Swayed by the Safety
(2027)(The third book in the Tennessee Thunder Football series)
A novel by Savannah Scott
I built a career protecting the end zone. Protecting her heart is another story.
After years of being the safety for the Tennessee Thunder, I'm in a position where I don't really need more money or a mansion. And I sure don't need my grandmother's African grey parrot.
But here I am ... the heir to it all.
My grandma had one dying wish---to see me find love. If I’m not married within the next two months, I can’t claim my inheritance. No one in my family will get a penny. It all goes to the parrot.
Yep. The parrot.
So, I'm here on Marbella Island, walking down the beach at night, trying to sort myself out.
I'm not looking for a wife.
I bump into this woman, Syd, who just went through a breakup—one that has her swearing off men for good. We end up talking until the wee hours of the morning.
One thing leads to another and we end up married … you know, as two people do after knowing each other for less than twenty-four hours.
We agree our arrangement is just on paper, to help me gain control of the estate.
In a few months, we’ll get divorced and go our own ways.
That’s the plan. Foolproof. Simple. Harmless.
We figured out every detail.
There’s only one hitch. I never expected to fall for my wife.
Swayed by the Safety is a standalone closed-door romcom, and the third book in the Tennessee Thunder Football trilogy—three laugh-out-loud love stories with kisses that will make your heart do a touchdown dance.
