About the book
What if a woman who knows nothing about sports inherits a professional football team? The Windy City definitely isn't ready for Phoebe Somerville, the outrageous, curvaceous New York knockout who’s taking over their home town team. And Phoebe is definitely not prepared for the Stars' head coach Dan Calebow, a sexist jock taskmaster with a one-track mind. Calebow is everything Phoebe abhors. And the sexy boss is everything Dan despises - a meddling bimbo who doesn't know a pigskin from a pitcher's mound. So why is he drawn to the shameless sexpot like a heat-seaking missile? And why does the coach's good ol'boy charm leave cosmopolitan Phoebe feeling awkward, tongue-tied...and resdy to fight? This is the book that began it all. The Chicago Stars are about to take the field... and they’re not the only ones playing for keeps. The mismatched pair spark fireworks of all sorts in this sexy, heartwarming, and hilarious "prequel" to Phillips's This Heart of Mine.
