They’re faking it for the cameras. But what if the sparks are real?


Graydon St. John doesn’t do drama―or public appearances. The brooding defensive end for the San Francisco Foghorns prefers silence, solitude, and avoiding headlines. But when a league-wide PR scandal forces him into a media stunt at the city zoo, he’s suddenly face-to-face with squawking birds, nosy fans, and the zookeeper who seems to hate his guts on sight.


Maple Baker loves her flamingos. Loud, pink, messy? Sure. But they’re hers. And the last thing she needs is a grumpy football player stomping into her sanctuary with a bad attitude and a bigger ego. Unfortunately, they’ve been paired for the zoo’s new public outreach program, and the cameras are already rolling.


The banter is sharp. The tension is electric. And the more they pretend to play nice for the press, the more their fake flirtation starts to feel like something dangerously real.


But when family secrets, viral fame, and a PR romance gone off-script threaten everything Maple’s worked for, Graydon must decide if he’s willing to fight for love―or let it slip away to protect her.

My Review...

For the love of flamingos! This newest story, the start of a new series, the Bay Area Players, is gonna tackle you harder than Graydon St. John!

This is the story of Maple and Graydon.

Maple is everything you want in a heroine! She is sassy, she is quirky, and her love of flamingos is nothing short of flamboyant! She is a zookeeper who fights for her flamingos hard.

Graydon is a hard nut to crack; he is rude, mean, and a downright a$$hole. But through the story, you find out why he is the way he is.

The dynamic between Maple and Graydon is going to keep you glued to the pages, and I didn’t want to put this down till the very end. The way that you see Graydon evolve into someone special for Maple is so swoony.

The secondary characters bring this story the hilarity that long-time readers love, and I cannot wait to see if OC and Bennett get their HEA’s.
