Safe. Loved. Protected.


As a single mom, my son was my world.

From the moment I gave birth to Anthony when I was just a scared teenager, my fate was sealed. I knew that I would do anything; sacrifice anything, to make him feel the love I’d never had. And most days, I was pretty sure I succeeded. Life hadn’t always been easy. In fact, it pretty much never was. But that was fine. I had Anthony, and he had me.

I was determined that he would always feel safe, loved, and cared for, even if that meant I would be alone.... I knew that the only person my son and I could depend on was the person I saw in the mirror.

Until the day I met Cole Carson. And everything changed.

Passion. Love. Commitment.

As the Quarterback of the Los Angeles Legends, football was my world.

From the moment I picked up a football as a scrawny preteen, my fate was sealed. I knew that I would do anything; sacrifice anything to make my dreams come true. And I succeeded. I was considered a legend, on and off the field. Professionally, I was at the top of my game thanks to my passion and love for it. Personally, the closest to a commitment I ever wanted to make was signing the lease on my hook-up apartment, around the corner from my favorite pick-up bar. And that was month-to-month.

I wasn’t cut out for love, not in the romantic sense … I knew that my first and only love would be football.

Until the minute I saw Julianna Perez. And my world turned upside down
