Carter I’ve spent my whole life proving people wrong. From foster homes to the football field, I clawed my way out, one yard at a time. And now? I’m on the verge of everything I’ve worked for. The draft. The NFL. The future I’ve always dreamed about. Except all I can think about… is her. Lyla Harding– my coach’s daughter. Lyla Carter Hayes is a walking headline waiting to happen. And I’m the one who’s supposed to keep his image clean. He’s infuriating. Arrogant. Impossible to ignore. And the more I tell myself he’s just another assignment… the harder it gets to pretend he isn’t everything I’ve ever wanted. Choosing him could cost me everything I’ve worked for. But staying away might break me anyway. Sports romance, Coach’s Daughter, Forbidden, He Falls First, Forced Proximity, OCD Rep, Reformed Player
