The Player by Shauna Allen

Everything I touch turns to gold.

The all-consuming drive to win flows through my veins like fire, igniting the champion in me.
As the star running back for the San Antonio Spartans, I’ve got it all—the stats, the endorsements, the notoriety. Or I did, before I got cocky and flew too close to the sun.
Burned and broken, I crash-landed right at Vanessa Martin’s feet.
The most intriguing woman I’ve ever met. Zero façade, the way she lives her truth is irresistible. Especially to a man who has made a life by hiding my own.
She overwhelms me. Irritates me. Makes me see myself through her eyes . . . even though all she sees is a baller who doesn’t belong in her world.
The question is, can this golden boy be what a woman like her needs and win the most important game of all?
My name is Camden Creed.
I am the Player.
