I'm the starting quarterback for the Portland Pirates, and I have a thing for my son's teacher. Except I didn't know the cute blond on the beach with the giant dog was, in fact, my kid's teacher until two months later at Open House.
Christian took my breath away during the second week of my two-week vacation at the beach and introduced me to things I never knew could feel so good and be so right. I think he just might be the one who inspires me to tell the world that this NFL quarterback is bisexual and in love with a man.
That is until I blew the best thing to happen to me since my kids were born. All I know is I have to get him back. I had to find a way to keep him.
Christian
I never imagined I would meet the love of my life while being bowled over on the beach by the overeager Newfoundland I was dog-sitting. But that's exactly how I ended up on my back in the sand, wrapped in his arms and pressed into the sand by the six-foot-five dark-haired Adonis on the beach. Did I mention he had two beautiful children?
Our week together was worthy of a sexy modern-day fairytale full of promises about the future until he sent me the text that broke my heart. And how was I supposed to get over him when his adorable six-year-old son was in my class?
Find out how Alex and Christian ache to overcome some daunting complications to reunite in The Quarterback Keeper, Book One of The Package Deal Series.

Review: ⟫ Not the most auspicious beginning to my reading in July.
I tried to read this – I kept trying to read this. I cannot even imagine just how many times I picked up my kindle and turned to this book. It either sent me to sleep or I got so bored that I was reading pages and realising that I was taking absolutely none of it in.
I wasn’t even going to leave a review because I felt guilty for the fact that I simply did not like this book. The characters were flat and uninteresting; the writing felt formulaic and uninspired, and no matter how much I loved the idea of the storyline, it just didn’t pull me in.
I couldn’t even explain what went wrong – it takes a lot for me not to finish a book – but this just left me completely cold. I am considering seeing if there are other books by these authors to see if it was just the collaboration between them that didn’t work for me because I want to give them both a fair shot.
Ultimately, I didn’t finish reading and for what I did read, I can only score this a 1/5.
