The Windy City isn’t quite ready for Phoebe Somerville—the outrageous, curvaceous New York knockout who has just inherited the Chicago Stars football team. And Phoebe is definitely not ready for the Stars’ head coach, former gridiron legend Dan Calebow, a sexist jock taskmaster with a one-track mind. Calebow is everything Phoebe abhors. And the sexy new boss is everything Dan despises—a meddling … despises—a meddling bimbo who doesn’t know a pigskin from a pitcher’s mound.
So why is Dan drawn to the shameless sexpot like a heat-seeking missile? And why does the coach’s good ol’ boy charm leave cosmopolitan Phoebe feeling awkward, tongue-tied . . . and ready to fight?
The sexy, heartwarming, and hilarious “prequel” to This Heart of Mine—Susan Elizabeth Phillips’s New York Times bestselling blockbuster—It Had To Be You is an enchanting story of two stubborn people who believe in playing for keeps.

Her books are entertaining and humorous and fun to read…love her breezy style
Always enjoy her books.
I have read this and every other book in this series and all the other books by this author. I rate them all 5 star because they are all wonderfully written and it’s obvious Ms Philips is a gifted wordsmith who cares about the quality of her writing. Each time time one of her books is released I can’t wait to acquire it and am anxiously awaiting …
Fun read.
First in a fun series
This classic isn’t a great read looking at it with today’s lense. The main hero almost assaults the heroine in a case of mistaken identity as part of a sexual game, and it’s brushed aside very quickly and moves into some steamy, let’s have sex and forget I triggered memories of you being assaulted as a child. This left me with a very bad taste in …
I recently discovered Susan Elizabeth Phillips, and I’ve been losing sleep ever since (as in, I’m up reading all freakin’ night!). I’ve enjoyed all her books so far, but this one has a special place in my heart. I loved seeing sweet, vulnerable, sexy Phoebe overcome her sad past; I loved watching tough Coach Calebow slowly realize what he’s …
Susan’s books are always entertaining and interesting. Have read and thoroughly enjoyed every one of them!
Loved this book! Loved the characters
Love all her books
I have collected all Ms Phillips books, I think she’s a wonderful author with a really great imagination. Her characters are memorable and so are the plots. I like that she does books in a series & a lot of the same characters show up in them.
Love this author
I love all of her books!
One of the first books of Susan Elizabeth Phillips I’ve read. I’m hooked! She is one of my all-time favorite authors.
Ms. Phippips at her usual best!
Like other books by Phillips, this very funny romance features a pair of opposites who eventually figure out that they complete each other. Somehow the author makes a highly unlikely scenario utterly believable. Terrific read.
One of my all time favorite book and series! Susan E Phillips is absolutely the best at what she does!!!
This was my First Susan Elizabeth Phillips book, and I loved it. I mean the chapters are slow but the book does pick up as you move on through the book, and when it tarted to pick up I started to enjoy it a lot. It a slow romance, but I’m a fan of football, I think that why it appealed to me more because I understood all the football things in it, …
