I think small town romances are my absolute favorites … at least, until I open the next book ๐

Blurb:
For five years, PA Cecilia Morganโs entire existence has revolved around playing โleft tackleโ to former NFL quarterback Wade Carter. Sheโs so good at her job, the man canโt even buy his own condoms! Well, today sheโs giving the Worst-Boss-Ever her notice.
To say CCโs announcement was a bombshell is an insult to bombs. And horribly timed, with his publisher breathing down his neck. Not too many things defy Wade Carter. Wellโฆexcept his mother. His PA. And the blinking cursor of doom.
Time to call an audible.
CC is gobsmacked. Three months in his small hometownโsomewhere devoid of โfemale distractions,โ he saysโwhile he finishes his book, and heโll cut her loose?! And he thinks a cowboy hat and dimpled smile and sheโll just say yes? Penalty flag.
Wade canโt believe CC and the council arranged busloads of single women to visit their dying town. She never gives up. But three Super Bowl rings prove heโs no quitter, either.
But then their fighting starts to feel a whole lot like foreplay. Whatโs a quarterback to do when he realizes he might be falling for his left tackle?
Time to throw a Hail Mary.

Excerpt:
โIโm staying and you canโt stop me.โ
Of course she couldnโt โ it was his freaking island – but it didnโt mean she wasnโt going to keep trying to convince him. โSeriously? What about your work? Donโt you have other ecosystems to ruin?โ
He chuckled. Who knew that near naked man chuckling while holding a bunny could be a whole other level of sexy above just plain near naked man holding a bunny. โI have a phone, the internet and a 2 IC. Iโm sure weโll manage for a few weeks.โ
โFour weeks. Four.โ
This was what she was worried about. What if he tried to constantly hurry them or get them off the island before theyโd found homes for all the rabbits? These things took time and the island was a good base to run the re-homing project considering sparsity of nearby shelters.
There were some wildlife carers in the Doak area who had been lined up to take on any kits and their mothers but the nearest shelter was the ABL one in Denver, over a two hour drive away.
The rabbits were all going to have to go to there anyway for neutering โ the ABL desexed all their rabbits before re-homing them โ but Gus wanted as many of the adoptable rabbits to be allocated to families before they left the island.
โSorry, sorry, yes.โ He held up his hands to placate her. โI was just approximating. Donโt worry, my company can do without me for four weeks. So…โ He shrugged one shoulder. โIโm all yours.โ
Gusโs gaze was drawn to the movement and the way Ramboโs little twitchy nose was a millimeter or two away from Marshallโs nipple. Annoyed at her apparent weakness where he was concerned, she threw him a glare. She really hadnโt wanted to mention what happened last night but he was leaving her no choice.
โLet me guess. Youโre thinking if you stay thereโll be more of what happened last night, right? More…kissing? Maybe a lot more than that?โ
He grinned bigger. โIt was a pretty amazing kiss.โ
Gus wasnโt about to go into the merits of the kiss. They both knew itโd been hotter than a steam bath in the Bijou. She needed to dismiss it, to neutralize itโs power. โSo?โ She lifted a shoulder. โWe have chemistry.โ
โYeah.โ He nodded, his gaze intent. โWe do.โ
โBut guess what, Marshall? Weโre adults. We donโt have to be slaves to biology. We just say no.โ
โNo?โ He gave her an incredulous look that totally called bullshit on that. โReally?โ
โYes. Really. This isnโt the set of Love Island, Marshall.โ
A sexy half laugh slid from his lips. โWell thatโs a relief.โ
Gus pursed her lips. Right. Of course. Evil Elmer with his sexy rough hands was just like all the other guys who wanted to bag, brag and move on.
โItโs not Sex Island, either.โ
He regarded her for long moments, stroking Rambo rhythmically. Gus was pretty sure she could see a little trickle of rabbit drool pooling in the corner of his mouth. Clearly Rambo was also a fan of those big, thick, rough fingers.
โAre you going to tell the bunnies or am I?โ
โThe bunnies are slaves to biology. They get a pass.โ
โLucky bunnies.โ
โWhatโs the matter, Marshall?โ she demanded. โCanโt keep your libido in check for four lousy weeks?โ
His cocked eyebrow mocked her a little. โCan you?โ
Considering she regularly went months without sex, Gus was crazy confident on that score. โI have a black belt in libido control.โ
โWell now,โ he murmured. โThat is a shame.โ
โIs there a reason youโre obfuscating?โ
He laughed. โWell clearly to hear you say that word for one.โ
โMarshall.โ Gusโs patience was hanging by a thread.
โOkay, okay.โ He held up his hand in a placatory gesture. โI can control myself for four weeks. Just to clarify, though, this doesnโt involve sex with ourselves, right?โ
Gus had not been expecting that question and the image it put in her head took her by storm. Sheโd already seen his cock, seen the way he cupped himself. How much more exciting would it be to watch that big hand of his sliding up and down, pleasuring himself? Getting himself off.
Masturbating.
Gus shut her eyes and tried to erase the picture from her mind. When she opened them again, he was watching her, a broad grin stretched across his face. โYouโre thinking about it, arenโt you?โ
Ignoring his question she threw him a nonchalant look. โYou can have as much sex with yourself as you like. Do we have a deal?โ
He looked like he was going to continue to find ways to obfuscate some more for a moment but then he sighed and said, โFine. No kissing. No sex.โ
Relief flowed like cool water through her veins as she raised her coffee mug to him in salute. โThank you.โ
