Martha Winston is a renown sports writer in her own right. Unexpectedly, she inherits a Pro soccer team when her father dies. On his death bed she promises him it will always stay in the family. But the team falls apart and she is in financial ruin. Tony Branch is a British ex-soccer star who wants to add the Thunder to his empire of revamped teams and to make his mark in the American leagues. He is used to contoling everyone and everything, and usually stops at nothing to get what he wants and will use "everything" to get it.This is the third book in the Philadelpia Patriots series and I was very disappointed. The plots were excellent but got swept under by the many, tedious, explicit sex scenes. I understand how the writer was trying to get across the power, manipulating and control each used to get what they wanted, but it got to be too much. For me it took away from the story lines. In the two previous books, Martha was a strong, independent, head-stong, confident woman. By the end of this book, she was needy and indesive about everything and just gave up. I felt the dialogue between characters was sappy and over dramatic. I felt language was too vulgar and an insult to professionals and the British. I can't believe that they really speak that way to one another in real life. At least not to that magnitude. I got so caught up in the interview with Colton and how all that was going to play out with Martha, Colton and Ginny. And then at the end of the book, it was past tense and totally skipped over. I felt like I was robbed. I much rather have read about that then where and what positions the two main characters were doing it. I love a good, hot, romantic book. For me, this just wasn't it. Also, whoever put this book on Kindle really needs to proof read better too. Alot of bad typo's and sentence mistakes.
