By- Jean C. Joachim

Blurb-
He wants to find a wife. She doesn’t want to marry again –ever. Not exactly a match made in heaven. Ten years ago, Griff Montgomery, star quarterback of the Kings and womanizer, became a stand-in father for his widowed sister’s kids. His happy family life collapsed when she and her new husband moved to California. Griff wants his own family. But where does a “player” go to find his ideal mate?
Having sworn off marriage forever, Lauren Farraday barely kept her life together after her divorce. With her career shaky and depression closing in, the last thing she needed was a courtroom battle with a sexy athlete.
Forced, by a judge, into an uneasy truce, the pair denied their growing chemistry. Wary of Griff’s reputation with women, and hiding a secret, Lauren keeps him at arm’s length. Determined, Griff marches toward his goal. Can the quarterback handle the truth or will he walk away, like he always has in the past?

Known for his record-breaking stats and womanizing ways, wide receiver, Buddy Carruthers, would give it all up for one chance to win the only woman he ever wanted, Emmy Meacham.

Now a rock star known as Emerald, Emmy lived her life on the road with no time for love. In her dreams, she longed to turn back the clock and spend another night with Buddy. But lies and deceit had kept them apart for five years. Would a chance meeting wash away those years or cause old wounds to resurface? Could two lives traveling in opposite directions make room for love or would they continue to spin, out of sync, and always alone?


   


    




Character Bio



  Buddy Carruthers is a star wide receiver. Though only five foot ten, he’s fast as the wind and strong. Handsome and charming in a boyish way, Buddy finds plenty of women ready to warm his bed. But he’s fussy. Not just any convenient woman will do, even if she has a pretty face.

  He grew up in a humble home. His dad, now deceased, worked for the post office and his mom, Verna, was a teacher.

  Buddy had an easy life until his last year of college. He’d fallen in love and was prepared to compete in the NFL draft. But his beloved Emmy left before graduation to pursue a music career and he didn’t make the draft.

  The wide receiver worked his way up in less known football teams until he was signed by the Connecticut Kings. There he became a star, winning most valuable player awards. Along the way, Buddy became a womanizer. While looking for someone to fill the hole in his heart, he met a lot of women, but none fit the bill.

  After her husband’s death, Verna went to school to become a financial advisor. When her son signed a big contract, she stepped in to manage his money. In return he bought her a small house not far from the Kings’ stadium. Mother and son remained close, while still allowing each other to have their own lives.

  Buddy is well respected by his teammates, but his closest friend is Griff Montgomery, the quarterback. Not only do they work together well in football, but they play together well off the field. Two men sought after by the ladies, each seeks the one woman who can make his life complete.
