TOUCHDOWN FOR LOVE
It’s been years since Lily’s heart was shattered by her college sweetheart and star quarterback, Tate Donaghue. Now, he’s a high-profile NFL player, and unfortunately for Lily, her latest security assignment.
For Tate, Lily left all those years ago without so much as a backward glance let alone an explanation. But pretending he’s in love with her now is easier than he’d like to admit…
With the countdown on to the biggest game in the NFL’s history and the threat level intensifying, can Lily and Tate move on from the past – or will they fumble the ball, and their relationship, when it matters most?
Tropes:
Forced Proximity
Enemies to lovers
Second chance romance
