Emory Olsen is traded to the Blue Devils in Chicago and due to false accusations finds himself in a marriage of convenience with the ex-stripper, Scottie Monroe, who tired to black mail him to help her brother. They both think that this will be just for a year and then they will break clean both getting what they wanted but lets be honest.... lol
Scottie has a heart of gold! She is so selfless and everything she does is in the goodness of her heart. I am so glad that Emory could see this. These two both were what you see on the outside is not what you necessarily get. Emory was so caring and endearing to Scottie. I want to say this was a "he falls first" but I honestly think they fell at the same time. I loved Scottie's attitude toward Emory. The banter between these two was funny at time. Emory had patience. Boy, did he but when the line between we shouldn't but we should broke... they had chemistry in the sheets!
Also, enjoyed how Ford and Taytum popped up and it was good to see kind of what they were up to! Also, the new characters, players of the Blue Devils were introduced and Rhodes, the captain who can't keep a nanny. I am ready for him ;)
