Playing Games (Unabridged‪)‬

Dickson University’s star quarterback and campus golden boy is used to winning on and off the field…until he meets the one woman who changes the game.


Blake Boden is the ultimate distraction—annoyingly handsome, enigmatic, and confident enough to make my teeth grind.


He’s the kind of guy who could charm anyone with a single smile, and somehow, I’ve become his latest challenge.


Only, I don’t do challenges—and I don’t do love. Emotions? Just chemical reactions. Distractions? Not on my agenda.


But he has a stubborn streak that won’t leave me alone, and I have a dissertation due at the end of the semester on computer-assisted research that I could put to the test a little more.


I’ll analyze his charm, track my reactions, and prove once and for all that attraction is nothing but science…and love is a mere figment of the imagination.


Hypothesis: Time with Blake Boden is purely scientific.

Conclusion: He’s not just breaking my rules—he’s rewriting them.
