Rough Ride by Breezie Bennett

Andre Smoke is the newest arrival to the Riders, an incredibly private defensive player who is feared and revered in the NFL. His trade to South Florida is a little unexpected in the league, but Smoke has his personal reasons for heading to the tropics to play football. Well, one reason. Her name is Kendall Collins and her big brother, Smoke’s lifelong best friend, needs someone he can trust to keep an eye on her…without her knowing it, of course.
Loyal and protective, Smoke agrees…but one look at Kendall and things get a little complicated. The sassy designer is definitely not the awkward fourteen-year-old in braces that he remembers, and the attraction between them burns as hot as his name. Smoke hires Kendall to renovate his historic Miami home…but the plan to keep an eye on her soon turns into a desire to keep his whole body on her. Before long, Smoke is falling hard for his best friend’s sister who is determined to fix more than his house…she’s getting awfully close to his damaged heart and just might have to give it to her.
