Sinners Series by Lynn Shurr (#01-5) [wee_wiwie]

1. Goals For a Sinner: Unlucky in love, sports photographer Stevie Dowd has given up on men on order to concentrate on her goal of getting a cover shot for a prestigious sports magazine. Connor Riley, wide receiver for the New Orleans Sinners, has remained celibate all season to strengthen his game for a Super Bowl victory. Their goals collide, literally, when Connor bowls over Stevie on the sidelines as she attempts to get her perfect picture. Realizing Stevie is the woman he had a crush on in high school, Connor feels his vow is about to be broken. Can he win both the Super Bowl and Stevie Dowd?

2. Wish for a Sinner: A Superbowl star quarterback wonders-is there more to life than sex and football?
Joe Dean Billodeaux, womanizing star quarterback for the New Orleans Sinners, thinks maybe, just maybe, he should be looking for a more wholesome sort of woman than the ones who signed his list for sex after his season of celibacy ended. The first that comes to mind is the little Wish Lady, Nellwyn Abbott, who helps fulfill the dreams of critically ill children. His friends agree that Nell, a child psychologist, is exactly what Joe Dean needs and do all they can to bring the two together. But is Nell willing to take on Joe Dean with all his little problems and teach him that there is more to life than sex and football?

3. Kicks for a Sinner: Can the world's nicest Sinner win the heart of a rebellious redhead?
Redhead Cassie Thomas is all grown up and certain she is in love with Joe Dean Billodeaux, star quarterback for the Sinners and adoptive father to the son she gave away at birth.
Joe only wants to expand his family with his wife, Nell, and deflect Cassie's advances that threaten his marriage. So, why not set Cassie up with the Sinners new kicker and possibly the world's nicest guy, Howard Howdy McCoy? Cassie sees through Joe's attempt and insults Howdy, telling him he is not a real football player and possibly even gay.
Howdy knows neither is the case. Regarding Cassie to be as challenging as a sixty-yard field goal, he sets out to prove her wrong even if that involves a personal makeover and a tough new attitude. But, will he be able to convince a woman who believes she can love only bad boys to give a nice guy a chance?

4. Love Letter for a Sinner: Joe Dean Billodeaux, star quarterback for the New Orleans Sinners, faces forty and his last season of football with difficulty. A young quarterback, Rex Worthy, waits on the bench to take over, and a rapacious film star, Layla Devlin, wants to start an affair with Joe. When his wife, Nell, warns her off, the actress sets her sights on Rex, a self-proclaimed virgin.
But Rex looks right past the glamorous Layla to her beleaguered assistant, Tricia Welles, who puts up with the star's abuse to pay her mother's medical bills. She is the woman with the loving heart Rex has been seeking, but convincing her of that is another matter. Layla's anger at being rejected by both men turns to rage. She plots revenge as the men play in Joe's last Super Bowl. Some will win and some will lose in the game of love.

5. Paradise for a Sinner: Jilted by his Island Princess fiance, Samoan cornerback Adam Malala seeks advice about women from his happily married, Sinners' quarterback, Joe Dean Billodeaux. But, Joe is preoccupied by two children who have showed up on his doorstep. Adam finds his own solution by applying the island maxim, "the best cure for a lost love is a new one." He sets his sights on the newly divorced Winnie Green, a nurse who has come to help with the children.
Winnie has always planned ahead and done what her family expects but free from an unhappy marriage, she is ready for a wild fling with Adam. When they travel to Samoa, she soon realizes Adam and his culture are far more complicated than she suspected. When Adam is accused of a terrible crime, she must use her outsider ways to prove his innocence.
Misunderstandings plague their relationship and all seems lost. Will a moonlit beach, a romantic dance and promise of commitment be enough to bring them back together?
