You know the hot neighbor boy you crushed on all your teenage years? Imagine seeing him ten years later and he turns out to be a complete jerk, then you know how I feel. Our last encounter was awkward, given I’d climbed into his bedroom window to turn my unrequited crush into something ... requited. That day was bad enough, but things just got worse. Noah Griffin turned himself into one of the best football players in the country and a transfer to the Washington Wolves— the team I work for—lands him on my doorstep. The timing couldn't be worse, because my boss just handed me the opportunity of a lifetime. And that promotion rides squarely on Noah's big, muscular, condescending shoulders. He wants nothing to do with me, and the feeling is so very mutual. But for the sake of my career, I can ignore all those things about him that drive me insane. His eyes. His mouth. His big, big … hands. Until one day, we can’t ignore them anymore. You know what they say about the line between love and hate though? They’re so very right.

Molly Ward isn’t the sixteen year old girl with a massive, unrequited crush on her next door neighbor anymore. She’s got a successful career with her big brother’s football team, her sisters she adores, a well now a chance for a promotion. The catch, she’ll be dealing with Noah Griffin, the Wolves’ newest trade and said object of her high-school fantasies. No big deal, right?
Noah Griffin is football, he doesn’t just play it. Known as “The Machine” he doesn’t date, has a very limited social life, and hasn’t since Molly Ward climbed through his window and nearly ruined everything. After a misunderstanding gets him traded to his hometown team and Molly is forced back into his life through their jobs, everything in Noah’s life starts to shift.
I’ve been so excited to read this book since Karla Sorensen announced we were getting books for the Ward sisters. Molly is fierce and ambitious and an amazing heroine. And Noah! He was definitely a jerk, but as he thawed he easily became one of my favorites.
Sport’s Romances (especially football ones) are my all time favorite tropes and this one was perfect. Molly and Noah’s love story ticked all my boxes and I can’t wait to do a re-read!
