Skyline’s star Swedish wingback Oz Terim—or as the fans call him,
the Wizard—has an airtight plan for his life, his career, even his
meticulously renovated house, but he barely gives a thought to the
Islamic faith he inherited from his Turkish parents. So no one’s
more surprised than he is when he’s the victim of anti-Muslim hate
crime. Refusing to take the threat seriously, he resists the security
detail Skyline insists on . . . until he meets Kate Mitchell. There’s
no room for her in his plan and she’s the exact opposite of what he
wants. Then why can’t he keep his hands off her?
After
ten years in the military—and getting fired from her first
post-Army job in Saudi Arabia—Kate Mitchell has slunk home to her
Georgia roots. Private security isn’t the career she dreamed of,
nor is she thrilled to work with an uptight professional athlete who
plays a sport she has no interest in. She never expected to be
attracted to him—or for him to fall for her, too. As their opposite
lives tangle up—and the threat against Oz grows more serious—Kate
has to decide who she wants to be in life and in love.
“A
well-crafted and very enjoyable sports romance that also delves into
a timely subplot of the challenges faced by immigrants to America . .
. Crossing
Hearts delivers
an exciting and passionate read.” —allaboutromance.com

Crowley inherited
her love of romance from her mom, who taught her to at least
partially judge a book by the steaminess of its cover. She writes
contemporary romance and romantic suspense with smart heroines and
swoon-worthy heroes, and never tires of the happily-ever-after.
Having pulled up her Kansas roots to live in New York City and
London, Rebecca currently resides in Johannesburg, South Africa.
