball team. Clay is the last person I should gravitate toward. They’re called “players” for a reason. Grumpy and cynical, he carries a weight on his shoulders I can’t possibly fathom. He’s also the only one who knows my secrets and gets my heart racing. The more we’re thrust together, the stronger the chemistry between us becomes. Hooking up with the all-star athlete isn’t the way to get my life on track…but it could just be the game changer we’ve both been searching for.

He leads the league in scoring. My heart won’t give him another shot. I vowed I’d never return to Denver. But a life-changing opportunity puts me back in the same place as the grumpy athlete who broke my heart. Clayton Wade rules the basketball stadium, and now he’s gunning for redemption. But I'm not the same girl who fell for the man behind the all-star image. He made me want him like I’ve never wanted anyone. More than that, he made me believe in forever. Until he ripped it all away. I won't risk my heart again. Not even when a single dirty look can make me ache, and a kind word in his gruff voice makes my chest tight. Except Clay isn’t ready to let me go. He’s determined to win me back, and his persistence is starting to wear down my defenses. If I can’t trust him, I’m setting myself up for another heartbreak. But he’ll do anything to prove we’re worth another shot. Shot Taker is a full-length grumpy sunshine sports romance and book 2 in the King of the Court series.

Countdown's on, and I’m playing for keeps. Play Maker is the third and final book in the King of the Court series.
