BLURB
L. P. Doverâs tantalizing Second Chances series scores once again as the Carolina Cougarsâ infamous bad boy takes a shot at seducing a driven career woman whoâs supposed to be out of bounds.
Trying to live down his very public indiscretions, Carolina Cougars kicker Jaxon Reed feels like the most hated man in the NFL. Fans and teammates alike treat him with the disrespect he figures he deserves. Unfortunately for them, Jaxonâs no easy target. As payback, he sets his sights on the quarterbackâs sister: a sultry brunette whoâs curvy, confident, and sexy as hell. But what begins as a revenge fling turns into so much moreâa lesson in humanity, and in love.
Bristol Thomas doesnât have time for games, especially those played by her brotherâs Neanderthal teammates. A talented interior designer with lofty goals, she doesnât know the first thing about football, or Jaxonâexcept that heâs exactly the type of man she usually avoids. But when his deep laugh and deeper kisses break through her walls, she becomes the target of a fan whoâs obsessed with Jaxon. Now she needs to know that Jaxon has her back . . . because he already has her heart.

âHey,â I squealed, waving my hand in the air. I was so happy my brother would finally get to meet Jack.
He walked toward me with a smile, but when he caught sight of Jack, that smile turned into an all-out heated glare. âWhat the fuck are you doing here?â he growled, quickening his pace.
Jack froze and gripped my arm, grumbling, âShit,â before pulling me around to face him. âBristol, listen to me. This isnât how I wanted you to find out.â
Everything was happening so fast, I didnât know what to think. âFind out what?â I asked desperately.
Before he could reply, Ryan ripped me out of Jackâs hold and pushed him away. Jaw tense, Jack was ready to fight, but I couldnât let that happen. âRyan, stop!â I shouted, digging my nails in his shoulder.
Jerking his head around, he glared straight at me. âDo you even know who this cocksucker is? Heâs playing you to get back at me.â
I threw my hands in the air. âWhat the hell are you talking about? How do you even know him?â
Jackâs eyes never left mine, the anguish on his face making me sicker by the second. I had a feeling I wasnât going to like what came out of Ryanâs mouth. He scoffed incredulously and spat at Jack. âHeâs Jaxon fucking Reed, the asshole on the team Iâve been telling you about. Donât tell me you didnât know?â

Jack stepped forward, but then again, that wasnât his name. It was Jaxon Reed.

AUTHOR BIO
New York Times and USA Today bestselling author L. P. Dover is a southern belle living in North Carolina with her husband and two beautiful girls. Before she began her literary journey she worked in periodontics, enjoying the wonderment of dental surgeries.
She loves to write, but she also loves to play tennis, go on mountain hikes and white water rafting, and has a passion for singing. Her two youngest fans expect a concert each and every night before bedtime, usually Christmas carols.
Dover has written countless novels, including her Forever Fae series, the Second Chances series, the Gloves Off series, the Armed & Dangerous series, the Royal Shifters series, and her standalone novel Love, Lies, and Deception. Her favorite genre to read and write is romantic suspense, but if she got to choose a setting in which to live, it would be with her faeries in the Land of the Fae.
