Strike One: My mother named me Theodore after her favorite chipmunk. Not cool, Mom. I‘ve spent most of my life answering to Teddy because I couldn’t make Theo work. Except for here. College. The place where all bets are off, and I’ve managed to redeem myself. There’s only one problem, my new roommate, Troy, is football royalty and looks like he stepped off the set of an Abercrombie shoot. Doesn’t matter, I cook a mean breakfast for his panty parade, and we get along well. And anyway, this year I got the girl. And she’s perfect. Everything's perfect...until Troy sees her.

We fell in love in a lightning strike. He knew right away, yet I was hesitant. I could have never prepared myself for a love like ours. No one could. As a child, I had conjured an amazing story in my mind. It was a story I could retell about a man who would move me like no other, a story about the way we met and how he had swept me off my feet. But the ending to that fairytale was so far from the reality. No one will want to hear that story now, but for Grant, I will always tell it.

For the last ten years, I've roamed the globe, captivated by the world around me. I've seen the seven wonders and admired sunsets from every continent. I've lived and loved, and that was enough for me. It would have to be. I was content, satisfied with my collection of experiences... until a phone call led me down a road less traveled. If I'd known my fascination would pique and be forever quenched only a few hundred miles from where my curiosity had been born, I may have never set sail.

To me, that's all Lucian Aston is—a highly sophisticated, posh Englishman who stars in my daydreams. Mostly because of the way he views me as a loud, boisterous, no-nonsense surgical nurse he's stuck touring London and Paris with up to the day of his groundbreaking surgery. Until then, we've got a lot of downtime to kill. So, it's only natural that I put my best foot forward to get to know him a little better. Problem is Lucian has no intention of taking a single step in his fancy wingtips to meet me halfway. That is until we strike our deal.

L'estate a Triple Falls è finita, e per Cecelia Horner quella che doveva essere solo una breve parentesi prima di riprendere in mano il suo destino si è rivelato il periodo più eccitante della sua vita. In pochi mesi ha imparato che nelle questioni di cuore le regole non esistono e non sempre è obbligatorio scegliere. Accantonato ogni senso di colpa, si è tuffata in un triangolo amoroso con Sean e il suo amico Dominic, che ha liberato le sue fantasie ed esaudito i desideri più inconfessabili, anche quelli che non sapeva di avere.

Manca un anno all'inizio del college, ma per Cecelia Horner il destino ha piani meno scontati. Suo padre, un industriale multimilionario e anaffettivo con cui non ha rapporti da tempo, le ha fatto un'offerta difficile da rifiutare: andare a lavorare per un periodo nella sua azienda con la prospettiva di mettere dei soldi da parte ed ereditare, prima o poi, il suo impero.

My priorities were instilled in me early on—family and football. Those ideals led me to TGU and a coach whose ironclad principles mirrored my own. With one last college season to play, my goal was singular—get drafted. By realizing my NFL dream, I could save my family, our ranch, and the only home I’d ever known. Two birds, one ball. Playing hard was my only option, but there’s always a wild card. For all of my planning and hard work, I never anticipated falling for the coach's daughter.

It started with a lie. A night of blurred lines between a teacher and a student. I wasn’t her student, yet it was the single most defining night of my life. I’ve never been the man she thinks I am. Most people have no idea about the life I’ve lived or the words that ring true when it comes to me—still waters run deep. But you’d be hard-pressed to find a coed on the TGU campus who knows otherwise…because I’ve never corrected them. The clock is ticking down, it’s Fourth and Inches with the ball inside the one-yard line and the focus is on me, The Guy on the Left.

My kids are a**holes. Yeah, I said it. I said the thing no father is supposed to say about their children, and I'll say it again because I miss my wife. Serena's checked out and now resides in "yes, dear" robot mode, complete with a new eye twitch. Reason being the impish elves we spawned are currently sucking the life out of her—daily. Thanks to Gracie and Peyton, my patience is hanging by the last orange bulb on a very thin green wire. Thank God we're headed to Triple Falls. A week of Ruby's eggnog and a little change of scenery could be just what the woman I love needs.

„Die einzige Liebe, die ich je gekannt habe, ist die, die mich krank macht – krank vor Sehnsucht, vor Lust, vor Kummer. Die Art von Liebe, die Narben und gebrochene Herzen hinterlässt.” Trotz der enormen Anziehung steht die Beziehung zwischen Tobias und Cecelia auf unstetem Grund.

Was sie nicht weiß: Tobias hat gute Gründe für sein Verhalten und diese liegen weit in der Vergangenheit verborgen.

Doch das ändert sich, als sie Sean kennenlernt.
