First Time in Paperback
SummaryChicago Stars quarterback Dean Robillard is the luckiest man
in the world: a bona-fide sports superstar and the pride of
the NFL with a profitable side career as a buff billboard
model for End Zone underwear. But life in the glory lane has
started to pale, and Dean has set off on a cross-country
trip to figure out what's gone wrong. When he hits a lonely
stretch of Colorado highway, he spies something that will
shake up his gilded life in ways he can't imagine. A young
woman . . . dressed in a beaver suit.
Blue Bailey is on a mission to murder her ex. Or at least
inflict serious damage. As for the beaver suit she's wearing
. . . Is it her fault that life keeps throwing her
curveballs? Witness the expensive black sports car pulling
up next to her on the highway and the Greek god stepping out
of it.
Blue's career as a portrait painter is the perfect job for
someone who refuses to stay in one place for very long. She
needs a ride, and America's most famous football player has
an imposing set of wheels. Now, all she has to do is keep
him entertained, off guard, and fully clothed before he
figures out exactly how desperate she is.
But Dean isn't the brainless jock she imagines, and
Bluedespite her petite statureis just about the
toughest woman Dean has ever met. They're soon heading for
his summer home where their already complicated lives and
inconvenient attraction to each other will become entangled
with a charismatic but aging rock star; a beautiful
fifty-two-year-old woman trying to make peace with her rock
and roll past; an eleven-year-old who desperately needs a
family; and a bitter old woman who hates them all.
As the summer progresses, the wandering portrait artist and
the charming football star play a high-stakes game, fighting
themselves and each other for a chance to have it all.
