Tyson Palmer was a star football player. He had everything going for him and one of the best arms of a quarterback. Tyson's one big problem he was addicted to pain killers. One night while sitting in a bar he comes across an old friend from high school. Dani is a commentator for football. Of course, Tyson at first doesn't recognize her. Dani has always had a huge crush on Tyson. One things leads to another and they go home together. Fast forward a few months. Tyson is not getting any better. One day he is kidnapped. The man who is behind this is a big fan of his and also owns a football team. He gives Tyson a choice. He can go to rehab, get clean and he will be given a job as the quarterback of his team. At first of course Tyson wants nothing to do with this, but then decides he needs to do this. In the meantime, Dani has reached the level that she wants as a commentator. Her next assignment is to go with Marcus and cover his every move. Little does she know that the team he is now going to play for is the one that Tyson is the quarterback? As much as Dani hates to leave her son, she knows that she must do this to advance her career. After all these years she and Tyson meet up again. Dani is very cool to him and Tyson can't figure out why. Until he realizes what happened between them several years ago. Can Dani and Tyson both get their TOTAL PACKAGE? I truly enjoy Stephanie Evanovich's books. Each one is as great as the previous book. While Stephanie in TOTAL PACKAGE combines football and romance, what more could a girl want. There are a few little secrets in this book. One by one they come out. But they are not bad secrets, good ones. One of them I never saw coming. I feel when Stephanie writes her books she really does put in a lot of research. This to me is a sign of a good writer. Who would want to read a book that doesn't make sense? If you are looking for a book which is a fast read and really gets you hooked from the start, THE TOTAL PACKAGE is your book.

SUMMARY

The New York Times bestselling author of Big Girl Panties is back with a funny, sweet, and sizzling novel about love, redemption, and second chances. Heartthrob star quarterback Tyson Palmer has it all: a million-dollar arm, a winning season and the promise of a Superbowl ring. But more importantly, football’s biggest star is the ultimate comeback kid. After an addiction to painkillers nearly derailed his career, Tyson got sober and went from zero to hero in the eyes of the public. But one person remains unconvinced: Dani Carr, a sports commentator with high ratings and following of her own. Dani can’t forgive Tyson’s transgressions or forget a single passionate night with him back in college. To make things worse, Tyson doesn’t realize that the bombshell with huge ratings is the cute co-ed whose heart he once broke. But can a sports journalist trying to claw her way to the top and a quarterback who knows all about rock bottom make it to the Super Bowl without destroying each other? And what will happen when Tyson—riding high now that he’s revived his career—realizes he needs to make an even more important comeback with Dani? Can he use his million- dollar moves to get past her defenses—or will she sideline him for good? Stephanie Evanovich is a full-fledged Jersey girl from Asbury Park and the New York Times bestselling author of Big Girl Panties and The Sweet Spot.
