Happy BOOK BIRTHDAY to... FIRST AND FOREVER by Lynn Painter!

🏈... utterly irresistible romantic comedy about a football star and his team’s die-hard fan who find themselves entangled in a PR stunt that only one of them knows is fake... 🏟



🎈 Happy BOOK BIRTHDAY to author Lynn Painter as FIRST AND FOREVER makes its debut via Berkley Publishing Group/Penguin Randomhouse πŸ₯³

πŸ† I don't know about you, but I'm a sucker for the tropes this one is running first string! Fake dating (even if it's only one-sided, hello plot twist!), kinda sorta enemies to lovers, and I may not play sports or watch sports, but I'll definitely dive feet first into a sports romance! πŸ˜‰

ABOUT THE BOOK...

Duffy Distefano loves three things: her dad, the family cat, and Minneapolis Coyote football. So after she gets booed out of a game and becomes the internet’s villain following an awful encounter with the team’s beloved mascot, she is disgruntled, to put it mildly. Eager to clear the air, Duffy agrees to an interview on a hit morning show. She doesn’t expect a co-guest to join her—especially not the Coyotes’ star tight end.

When MVP Connor Cunningham gets tasked with damage control to help his team out of a PR nightmare, he finds himself in a highly amusing verbal sparring match with a recently wronged fan on live TV. The interview instantly goes viral, and the public is obsessed with them. Despite his distaste for PR stunts, a strong push from the Coyotes’ PR team to ride the wave results in Connor asking Duffy out. But he quickly discovers being with Duffy is much easier than he anticipated, and somehow it doesn’t feel fake to him. This secret can only blow up, but all he knows is that if he messes things up with Duffy, it’ll be the greatest fumble of his life.

Oozing with chemistry that feels like fireworks and banter that makes you swoon, Lynn Painter delivers her signature blend of heart and humor in this love story that you won’t soon forget.
