[taken from fictiondb] When strong-willed socialite Laureen Reisel inherits controlling shares in a near-bankrupt foot- ball team, she also acquires its star player, Vince DiMoro--who just happens to despise rich women. Tension crackles between them--and then Vince arrogantly declares they'll share passion's embrace after the team's first victory. She is enraged at his brazen presumption...yet all too aware of his masculine appeal. One moonlit night he reveals a charming, vulnerable side of himself she's never seen... and her defenses topple in a tumult of passion. But unless Vince can put his bitterness aside, they're doomed to replay past disasters.

Attorney Danni Price is climbing the corporate ladder by working hard, trying difficult cases, and winning. She doesn't have time to fraternize with the enemy. And Michael Sommer is most definitely the enemy. Unfortunately for her, when Michael outbid everyone for the steak dinner date with her at the Literacy Foundation Auction, she had no choice but to go. The week before, she'd won the biggest case of her career against Michael's father, and now she was forced into a date with his son. Danni saw the bid as a way of revenge. Michael, a third generation attorney, however, saw a beautiful woman with intelligence and wit. All he wanted was the steak dinner, a little company, and to donate some funds to a good cause. When the two realize they are the opposing attorneys in one of the biggest custody battles in the state, they become both rivals and allies. The problem is that romance is inadmissible, and in the end what really matters is who gets custody of their hearts
