Performed by Nicole Poole.Brett Rivers is the hottest sports agent in the business, fast and furious, swift and deadly. Failure? Not an option. Rory Garrett is, let's be honest, a disaster. She has a big heart, an empty bank account, a passion for making exquisite chocolate, and a huge inferiority complex from living in the shadow of Brett's most important client, her football legend brother. Brett and Rory should never have met, and they absolutely, positively should never have had to deal with the consequences of one stupid, drunken night, one disastrous lie, one career in jeopardy, one missing football player, and a very dead body. It's going to get messy, and dangerous, and heartbreaking, and sexy. To Rory, Brett represents skewed values and a devious mind. To Brett, Rory is forbidden fruit, off limits, do not disturb, and no entry, definitely no entry. A woman who has succeeded at nothing and a man who's succeeded at everything confront the challenge of their lives as they struggle with themselves and each other. When it comes to love, what price are any of us willing to pay to be simply the best?title from container.
