Andy Shaw has a lot on his plate as a single father. When he finds work getting in the way of time with his kids, he decides it is time to bring on a partner to help shoulder the workload. He was not expecting the hottest agent in the sports world to apply, nor did he count on the sparks flying between them. 
 Danicka Douglas has worked hard for her credibility in such a male dominated field. Her career is important to her, but she knows it is time to move on from her current employment. The opening at Andy's firm is a perfect fit for her, if she can get past the very unprofessional way the boss makes her feel. 
 Having already read all the Cranberry Inn and Viper's Heart books, I was very familiar with Andy's character and the anticipation for him to find some happy was off the charts. I love his sweet nature, his focus on his kids, and the tight-knit family he has created out of his friendship with Brody. 
 This was sweeter than Viper's books, even with the background threat that underlies this plot. The threat absolutely adds tension to the story, but to me it didn't make the story any grittier than the two people falling in love allowed it to. 
 Even the Score was a quick easy read with a suspense aspect that added interest and pull. It was fun to see Andy's story after having watched his first marriage crumble and the aftermath in the previous series he appeared in.
