New York Times bestselling author Carly Phillips turns up the heat in her newest sexy contemporary romance series, and introduces you to the Dare family ... siblings shaped by a father's secrets and betrayal.

Quarterback Alex Dare had it all—an all-star football career and his choice of willing women—until injury forces him into early retirement. When he is offered a groundbreaking position with a rival team, he's intrigued, but there's a catch. He'll be working alongside the same woman he callously hurt when she got too close for comfort. Social worker Madison Evans grew up in foster homes and knows what it means to have-not. She isn't impressed by Alex Dare's wealth or charm. Not since she fell hard for him once before, only to discover she was just one of his too-easy conquests.

This time around Madison refuses to succumb to Alex so easily. But Alex wants Madison. And if there is one thing Alex does well, it's to get what he wants. Can he convince Madison to take a risk and dare to love?
