Having lost the shifter he believed to be his only chance at a finding a life-mate, he grouched his way through each day trying to hold together the pieces of his shattered existence. Until… Deanna ‘DK’ Madkins was starting over. She’d done the mating thing. It failed when she was unable to give her mate the prize he coveted—progeny. After setting him aside, she left the pack of her birth. Her life would be away from shifters and she was fine with that. When she moved to small town just beyond the borders of the Central Valley Pack’s lands, she thought she’d found the place for her solitary happily ever after. Until… Circumstances bring the two together, and the sparks which ensue may be more than either is willing or able to handle. Can they find what they didn’t think they would ever have again? What happens when a gruff widowered shifter and a formerly mated she wolf crash into each other? Can they find themselves together? Can love be reclaimed?

Pages : 532
Book Description
“An ambitious, remarkably frank” chronicle of the Philadelphia Eagles’ bid for the NFL championship by the #1 New York Times–bestselling author (Kirkus Reviews). In 1992, the Philadelphia Eagles—a team assembled in the image of their iconoclastic, controversial former head coach, Buddy Ryan—were known for their ferocious defense led by Reggie White, Seth Joyner, and Andre Waters, and for the otherworldly talents of quarterback Randall Cunningham. Now was the time for the Eagles’ campaign for the championship. But as the season progressed, it disintegrated into an ugly flurry of greed, racism, violence, personal and professional feuds, one tragic death, and a very wild face-off in the stands between a player’s wife and mistress. By midseason, the sentiment of both fans and press was the same: “shut up and play.” Told through the personal stories of the teammates themselves, as well as the coaches, managers and owner, Bringing the Heat spares nothing—and no one—in “a phenomenal feat of reportage, perfect for football fans coast to coast” (H. G. Bissinger, author of Friday Night Lights). “Overflows with stories of pro football dreams, of bravery in the face of injury. Yet it also unflinchingly tells of the darker side of life in the NFL: uncontrollable egos, ruined families, marital infidelity.” —The New York Times Book Review “There are now four mandatory books on football: Dan Jenkins’s Semi-Tough; George Plimpton’s Paper Lion; H. G. Bissinger’s Friday Night Lights, and the hilarious, incorrigible son of them all, Mark Bowden’s Bringing the Heat.” —Michael Bamberger, Sports Illustrated
