Former professional football player and coach Duncan “Hatch” Hatcher fumbled his career and marriage. Now divorced and ready to tackle his future, he has an opportunity to redeem himself as coach of his college alma mater’s football team. But how can he turn the team’s losing streak around and keep the secret of his downfall buried when the school agrees to a documentary that will allow a lovely journalist to dig her way into his past…and into his heart?

Olivia Grant’s ex-husband almost wrecked her journalism career while he definitely did a number on her self-esteem. The documentary on Duncan Hatcher is the perfect way to rebuild both. As a freshman in college, she’d had a crush on the senior football hero, but he hadn’t known she existed. She never expects the sparks that fly between them as they work on the project nor the struggles they must face if they both want to win.

Top Ten Tuesday: Quotes about Dogs

Hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl

Welcome to Top Ten Tuesday!  This week’s topic is quotes fitting a particular theme.  I absolutely love dogs, so I decided to browse Goodreads in search of quotes about dogs.  Let’s get to the list!

“Happiness is a warm puppy” -Charles M. Schulz

“A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself.” -Josh Billings

“All his life he tried to be a good person. Many times, however, he failed.  For after all, he was only human. He wasn’t a dog.” –Charles M. Schulz

“The dog is the most faithful of animals and would be much esteemed were it not so common. Our Lord God has made His greatest gifts the commonest.” –Martin Luther

“Once you have had a wonderful dog, a life without one, is a life diminished.” –Dean Koontz

This is my dog Cannoli when she was a puppy.

“Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole.” –Roger Caras

“Petting, scratching, and cuddling a dog could be as soothing to the mind and heart as deep meditation and almost as good for the soul as prayer.” –Dean Koontz

“Dogs do speak, but only to those who know how to listen.”- Orhan Pamuk

“The greatest pleasure of a dog is that you may make a fool of yourself with him, and not only will he not scold you, but he will make a fool of himself, too.” –Samuel Butler

“Dogs’ lives are too short. Their only fault, really.” –Agnes Sligh Turnbull
