ALL YOU’LL EVER BE IS A PRETTY FACE

Star running back Bruce "Bruiser" Mackey has heard those words his entire life, especially after his twin brother’s tragic accident. He might use his surfer-boy good looks to land lucrative endorsements for his secret charity, but he hates books being judged by their covers. Which is why it’s wrong that his friend MacKenzie Hernandez is intent on giving herself a makeover.

Sure, Mac and her father have been reeling financially since her brother disappeared three years ago, and Lumberjacks management gives an annual scholarship that might get her life back on track, but he can’t imagine anyone smarter, sexier, or more beautiful than Mac already is. He can’t keep his hands off her—and the more they spend time together, the less he wants to. She’s perfect as is. One way or another, he’ll make sure the team’s tomboy groundskeeper gets a full ride. And between the two of them, they can learn to accept what’s behind them and look downfield to a future full of win.

My Review:

Backfield in Motion by Jami Davenport
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Seattle Lumberjack running back Bruce Mackey, aka Bruiser, is the face of the team. Not only is he a talented player but his pretty-boy looks get him endorsements left and right.

MacKenzie (Mac) Hernandez is the Lumberjacks greens keeper. The tomboy is considered one of the guys. She has had a secret crush on Bruiser for years.

Mac needs help getting the annual college scholarship awarded by Lumberjacks team. She needs to become more visible and get the attention of Veronica Simms, the team owner’s daughter. The only person Veronica seems to like is Bruce. His team mates talk Bruiser into accompanying Mac to the annual BBQ.

Bruiser and Mac might seem like a strange match, but in reality, they have a lot in common, including both being scarred with the deaths of their brothers.

Backfield in Motion is an endearing novel. Both characters suffer from a tragic past that leaves them not truly living in the future.

Jami Davenport wrote a wonderful story that I read in one sitting. This story has a little something for everyone: romance, sports, drama, mystery, and suspense.
