Malcolm Gray is Lauren Emerson's biggest regret. Eight years ago, a breakdown of trust cost her a beautiful future with the most charming man she'd ever met. Now a career-making opportunity brings the nutrition entrepreneur home, where she hopes to declare a truce with her ex-love, the star running back of the Los Angeles Cobras. But their first encounter unleashes explosive passion --and unwanted memories of the precious dreams they once shared. Malcolm can't forgive Lauren for her betrayal after they had pledged their eternal devotion. But her play-stopping curves alone are a turn-on he can't resist. He knows he'll never get over her -- nor does he want to. Is their love worth a second chance? Or is he risking heartbreak again? As they jockey for position, a new set of rules could change the game for both of them.
