Falling for the one woman who has the power to end my football career was never part of the
plan . . .
This was supposed to be Cole Valor’s record-breaking season.
Instead, the star quarterback can’t seem to find his game. Missed throws. Bad reads. And
someone is making a fortune betting against him.
When suspicious betting patterns surrounding his performance raise red flags, the NFL assigns
its top integrity investigator to determine if its golden boy is the victim . . . or the mastermind.
Dublin Locke has built her career on facts, not feelings. She’s determined to follow the evidence
wherever it leads, even if it points back to the man whose kiss she’s never forgotten.
The deeper Dublin digs, the more the evidence points to Cole. Yet he insists on helping her
uncover the truth. Is he proving his innocence . . . or trying to throw her off his trail?
Working side by side as the investigation tightens its grip, the line between professional and
personal begins to blur—and every stolen kiss pushes them further over a line neither of them
can afford to cross.
Because every instinct tells Dublin to keep her distance.
But the more she falls for him, the harder it becomes to know which to believe—the facts . . . or
her heart.
