About this book

When Lenny finally decides to let go of Jonah Collins for good, he shows up and turns her carefully ordered life completely upside down—and she can't quite figure out if she's furious or relieved to see him. With years of hurt and unanswered questions between them, neither is sure if they can bridge the gap, but the pull between them is undeniable and impossibly complicated. This slow-burn second chance romance will have you swooning over two people learning that sometimes the best things in life require patience, forgiveness, and the courage to try again. If you love sports romance with emotional depth and a hero who has to work hard to earn his second chance, this one's for you!
