Blurb:
Meet Graham Tettersaw, former star quarterback. He blew his first shot at success, but now he has a second chance at playing football . . . and at having a life.
Graham’s not about to squander this new opportunity with a rising team. No way. They’re about to make his dreams come true, even If they did just add a weird clause that he’s supposed to pretend some random chick is his girlfriend.
Whatever.
Teams can be weird about stuff. But Graham can play along. After all, it’s all about forward progress.
In football, getting the ball down the field and scoring is goal number one. Life isn’t all that much different. That’s why Graham is hoping to do some scoring of his own off the field. Especially when he finds out the pretend girlfriend the team has picked out for him, Eden Vetterly, is beyond hot.
But it’s not all about sex.
Graham really likes Eden.
And she likes him too—a lot.
Too bad the team just changed all the rules.
Forward Progress is the first book in the new Men of Fall series, where football meets romance.

My Review:
πππππ
First I have to say that this book really took me on a roller coaster ride because there were so many things going on for both main characters that at first I wasn't going to read it but after I got a few chapters in I was hooked and I am so glad I finished this book because it was amazing! I just couldn't imagine a team putting stipulations on their players but this author pulled it off and had me hooked wondering what was going to happen next.
Eden is working hard trying to take care of her family when she is offered an offer of a lifetime. All she has to do is live and pretend she is the quarterbacks girlfriend. This is easy and for what she is getting paid she can do it. Only when she meets the quarterback Graham she is thrown for a loop and as time goes by she starts to fall for Graham for real.
Graham is all for the stipulation in his contract as long as he can play he does not care. Then he meets Eden and he starts to have real feelings for her and his mind is changed but he has to follow the contract in order to play so he and Eden keep their real feelings hidden from everyone. Will these two ever be able to come out and be a real relationship or will they be held to their contracts?

Excerpt:
“You want me to do what?”
Irritated, I grab a water from the mini-fridge, take a swig, and slam the bottle down on the table in the middle of the living room of the hotel suite I’m in.
“You’re fucking crazy, Jock,” I sneer.
“It wasn’t my idea, Graham,” he replies, unfazed by my outburst as he sits quietly on the sofa. “I told you the added stipulation in the new contract the Comets are offering was completely new to me too.”
“It’s fucking loco is what it is,” I grumble.
It’s true. This latest development in contract negotiations is truly nuts. They want me to pretend to have a fake girlfriend.
Are they off their rockers?
“How’s this even supposed to work?” I ask.
“We’re hammering out the details.”
“Great. Do I at least get to meet this mystery woman before I sign?”
“No. There’s no time for that. You will meet her, though, before the season begins.”
“Whatever,” I huff. “I can’t believe I’m supposed to pretend to be dating a girl I’ve never even seen. To top it off, I get to meet her just once, then I’m expected to act as if we’re in a serious relationship.”
“Pretty much,” Jock confirms.
This is bad, but there’s something more I’m struggling with—I’m supposed to also fucking move in with this pretend girlfriend.
Could it get any worse?
