I knew that I would do anything; sacrifice anything, to make him feel the love I'd never had. And most days, I was pretty sure I succeeded. Life hadn't always been easy. In fact, it pretty much never was. But that was fine. I had Anthony, and he had me.I was determined that he would always feel safe, loved, and cared for, even if that meant I would be alone....

Commitment.As the Quarterback of the Los Angeles Legends, football was my world.From the moment I picked up a football as a scrawny preteen, my fate was sealed. I knew that I would do anything; sacrifice anything to make my dreams come true. And I succeeded. I was considered a legend, on and off the field. Professionally, I was at the top of my game thanks to my passion and love for it. Personally, the closest to a commitment I ever wanted to make was signing the lease on my hook-up apartment, around the corner from my favorite pick-up bar. And that was month-to-month.I wasn't cut out for love, not in the romantic sense ... I knew that my first and only love would be football.Until the minute I saw Julianna Perez. And my world turned upside down. Author's Note: Playing with Attraction was originally written for Carly Phillips Dare to Love Kindle World and released as the novella Daring Attraction. We've revised, rewritten (including changing the POV), revamped, and expanded the story to a full-length novel. It is now book one in our first ever sports series. It was SO FUN revisiting this story and updating it! Cole Carson is one of our FAVORITE heroes, we think he is majorly swoon-worthy and we're so happy that his story is back and better than ever! less
