New town. New school. Same nightmare. When I lost my mom, I thought the worst was over. Moving to Sun Valley to live with a father I barely know is punishment all over again. I need to survive the year, then leave this town behind. Roman Valdez has other plans. Star receiver. King of the school. The Devil in cleats. From day one, it's his mission to ruin me. Except something about his actions doesn't add up. One moment, he's tearing me apart. The next, he's stepping in, protecting me like I belong to him. His touch burns, his words cut, and every glance pulls me deeper into a dangerous game I can't afford to lose. In a town where football is everything, Roman Valdez might be the one thing that breaks me—or the only one who can make me whole.
