A florist done with love and a football player off his game—this Valentine’s Day, they’re each other’s wild card. After a disastrous football season, NFL star Joe Matthews retreats to his hometown, Honeysuckle Ridge, West Virginia, looking to escape the spotlight. The last person he expects to run into is Ella Banks—his quiet, quirky high school classmate, now the owner of the town’s charming florist shop. Ella’s sworn off love and sees Valentine’s Day as just good business, but when Joe walks into her shop, old sparks ignite. She’s anti-romance, and he’s scared to put his heart on the line, but sometimes love blooms in the most unexpected places. Wild Card Valentine is a short and sweet holiday treat that’s meant to be read in two hours or less. It has no cliffhangers, a guaranteed HEA, and all the sizzle, but no explicit content.
