Betsy
Ever since I was a little girl, my dream was to go to the International Games. When I discovered an aptitude for volleyball, I pursued my dream with a laser focus that left no time for the frivolous things in life, like romance.

But my heart has other ideas...
Opposites attract but when they leave the volleyball court, can these teammates find a forever love?
