When she meets a gorgeous stranger who makes her laugh and steals her breath, it seems like the icing on the cake... Until Charlie discovers he's a client. Hutch Barlow - newly drafted wide receiver for the Oakland Raiders - looks like an avenging angel, hangs on her every word, and is completely off-limits. The trouble is he also refuses to take "no" for an answer. And if she's being honest, Charlie doesn't want him to. But seeing him means she could lose everything - including her heart. Off Limits by Kristin Vayden Everything about Ava screams off limits. To want her is to invite disaster. To pursue her is to risk my job. To kiss her might cost me my best friend. But all those risks seem small in light of the first problem. She hates me. To her I'm a sell out, choosing to advance my career rather than protect my biggest client. Her brother. And my best friend. She hasn't spoken to me in over a year, but that ends now. Because I'm done with holding back. To hell with the consequences. Wish me luck . . .
