Wrecking Ball
by P. Dangelico
Cam DeSantis’ life is a mess.
How else would you describe losing your husband, your job, and your money all at once?
Desperate times call for desperate measures.
So when salvation comes in the form of one intolerable jerk, who just happens to be the starting quarterback for the vaunted New York Titans, she has no choice but to accept his offer as a live-in nanny slash teacher for his eight year old nephew.
Now all she has to do is find a way to ignore him for the next three months.
Which is harder said than done.
***
Calvin Shaw has zero interest in women.
Wait, wait––let me rephrase that. He loves women, he just doesn’t want anything to do with ‘um.
What he needs to do is focus on winning another Super Bowl before he retires.
Problem is, the woman living in his house is a major distraction.
And he doesn’t know what’s worse, that he promised to be civil, or that he’s attracted to her.
