Theyβre not on the same page in the playbook...
When Anya Fisher is asked to be the maid of honor in her best friendβs wedding, she jumps at the chance to go to Santa Fe. Thereβs nothing left for her in Atlantaβexcept a bitter and controlling almost-ex husband. Starting over as an online personal shopper is challenging, but not as much as having to plan wedding festivities with uptight groomsman Josiah Walker...
As a Santa Fe Bobcats running back, Josiah wants to make his mark on the field, not on the earth. A serious conservationist, heβs all about saving energy. So why is he wasting so much on the flighty fashionista in his best friendβs wedding? One kiss leads to anotherβand more. But when Josiah discovers that Anya has just as much substance as style, their harmless little fling may go into overtime...

This is not my first book my Ms. Murray, but it is the first book in the Santa Fe Bobcats series that Iβve read and I really enjoyed it. Even though Romancing the Running Back is the 4th in a series, it is easy to read on its own.
In Romancing the Running Back, we follow Anya and Josiah as they move from antagonism, to friends, to lovers while they help their friends plan a wedding. Anya has several other things going on that prompted her visit to Santa Fe to be more like a relocation and those complications eventually cause problems for her with Josiah.
I enjoyed these two characters and their quirks. They were fun to get to know and it was a treat to see their relationship progress. One of my favorite things was the fact that when Anyaβs past caught up to her and threw a wrench into things, Josiah didnβt go stomping off to be mad, he sat down with her and talked about it.
The supporting cast was fun and added color and humor to the story. If you have followed the Santa Fe Bobcats series, you will enjoy seeing glimpses of characters from the prior three books and catching up with where they are now. If you are new to Ms. Murrayβs work, this would be a fun book to start with. Itβs a quick read and definitely worth the time.
