Brody Janik is your tropical cocky football player. He had
everything going for him and now is getting ready to sign
an extension with his super bowl team. Only one problem is
getting in his way -- he is a borderline diabetic. Brody
knows that if the team finds out he probably will not get
the extension.
Shannon Evert is trying to finish her PhD. Shannon works
several jobs, just to pay for her college degree. Shannon
takes a job with the Blaze, which just happens to be the
team that Brody plays for. Her job will also be to get
inside information for a blogger trying to get information
on the team.
Shannon's PhD is in nutrition. After sneaking into the
locker room of the Blaze, she finds out that Brody may be a
diabetic. Shannon is not happy trying to get info on the
team especially after she finds out this info. Shannon
confronts Brody and agrees to help him keep this secret and
to help him keep his sugar problem under control.
The more time that the two spend together, they realize that
they have an attraction to each other. Shannon makes his
meals and snacks to that he gets just the right amount of
sugar a day. However, the blogger gets a hold of this info
and now they are both playing a risking game.
Brody offers Shannon a challenge. Play his girlfriend keep
his secret and he won't let on to anyone that she was for
a short time helping the secret blogger. Meanwhile,
the Blaze and several other teams are trying very hard to
find out who the blogger is. Brody has just started to
trust Shannon, when someone lets it leak out that she is
working for the
blogger.
Shannon is very upset when this is reveled even though she
is not the blogger. Brody is even more upset because he
trusted her with his secret and now it is out.
So the big question is who really is the blogger is and now
this has become a RISKY GAME for all.
I really like reading RISKY GAME. Tracy Solheim combined
football along with love. Football is one of my favorite
sports to watch and I have often wondering how players meet
their mate. Tracy takes you inside the game and everything
around it, from coaches to trainers and the friendship
between the players.
SUMMARY
In the next sizzling sports romance from the author of
Foolish Games, Brody is at the top of his
game… until Shannon changes the rules. Baltimore Blaze tight end Brody Janik is a natural-born
football star. At twenty-seven, his record-breaking athletic
performance and his cover-boy good looks have turned him
into a household name. But Brody’s hiding a major secret
behind his charming public persona: a health condition that
may cut his career short. PhD candidate Shannon “Shay” Everett works multiple jobs to
put herself through school—including an unpaid internship
with the Blaze training department. Strapped for cash, Shay
answers the call of an NFL gossip blogger to uncover
personal details about the Blaze players. Sneaking into the
locker room one night, she gets entangled in Brody’s
secret…and swept up by his charm. Brody isn’t sure what to make of the gawky girl with the
whiskey eyes, especially when he discovers she was snooping.
His first instinct is to turn her in as a snitch, but she
could destroy him by sharing his secret. Instead, he decides
to keep her close…perhaps closer than either of them
originally intended…
