Description
"The queen of the football romance is not Taylor Swift. It's Susan Elizabeth Phillips."—Wall Street Journal
From #1 New York Times bestselling author Susan Elizabeth Phillips, a romance between a star quarterback and one of the country’s most beautiful—and misunderstood—actresses.
After a mortifying—and very public—humiliation, Dancy Flynn is desperate to find sanctuary far from the crowd. But where can a washed-up sex symbol hide? How about making an unannounced appearance at the secluded lake house of the sweet, sensitive high school boyfriend she hasn’t seen in almost twenty years?
But Chicago Stars quarterback Clint Garrett is no longer the kid Dancy remembers. Now he’s a gridiron superhero, still holding a massive grudge against her for breaking his teenage heart. With no room in his life for either complexity or distractions, he banishes Dancy to a refurbished old railroad caboose tucked away in the woods…and out of his sight.
Except Dancy’s not good at staying invisible. Her efforts to rebuild her career clash with Clint’s desperation to regain his focus, all made more challenging by a rescue dog, a local woman in trouble, a meddling mother, an ex with an agenda…and the sizzle of rekindled emotions.
As Dancy attempts to get her life on track and Clint tries to get his groove back, can these two one-time lovers navigate their rocky pasts and complicated present to find themselves…and each other?

5By Pegasus VanGloriusGreat book!The Crowd Went Wild, as did the reader
5By becplantsGreat read. Love all of her books. From the first page to the last Susan Elizabeth Phillip is an excellent author.SEP never disappoints
5By BozBearOnce again, I’m in love. Now, in addition to a Gypsy caravan, I desperately need a boxcar (and the property for it all 😁). My only complaint is, Susan absolutely ruins me for other authors and other stories. Her characters are alive and relatable and people I want in my life. She creates characters and settings and storylines like no other. I love you, SEP!! ❤️💕
