Gideon Maynard is football royalty. Generations of his family have played the game, owned the teams, run the leagues . . . and so it's no surprise that Gideon is the starting quarterback and star player for the Richmond Rebels. But underneath his aloof yet drool-worthy exterior, he's nursing a bruised and skittish heart.

Sarah Jenkins swore off dating athletes years ago. She's completely committed to her career in politics and public relations and to life as a single woman, and that's the way she likes it, thank you very much.

When the two meet through friends, the attraction is instant and undeniable, but both Gideon and Sarah are smart enough to know that a relationship isn't in the cards for them. Slowly, though, they find a way to friendship . . . and eventually, to something even deeper.

But just as playing football takes more than talent and hard work, a lasting love requires more than steamy nights and passionate kisses. Forever means believing in scary ideas like trust and forgiveness.

Is a happily-ever-after possible for two hurting, broken souls who are willing to risk it all for a love that won't end?
