Playing for Kicks

Sean Decker takes pride in his reputation as the best kicker in the league. His other reputation - for falling in love with every girl he meets - is more of an urban legend. Sure, he likes women, but he just wants to meet a nice one and settle down, especially since his latest hookup has gone all kinds of wrong. If he can just extricate himself from that suffocating mess, he swears to learn from it. And when he meets the blend of fresh air and independence that is Tess Colby, he knows she's the one to help him.

Tess has no interest in being Sean's latest conquest. Not only has she heard the rumors, but she's focused on making the jump from bartender to sportswriter. In exchange for an interview, she's willing to give him the same in-depth advice she always gives brokenhearted guys across the bar. But date him? No way.

Sean claims he doesn't want to date. Just hang out. Although for some reason, his definition of hanging out includes kissing. It's fun, but Tess knows she needs to stay strong. Not just for her own sake, but maybe for the kicker's, too.
