Hot Route by C.L. Rose

5.0

Ok this was unexpectedly wonderful. Blaze is the star football player at the height of his career, but lately he's been in a funk. He's convinced to hire an assistant to help him keep it together, and he has no idea what's about to come into his life. 

Mads is working towards her dream of working as a sports journalist, and she lands an internship in Boston to make that happen. Picking up some part time work as an assistant is perfect to make ends meet, but she never expects her new boss to be Blaze. 

Watching the two of them dance around the fact that they both want the same thing but are too afraid to admit it and change things was so, so good. They're perfect for each other in so many ways, but they just have no idea what's in store.
