“I’m Rogan.” He holds his hand out, but I don’t take it.

“I know who you are.”

His lips curve into a cocky grin. “You do?”

I roll my eyes. “It’s literally my job to know who all the players are.”

“Then what’s the hold up? Let’s get out of here.”

Jesus. The last thing I need is to get involved with another cocky quarterback. No matter how hot he is.

“This might be difficult for you to believe but I’m not interested in leaving with you at any point.”

“So, you have a boyfriend?”

“Nope.”

“A husband?”

“Nope.”

“A girlfriend?”

I’m tempted to say yes just to put an end to this.

“Nope.”

“Are you asexual?” he presses.

“Only when it comes to cocky football players.”

Canting his head, he studies me. “I feel like you just threw down a challenge flag, and I sure do love a good challenge.”

“That’s ironic because I feel like you’re a walkingredflag, and I avoid those like the plague.”

“But I look so good in red.”

I roll my eyes. “You’re only wasting your time.”

His lips spread into a slow smile, revealing his perfect teeth. “How could talking to you ever be considered a waste of time?”

“Because I’m not going to fall for your schtick.”

“Leave my stick out of this.” He winks.

I sigh with frustration. “That’s my cue to get back to work.”

“It was nice meeting you, Autumn. It’s always a pleasure to meet a beautiful woman.”

He walks away before I can form a reply. My eyeballs zig-zag across the muscular width of his shoulders hugged by his practice jersey.He really does look good in red.His tight pants show off his lean hips, well-muscled ass, and thighs that flex with every step he takes.

Lisa clears her throat. “Uh, Autumn?”

My focus shifts from the dangerous temptation I shouldn’t be looking at in the first place to my assistant. “Yeah?”

“We’re still filming,” she informs me.

I glance at Frankie, who has the camera aimed at me. “Shut it down.” Heat suffuses my cheeks, and it’s not from the sun beating down on me. Unfortunately, he caught that entire interaction between Rogan and me on film… and me ogling his ass as he walked away.
