She lives in Colorado with her husband--a former NFL player who now coaches at the high school where they met--their four children, and a German shepherd. When she's not telling her kids to put their shoes on...again, you can find her catching up with her latest book boyfriend or on Pinterest pinning meals she'll probably never make. Her first book, Intercepted, was inspired by the eight years she spent as an NFL wife.

Like my friend Liv's Nordstrom discount or Marie's endless supply of cupcakes.   But now, I'm finally on their level. I have perks. The best perks possible: discounted and readily available Denver Mustangs tickets.   Sure, the parking costs a mint, the food is outrageous, and don't even get me started on the drinks . . . but I'm here! My first ever professional football game and I'm part of the Mustangs family.   My dad would've freaking loved this.   "Why'd you make us get here so early?"
