Risky - Paperback

Taryn:

My life in the NFL is a dream. Paid to play ball, to hang out with my team, to travel all across the country. I have everything I ever hoped for.

Except the guts to come out.

When my boyfriend gets tired of hiding in the closet and walks out on me, I make an easy decision: no more dating until I'm through with football. These are the best years of my career, and there's no telling when retirement will hit. Head down. Focus. No regrets.

And then I wake up from a drunken night out with the team to find a new number in my phone. A Friend.

He doesn't know who I am and I don't know who he is, and having someone to talk to anonymously is freeing. He's funny and a total flirt. The first name on my phone when I wake and the last person I speak to before I fall asleep at night.

He's also the man I'm falling for.

I want to meet him, but that means revealing who I am, and as much as I want to trust him, it's still risky. Risky he'll out me. Risky someone will see us together.

I promised myself no more dating for this reason.

But he makes me want to take the risk.
