A novel by

 
 

Trading in my shoulder pads and football cleats for work boots and rustic living on the Second Chance Ranch was easy compared to convincing the sassy and sexy real estate broker that I wanted her for more than her clients' land.

Most people don’t know who my family is—was.
And I’ve refused to cash in on my trust fund.
Until I couldn’t.
With both my grandfather and mother gone, their questionably earned fortune has recently rolled over to nine zeroes and is now under my control.

Even more unexpected is finding out who my real father is and the brothers I never knew existed.
New family secrets play out, but the most important goal remains: showing Kelee Johansson I’m more than the retired football player, product spokesperson, and mislabeled womanizer the public thinks they knew.

I’m Archer King.
I’ve led a team to a Super Bowl and my company to the Fortune 500.
And I’m not above using whatever it takes to win Kelee’s trust—and her love.
Hell, I’m not above begging.
It might even be fun.

But will the discovery of my brothers and the danger that follows them ruin my chances with the only woman I’ve ever loved?

Hi, I’m Kelee and I have something to say about all of…that.
Okay, ahem.

Sure, he’s handsome, and he gets bonus points for intelligence and his new purpose is noble, but that won’t change my mind about relationships.
Why? Because thanks to my parents' codependency, I’m immune.
However, he thinks he can woo me or whatever.
But…something
has changed since our first meeting two years ago.

Okay, I’ll admit, his lame attempts at humor and charm are kinda, maybe, sorta working?
Like I’d ever tell him.
Please. Don’t. Tell. Him.
It would only encourage him.
And an encouraged Archer?
Is a lethal Archer.

Ugh, why him? Why now? But…*sigh* maybe, why not?
