Sports doctor and physical therapist Dr. Zoey Howard didn't want the spoiled and egotistical Yazair Bryant, star running back for the Philadelphia Stallions, as her patient. One thing she could not stand were egotistical sports figures. Because of Yazair's severe knee injury, Zoey was called in to get him back in shape and ready for the upcoming season. On their first meeting, she was not surprised he was hosting a party at ten o'clock in the morning. It didn't matter to her. She was here to do her job, and she was going to do it regardless of what Mr. Yazair Bryant thought.

After scheduling a weekend meet and greet, he knew his work would be cut out for him in convincing her that he was the best sport’s agent to represent her brother. But, Satch wasn’t prepared for that "ooh-wee" moment, when he laid eyes upon her. She nearly brought him to his knees and knocked his socks off with her beauty and slamming brick-house body. Would he have her eating out of his hands like the “special four” or would she introduce him to her best friend, Bertha.
Ishaan wasn’t about to step aside and let some “smooth operator” take advantage of her big-little brother. So, this Mr. Big-Time, Satch Howard, with all his smooth talking, would have to prove himself worthy of her trust before being removed from her watch list.

Would Satch’s undeniable charm and virility cool her jets or would he fly off into the wild-blue-yonder with the “special four” as his co-pilots?
