Description
When a personal trainer agrees to fake date her client, all rules are out the window in this "fun, heartfelt, and totally relatable" romantic comedy named one of the best of the year by USA Today, NPR, and Entertainment Weekly (Abby Jimenez, NYT bestselling author of Life's Too Short).

When it comes to personal training, Taylor Powell kicks serious butt. Unfortunately, her bills are piling up, rent is due, and the money situation is dire. Taylor needs more than the support of her new best friends, Samiah and London. She needs a miracle.

And Jamar Dixon might just be it. The oh-so-fine former footballer wants back into the NFL, and he wants Taylor to train him. There's just one catch--no one can know what they're doing. But when they're accidentally outed as a couple, Taylor's game plan is turned completely upside down. Is Jamar just playing to win . . . or is he playing for keeps?

An admitted sports fanatic, Farrah feeds her addiction to football by watching New Orleans Saints games on Sunday afternoons.

"A total knockout: funny, sexy, and full of heart."--Kirkus, Starred Review

"An absolute romp, packed with humor, brilliant banter, and -- of course -- sex appeal. ... The humor is first-rate, but the emotional journey is also well-crafted. Sisterhood, deep friendships, and family connections are just as important as [the] romance. ... Rochon's central love story comes through beautifully with inspiration, heart, and soul. Taylor and Jamar are magic -- they'll keep you enthralled from the start of the book to the very last word."--NPR
