Clay: As a scientist, Pepper Montgomery is all about work and no play. I get it. She’s serious minded, and that’s wicked attractive, but as a quarterback, I play for a living. I never thought I’d need help focusing on the game. There’s a reason fans call me Mr. Perfect. When an incident on the field impacts my skills, I’m forced to seek unconventional help or give up the career I love. Sparks fly between me and the sexy scientist, and I’m looking forward to showing her the benefits of hands-on research.
Pepper: I don’t watch sports. I don’t understand any of the games, and I have far more important things to do than help a wealthy football player hone his skills. But my sister is married to one of his closest friends, and I begrudgingly agree to try to help him just to appease her. Big mistake. The project requires us spending extended periods of time together, and I discover there’s a lot more to the insanely hot, impossibly charming quarterback than meets the eye. Our chemistry is too strong to deny, but after a while, I can’t help wondering if he’s just been playing Mr. Perfect all along.
THE BRADENS AT RIDGEPORT
Playing Mr. Perfect
Sincerely, Mr. Braden
More Bradens coming soon!
