Game On
by Tracy Solheim

The only way to win is to score...

With a reputation for fast moves on the gridiron and even faster moves off the field, Shane Devlin was a player in every sense of the word. Unfortunately, his bad-boy persona has made him a risky prospect as a quarterback, and only the Baltimore Blaze are willing to give him a chance. And he’s about to take a hit he never expected.

Working for the Blaze, Carly March knows too well how jocks think—and what they think with—so she’s always made a point of keeping them at arm’s length. But when she shares a kiss with the devilishly handsome Shane, she finds it hard to play by her own rules—and even harder to resist him.

Can a football hero and a business-minded beauty take it all the way? Or will their mutual attraction cost them the big game?



Tracy Solheim's Bio

My creative writing career started in the fourth grade when I published my first book. It was a bestseller—mainly because my dad bought all ten copies I’d made on the school’s prehistoric Xerox machine. From there, I moved to newspaper reporting with a monthly column in a local newspaper. A bachelor’s degree in journalism from the University of Tennessee landed me in Washington, DC, where I wrote reports for Congress while pursuing a Master’s degree in Legislative Affairs from The George Washington University. Aside from a brief stint in television production for NBC Sports at the Seoul Olympics, most of my early writing consisted of crafting lengthy government reports. Not exactly the most scintillating backlist, I know! My creative writing projects had to wait until I could squeeze them in between my paying gig and my family’s busy schedule.

In 2009, my first work of fiction, GAME ON, was recognized as a finalist for the prestigious Maggie Award for Excellence. The following year, my second manuscript, LESS THAN PERFECT, was a finalist in the same contest. In June, 2012, Berkley Publishing contracted with me to publish GAME ON and two additional books.

Currently, I live in Johns Creek, Georgia, with my husband, two teenagers, an aging Labrador Retriever and a pony named after a monkey. When I’m not writing, I enjoy photography, cooking, and reading—shocker, right? Be sure to friend me on Facebook or follow me on Twitter.
