Personal Foul by Beth D. Carter

Kaiden Demay has messed up for the last time. He’s an NFL player, and for the past year, he’s fallen into a hole of self-destruction. Tired of his drunken antics, the owner of the team invokes the morality clause in his contract to release him as a free agent.
His last hope is a new team forming in St. Louis. He’ll do anything to make sure he keeps playing the game he loves, even getting a fake girlfriend to sway public opinion.
Romilly is instantly smitten with the big, muscular man. Thrilled when he asks her for a date. Little by little, she falls for him, thinking he feels the same way. Then she discovers that they were nothing more than a lie.

Or were they?
