After Dark — Bette Ford

THEY WERE ON OPPOSING TEAMS
From the moment she met him at an exclusive Detroit restaurant, Taylor Hendricks knew Donald Williams was far from ordinary. The basketball superstar and prominent businessman was tall, commanding, and too gorgeous to be true; his black eyes sparkled with humor and his mahogany brown skin made her breath catch in her throat. But the down-to-earth beauty knew he also symbolized everything she was determined to protect her brother from--the lure of fame, easy wealth and excesses of all kinds.

...UNTIL LOVE ENTERED THE GAME
When Donald first approached Taylor's table, it was simply to say hello to young Scott Hendricks, a talented basketball player and top NBA draft choice. Scott's stunning sister wasn't part of the game plan. Nor was she like any woman he had ever known. She wasn't the least bit impressed by his money or celebrity. But Donald was impressed--and determined to show Taylor how wrong she was about him. The game had begun--a bold, winner-takes-all contest in which the only victor would be love.
