REVIEW: Political manipulations lose to an enduring love -- Her parents have been manipulating Maddox’s life since he fell in love with Avery. First to send him away to the Marines and then by holding the financial key to his mother’s cancer treatment. The dream of political power overshadows whatever parental concern may have existed for Avery. Her mother is headed to the White House and her General father will do whatever is necessary to reach that goal. Avery is just a support piece in a dangerous game. Maddox is hired to protect Avery but nothing can keep them safe from the love started seven years ago. The viciousness of the mother seems a little overdone but adds to the suspense of the story. I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
DESCRIPTION, NOT REVIEW: Jessica Roads, the Social Media Coordinator for the Miami Thunder, spent a year with the wrong man. While at a local watering hole, she runs into her ex, with his wife. She’s over him, but wants to drive the point home, so when her best friend dares her to kiss the next man who walks through the door, Jessica is all over it.

Don’t dare me…

Nolan Greer, the new Offensive Coordinator for the Miami Thunder, has had a rough couple of years. After a knee injury, he contemplated retiring. However, he made the decision when he found out he was the father of a one-year-old little girl with a birth defect that needs surgery, and her mother jut died. All Nolan wants is to get to know his daughter without being in the public eye. He never meant to keep her a secret…but no one knows he has a child.

Sparks flew the moment Jessica and Nolan kissed, but it immediately tosses them into a media frenzy, putting Nolan and his daughter in the middle of it, while someone is trying to destroy Jessica’s reputation.

Can Nolan dare to risk his heart…and his daughters?

Can Jessica dare to trust another man who’d kept a secret from her? ( )
