He needs a win...

Prince Manu of Avali has one goal - to secure a championship that will honour his late friend. Too bad he's stuck in the worst team in the league. He's got a plan though - finish the season, reestablish his reputation as a great player, and get back to a winning team. Anything else is just a distraction.

She can't afford to lose...

Clare Trescott has six weeks to turn on the charm, impress her skeptical boss, and win the promotion she's been chasing for years. A promotion that would give her the security the former foster kid desperately wants. There's only one problem - her boss wants a team player and Clare doesn't play well with others. She needs someone to coach her in people-pleasing.

When Manu and Clare end up reluctant roommates, it's the perfect opportunity for Clare to learn how to become the ultimate teammate from a pro. But as their lessons become more meaningful they start to learn that hearts don't follow a game plan...

A snarky scientist. A driven athlete. Lifelong goals on the line. And an irresistible attraction that might ruin it all.
