Chasing Headlines When a disgraced baseball player and an ambitious sports reporter cross paths at Texas State Tech, neither expects the other to become their biggest distraction—or their greatest ally. Breslin's clinging to his last shot at redemption while Liv's determined to break free from her father's shadow and prove herself as a journalist, but their explosive chemistry and competing ambitions keep pulling them into each other's orbit. As Liv digs deeper into Breslin's story, she discovers there's so much more beneath his brooding exterior, and he finds that maybe letting someone in isn't the career disaster he feared. Prepare for sass, tension, and the kind of enemies-to-lovers spark that'll leave you desperate for book two!
