Star quarterback for our high school team, I was at the top of my game. Everyone wanted a piece of me. Except the one person I wanted to give all of me to.
Straight-A student and swim champion, Melinda Shepard had no interest in me or my football glory—or my dating rep sheet. A few years ago, we’d been friends, but that relationship went up in flames before we had time to really get to know each other. When her life is at risk one night and I’m the only one there to care for her, I’m finally back into the friendship zone. Years later, our chemistry is still undeniable and that attraction between us is still burning. Even though my heart belongs to her and I’m pretty sure hers is mine too, Melinda is trying to keep me at arm’s length, hiding a life-threatening secret from me, one that could ruin her—and put in jeopardy our blooming relationship too.
Now that truths are being exposed and feelings are being hurt, our friendship may be the only thing salvageable. Until an unexpected new challenge complicates our new reality. Never had I imagined that falling in love with the girl of my dreams would turn out to be the hardest play of my life, and the one that would change me forever.
As pain, lies, and unsaid words mixed together, can we find our way back to each other and explore the attraction we share, or is our love story doomed from the start?
