Avery Chamberlin is fresh out of a toxic marriage and trying to put her life back together
one step at a time.
Hired as the new play-by-play commentator for the Green Bay Bobcats, Avery is excited
to start this next chapter. The only downfall—her ex-boyfriend plays for the team.
Connor Smith is the Bobcats’ enforcer and if there’s one thing he’s good at, it’s
protecting the people he cares about.
After a run-in at the hospital, Connor discovers Avery is struggling to afford the tests she
needs to finally get some answers about her health. He’s determined to help. She’s
dead set on not accepting it.
With nowhere else to turn, Avery finally says “yes.” Literally.
Their marriage may be fake and temporary, but Connor is ready to win back the only girl
who has ever owned his heart.
Avery may not think it’s real, but the more time they spend together, the more she
realizes the feelings she thought disappeared years ago never quite faded.
Their past may be messy, but the future is as bright as the stars.
And if there’s one thing Connor is going to do, it’s defend her heart until the end of time.
