The Fool’s Gold Series - Book 14
Before We Kiss
“The second in this summer’s back-to-back-to-back trilogy focuses on ex-football player Sam Ridge, whose previous marriage was a disaster and whose parents are hilariously uncensored when it comes to all things sex-related. Mallery’s latest hero’s track record makes him the epitome of ‘once burned, twice shy,’ but that means readers have more fun watching him fall in love. A quintessential Mallery pleaser!”

New York Times bestselling sensation Susan Mallery returns to Fool's Gold, California, where it's true that sometimes you have to kiss a few frogs…
Former pro-football kicker Sam Ridge has notoriously bad luck with women—from cheaters to fame chasers. Still, the gorgeous brunette at the bar in Fool's Gold looks harmless—until she takes him home and he discovers a room devoted to securing a man, for life.
Dellina Hopkins never guessed that storing gowns from a friend's bridal boutique would chase away her first and only fling. After her parents died, she skipped her "wild youth" to raise her sisters. She doesn't want forever from Sam, but one night—all night—would've been nice.
His clean getaway gets messy when his firm hires Dellina to plan an event. As long hours lead to late nights, the two succumb to temptation again. Has Sam's luck finally changed? Or this time, will Dellina be the one to run?
