Tanner Cole's football career was over in less than thirty seconds one Sunday afternoon. After a lifetime playing the sport he loves he's been forced into an early retirement. Between figuring out his plan for the rest of his life and dealing with the pain of his injuries, this grouchy hottie isn't in the mood for the perky physical therapist who makes him ache in more than one place.   Jordan Mueller doesn't have time for a sulky ex-NFL player, even one who looks like Tanner. She's done with falling for the bad boy without a heart. When she's forced out of her apartment and offered an opportunity too good to pass up, she agrees to move in with Tanner. She's only there to speed up his recovery. No funny business, even if her body is telling her otherwise.   As Tanner and Jordan spend more and more time together, they begin to see each other in a new light that threatens to change everything. But when the ghosts of girlfriends past reappear, Tanner must decide if he's willing to put everything on the line for a shot at a future with Jordan.
