King of Diamonds (King Series #5)

When forced into close quarters, these enemies discover the real danger isn’t the clash–it’s the slow, simmering heat they never saw coming.

Reliable and determined, Jay Towlson walked away from professional football at the top of his game–or so the story goes. Now, with a newly discovered daughter and a second shot at the game he loves, Jay’s back. Not as a player, but as head coach of the struggling Sydney Hearts, a team just as desperate as he is for redemption.

Fiery and spirited, Felicity Butler doesn’t do permanence. She’s allergic to roots in the same way she’s allergic to cocky, charming, emotionally unavailable men. A jack-of-all-trades freelancer with a brain that never shuts up, Flick avoids commitment at all costs.

But fate has a sense of humour, and when Jay needs a nanny who won’t run for the hills, Felicity–with her unapologetic protectiveness and a temper like a summer storm–steps up… for the kid, of course. Not for him.

But will the King of Diamonds be able to ground his queen when the line between rivalry and romance becomes impossible to ignore?
