An Essence® Bestselling Author -- Born into a real-estate dynasty, Brandt Wainwright chose football over the family business, and now he's a Super Bowl MVP. That streak of good luck runs out the day Brandt crashes his SUV into a tree. During the long recuperation, the fun-loving quarterback becomes cranky and sullen -- until private nurse Ciara Dennison shows up for duty. Ciara has zero interest in sports, or in jocks with overblown egos. But somehow Brandt keeps breaking down her defenses.
