False Start

When a familiar face walks into your real estate office, you can't believe it's Kyle Robbins—the rookie tight end who broke your heart years ago—and now he's your new client. The lucrative commission from helping him find his perfect Seattle home is exactly what you need to escape your troubled past and build a fresh start for you and your son, so you're determined to keep things professional despite the undeniable chemistry still crackling between you. But when Kyle discovers the marks of your abusive ex-husband, he insists on being your fake boyfriend to keep the danger at bay—a plan that's supposed to be temporary protection but quickly becomes dangerously real. As stolen touches and pretend kisses blur the lines between what's fake and what was never really over, you're left wondering if your heart can survive playing this game with the one person who's always had the power to destroy it.
