First and Ten: Let the Games Begin
“A Swinging Gate Sports Romance”
Tagline/Logline: In football and romance, true winners are only determined by how long their
hearts stay invested in the game.
Back cover blurb:
Football
superstar Kemper Kapertone is caught in a compromising position. Thrust into a
media frenzy, Kemper flies across the country hoping to save a relationship now
shattered beyond repair.
Tired
of waiting on the sidelines, Kara Ball decides the role of jilted lover doesn’t
work for her. Kara springs into action and pursues her sexy neighbor, an
irresistible Dom who is twenty-seven years her senior and the object of her
most recent fantasies.
Zak
Stone stops by Kara’s condominium to drop off a parcel, but after the sexy
seductress learns of her boyfriend’s engagement, plans change. Soon, Kara opens up a package filled with
illicit toys and the naughty ideas start churning.
While Kemper races against time to set
things right, Kara invites Zak to stay overnight, hoping an evening of passion
will keep him coming back for more. Fortunately for Kara, Zak is only interested
in playing for keeps.
Half page teaser:
“Are you in the business of fooling around with younger women?” she
asked, working a strut like he’d never seen from her before. Leaning over to
pick up the handcuffs she’d deliberately—and obviously—dropped, she wiggled her
behind.
He swore under his breath, wishing he could set aside his morals for
one night and take her in his arms and hold her there until he taught her a few
things about Domination and submission. He’d show her why a Dominant man needed
a submissive woman. He’d teach her how to willingly submit and make her
understand that through her submission, she would know empowerment. She would
experience a new level of intimacy.
“I’ve only been with Kemper,” she told him, acting as if her
revelation was the best news he’d received in over a decade.
In fact, he would’ve preferred it then if she’d confessed to
promiscuous behavior.
“You’re hurting,” he reminded her, reading entirely too much into
her confession. “I’m here and you have a wounded heart, a torn soul. I can’t
heal you, Kara.”
How did he tell her he didn’t want to heal her? How did he explain
that while he wanted to kiss it and make it better, curing her wasn’t on his mind. He wanted to claim her. And if
claimed her, he fully intended to keep her.
How did a man tell a woman that?
She took a step toward him. He took one step back. She shot him this funny little look, crossed
her arms, and for a minute, he could’ve sworn she was about to strip her shirt
over her head.
He willed her to stop even though his body had already reached a
decision, drawn all conclusions.
One touch and she was his. One gesture to indicate she fully
intended to invite him to stay and he would give in to the long awaited
temptation, the attraction he could not deny.
She moved toward him again, taking three short calculated steps as
if she had deliberately analyzed the best way to separate their distance just
as she’d done earlier when they’d been downstairs on her sofa.
“I can’t take his place, Kara. I can’t make the hurt go away.”
“You can try.”
