Super Bowl Entertainment
(c) 2006 Tiffany Aaron
Blurb:
Ten years of playing pro football has gotten Donovan Klasek two bad knees, a bad shoulder and an addiction to pain killers. Now he’s free of the addiction and ready to watch his younger brother play in the Super Bowl. Donovan loves his bar, but part of him wishes he had another chance at the big game.
Johnni Aitken has always been her daddy’s girl. She can rattle off football stats with the best. When she gets a job waiting tables at Donovan’s bar, she can’t believe her luck. Football is a religion to her and Donovan has been the star in several of her fantasies. But a football star like Donovan would never look at a tomboy like her.
What happens when a man beat up by life meets a woman longing to heal his heart?
So this is my newest release. I'll be posting an excerpt a little later, but until then I'd love to hear if any of you are Sports Widows? My dh loves football and hockey. On Sundays during football season, we spend three hours in front of the tv, watching his favorite team. Which on certain days is more depressing than others...lol. Last year was awful because we didn't have any hockey to watch. :(
So let me know what your man obsesses over..whether it's sports or anything else. I'll be picking a winner from the comments for a great prize at the end of the day. don't forget to check out Dee S. Knight and Rhiannon Neeley's new release, I'm No Saint, Valentine as well.

Great story excerpt. I was a 'computer widow'until I decided to get one and join the hubby.
When we first were married friends would tell me that my dh should take the computer to bed-this way I would at least have him in bed with me. He was always on the computer researching and playing games till all hours of the night-obsessed with it he was! Now we each have one networked together in the same room - we can be together yet doing our own thing.
I'm not really a sports widow. DH will watch it on occasion, but it's never a regular thing. He listens to the college hockey game on Fridays and Saturdays via the computer, but I have shows on those nights, so it doesn't really count.
But really...we head to bed at the same time each night just to have some together time and um...other stuff *g*
I am not a sports widow (I don't have a husband or boyfriend), but I was a Sports Orphan (I don't know if that is real term..especially since it was just my dad and not my mom...LOL).
My dad LOVES sports and watches just about every sport. He wore headphones to my sister's graduation so he could listen to a game. He also wore them to her wedding, but my mom wouldn't let him walk down the aisle or wear them during the service...LOL. He also reads every word of the sports pages in the paper. It has been useful to me though...I probably know more about sports than most girls my age which will give me something to talk to guys about...LOL.
P.S. Your latest release looks great...I can't wait to read the excerpt and the book!
I am not a Sport Widow. My hubby loves to watch football but our toddler and I come first. It is one of the many things I appreciate about him. Therefore, when I can I try to be supportive and watch an occasional game with him or keep our son busy so he can watch one without alot of interruptions.
My man obsesses over me. I do nothing but sit around and look pretty. Now, it ain't all peaches and cream. Let's just say my elevator doesn't go all the way to the top...OK?!
Enjoyed the excerpt.
Yes, yes, yes, I am a sports widow! My hubby loves every sport known to man. He is either working, watching sports, or playing a sport. It's bad when he likes me better in his old football jersey than a nightie lol. Great cover, by the way!
My husband and son love to watch football. I've gotten used to Sunday afternoons being all football during the season. I just find a quiet area of the house and read.
I don't have any man now but I had a boyfriend who was obssessed with guitar and Jimi Hendrix and another over soccer.
My Jack is sports challenged. We've lived in St. Louis for over a year and saw a commercial last week for Cardinals baseball. He said, "The Cardinals play here?" When we lived in Kansas City, he was asked a question about how the Chiefs were doing, and he said he didn't know--he didn't follow baseball. And he's not kidding, folks!
If a football game is on at our house, I'm the one watching and he's the onl looking for a quiet place in the house.

Loved the excerpt...I really want to read this book!!
I'm not a sports widow - I'm a woodworking widow! Ever since my dh took up woodworking about three years ago, every spare moment goes to his hobby! He does make some really beautiful things. Neighbors, friends, and family (he's the oldest of 10) are always asking him to either fix something or make something for them. It takes up a lot of time. Thank goodness he's not into sports except for an occasional basketball game!
Great excerpt! I'd like to read more!! :)
Ok, hubby is asports zombie, so in turn I am a sports widow.
Dear hubby is the one who clutches the remote in his hand, switching from channel to channel to get a glimpse of his beloved sports contests (wrestling, football, tennis, hockey, cricket). Sometimes he just falls asleep to the sound of sports commentators murmuring in his ear.
If it is not sports then there are horror and mystery movies. He loves everything from vampires to serial killers.
Just want to bang my head against the wall when he comes to bed at 3:00 AM after watching the replays and asks me whether I am awake or not. *Grrrrrr*
