New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today bestselling author Carly Phillips scores a fake-dating touchdown in this spicy sports romance.

Daisy Donovan has her career mapped out: make the Nevada Panthers look amazing as head of the NFL team’s PR, and then put in her bid to become the team’s assistant general manager when the current AGM retires. Sure, her dad owns the team, but she’s not a shoo-in for the job—she knows she needs to prove herself. But when Daisy’s drink is drugged while she’s out celebrating her thirtieth birthday, her carefully constructed “good girl” image begins to shatter.

Maverick Weston, the Panthers’ star tight end, is no stranger to scandal. The team’s PR manager has had to work double time to keep his public image out of the gutter, thanks to a few opportunistic female fans. When Maverick notices Daisy’s in trouble at the club, he steps in to help her before something bad happens. But all the tabloids see is the bad boy of football carrying an unconscious woman into his apartment building.

The photos are everywhere, and the consequences are clear: Daisy’s father wants to trade the troublesome Maverick to another team, and now Daisy will never be taken seriously for the AGM job. Not unless Daisy and Maverick can convince the world—and Daisy’s dad—that they’re a real couple. But what starts as a harmless fib to protect their careers soon has them risking everything—including their hearts.

Perfect for fans of Tessa Bailey and Lauren Blakely, If We Kiss will give spicy sports romance readers a happy ending to cheer for!
