Playing the Blindside
(2024)(The first book in the Southern Mavericks Rugby League series)
A novel by Kenna Shaw Reed
He still loved her and fought for a second chance – right up until the press blindsided him with her secret
Randii
And just like that, my secret is out.
The press love to hate me. I’m the woman with a past, the woman who has been loved by rockstars, and sportsmen. Well, only one footballer, and even when I walked out the door, I knew Dawson Briggs was the only man I’ve truly loved, and the only man I will ever love.
He deserves better. He’s got a second chance at the career he loves, and I love him too much to hold him back.
But when he discovers my secret, will he remember how much he loved me? Or will he spend every cent taking away the one person I love more than him?
Dawson
They say the opposite of love is hate.
She says she didn’t leave me for her ex and his kid, and I believe her.
She says she wants what’s best for me and my career, and I believe her.
She says she never meant to fall pregnant, and the child is mine. Even if I believe her, there’s no way in hell I can love her enough to forgive her.
I want my child and the mother is optional. At least, that’s what I���m trying to tell my heart.
Playing the Blindside is a second chance, secret baby, sports romance filled with passion undone by miscommunication and misunderstanding. It can be read stand-alone, has no cheating or cliffhangers, and has the HEA that sports hero, Dawson, and former groupie, Randii, deserve.
Genre: Romance
