Book Description
Bobby Tom Denton is a football star forced into early retirement due to an injury. Underneath his happy-go-lucky demeanor is a man who is unhappy about this major life change. To distract himself, he agrees to star in a movie -- until he finds out that Gracie Snow has been hired to "babysit" the notorious playboy. In theory, the plain-Jane Gracie won't appeal to Bobby Tom. Of course, theories have a way of being wrong.
From Gracie's perspective, taking care of a reasonably healthy man should be a breeze after spending her career caring for cantankerous elderly charges. Thanks to Bobby Tom's inability to play by the rules, Gracie is fired from her babysitting job when they show up late to the shoot; Bobby Tom convinces the production people to hire her back -- and convinces Gracie that posing as his fiancee will keep him out of trouble.
