When determined Gracie Snow is sent to drag a charming ex-football star back to his hometown for a movie shoot, she's ready for resistance—but not for the chemistry that ignites the moment they meet. Bobby Tom Denton is used to getting his way with his devastating smile and playboy reputation, so he figures turning the uptight Ohio woman into a confident Texas wildcat will be the perfect distraction from actually cooperating with her plan. What neither of them expects is how their teasing banter and late-night conversations will peel back their carefully constructed walls, revealing the genuine connection hiding underneath all that delicious tension. This is the kind of romance that makes you believe in the transformative power of the right person at the right time—equal parts laugh-out-loud fun and swoon-worthy chemistry.
