Striker Sport Entertainment CEO has put his best agents Shaw & Cassidy together to sign the up and coming football star Denver Rockford. The agents who signs the superstar is rewarded the open partnership position as a bonus. Sports Agent, Shaw Matthews plays to win and he intents to snag the coveted partnership at San Diego's hottest sports agency. Fellow Sports Agent, Cassidy Whalen has worked hard to make a name for herself in a man's arena. Shaw & Cassidy are the best of the best, but have never been going head to head for the same client. To say that there is no love lost between them is a huge understatement. Both of them share the same secret.....they fantasize about the other. Shaw believes that he has what is takes to beat Cassidy and get the partnership promotion. When meeting with Rockford and his family, Shaw realizes that he has seriously underestimated Cassidy, as she embraces Rockford's mother like a long lost friend of the family. However, the more Shaw has of Cassidy, he can't seem to get her out of his system. His craving for her only gets more intense and his feelings begins to grow. Knowing he can't afford to lose the partnership, his focus begins to slip and cloud his judgement....which lands him and Rockford in a Las Vegas jail and a lot of bad publicity. Instead of calling someone to bail him out, he calls Cassidy. Out of jail, Shaw continues his plan to seduce Cassidy and getting Rockford to sign on with him and his plan for more money. However, Rockford has an idea of what he wants and needs in his future. When Rockford announces his plans for the agent he sees himself working with, Cassidy gets an emergency call from home that has her leaving the sports entertainment business & friends behind without any real explanations or when or if she will be back. When Shaw hears of Cassidy's drop and run, his only instinct is tyo chase her down. But how far will he go to find her to talk to her.....apparently that's 3,000 miles away. And that is where it leaves off. Author C. L. Parker knows how to leave the reader wanting more! I loved this story! C.L. Parker puts so much into her writing, that her novels don't need any fillers included. Mrs. Parker writes intense storylines that anyone can relate to. Her characters are complex, with long and sometimes turbulent pasts that they have overcome, that still continues to affect their present. I loved A Million Guilty Pleasure and A Million Guilty Secrets. I was excited to get a chance to review something new from C. L. Parker and I wasn't disappointed! C. L. Parker will continue to be one of my favorite authors. I love her writing style. I can not wait to see where she takes this new series when Book two is released in November of 2015.
