Intercepted (New Hope #1)

After a career-ending injury, NFL star Mason Reeves returns to his hometown in search of new purpose. He finds his ex-girlfriend dating new men, and his teenage children want nothing to do with him. As a matter of fact, they're hellbent on making him as miserable as possible.

When Mason barrels back into her life, Mallory Robinson refuses to fall for his temporary charm or ill-kept promises.

As a recent widow with three children, she has finally found the strength to date again.

Now, Mason is back and sabotaging her love life at every turn. Not only does he want a relationship with his kids, he wants Mallory. Worse, she doesn't know how much longer she can resist him.
