An Obvious Tell Signed Copy
Maddie Thompson is trying her best to stay on the positive side of what being a newly single mom means, and let’s face it, there are only so many things you can do perfectly before you are confronted with a few hard choices. Especially ones like fleeing from your estranged ex with your son tow, to start a new life in a small town. Meeting someone new is not in the cards, but when she signs up her son for football, she can't help but become a little smitten with the ever-observant and perceptive Coach Lucas. Lucas James is tired of drama. His weekly "Dads Only" poker nights are the only reprieve, between his ex-wife Sherry and the politics that come with small-town life. With raising his son and coaching football added into the mix, finding time to meet someone seems impossible, not that he wants to anyway. Until a charming ray of sunshine steps onto the field, shaking up the poker face he's worked so hard to master. Can Maddie and Lucas leave the mistakes of their failed relationships from the past behind, long enough to create a future together? Dive into this humorous and sexy story about the realities of real life and how much it takes to move on and fall in love… whether you’re ready for it or not.

"This book has me in a CHOKEHOLD. From the first page I was completely sucked in and STAYED sucked in until the very end.
Maddie and Lucas share everything that makes fictional magic: emotional depth, sweltering chemistry, hilarious back and forth, and a plot that will have your heart on the edge of its seat. And trust me when I say, you DEFINITELY want to find out what goes down in that bakery of hers *pulls out a fan*.
I’ll be here drooling, not so patiently waiting, until the next book comes out."

"This book was witty and full of the kind of banter and angst that keeps me reading romance.
The real world feel and life like problems and outlook on the prospect of finding love after divorce was so relatable. The spice was also dream-worthy and left me blushing.
I'm always a sucker for a happy ever after and this book delivered."BE
