Ilya is a hot, bad-boy soccer star with a career-destroying reputation. He has been blacklisted for his aggressive behavior. Quinn is the trainer hired to get him back into the game he loves, but Ilya is disillusioned and mistrustful of everyone.

The first time Quinn sees Ilya, he is gut-punched by lust. The graceful, athletic Ilya attracts him as no other ever has, but to reach him, Quinn must break through the arrogant, cold persona Ilya wears. When they finally give in to their desire, the walls come down and Ilya bares his soul to the man he has come to trust and love. Quinn has found his heart's desire, but he might lose everything if Ilya chooses to sign with a team on the other side of the country.
