About this book
After two years of pouring her heart into being the invisible backbone of a superstar football player's life—managing his home, his schedule, his everything—Vanessa finally walks away to pursue her own dreams. But when the notoriously cold and demanding Aiden Graves shows up at her door desperate to get her back, she realizes the aloof athlete who never spared her a kind word might have been hiding something all along. What unfolds is a slow-burn romance that peels back layers of stoic pride and guarded hearts as these two learn what it means to truly see each other. This is the kind of swoon-worthy sports romance that makes you believe in the power of patience and the magic that happens when someone finally lets you in.
