Oakwood Ranch

In high school, he broke her heart-now he's the famous football player whose image she's meant to clear. Game on.

NFL superstar Jake Sullivan's playboy reputation is finally catching up with him. To keep his sponsors happy, he needs to wipe the slate clean-and fast. He's never backed away from a challenge, so he's confident he can charm the hotshot city journalist sent to write a glowing piece on him without revealing the real reason behind his behavior.

Harper Cassidy is determined to show the world the real Jake. The one who broke her teenage heart. Pulling up to his (admittedly idyllic) family ranch, Harper steels herself for his ridicule once he realizes who she is. But when his stormy dark eyes and stupidly handsome face give nothing away, her blood boils. He doesn't even remember her! Her boss wants her feature to convince people he's a good guy. Yeah, right.

They would both rather be anywhere else, but for the next five weeks they're stuck with each other. So why does Harper's heart flutter when Jake offers up his sweatshirt and their hands accidentally brush? Why can't Jake resist taking Harper to places he's never shown anyone? And stranger still: supposed playboy Jake hasn't glanced at a single woman since Harper arrived in his spare room...

They both came into this game determined to win. But somewhere along the way, the rules have started to change...

An enemies-to-lovers forced proximity sports and cowboy romance, Score to Settle is perfect for fans of Stephanie Archer, Liz Tomforde and Elsie Silver. The first in the Oakwood Ranch series, it can also be read as a standalone.
