Struggling through the heat of rehab and the ache of isolation, she meets Celina, a fiercely alluring woman whose tattoos hide a past just as scarred as Juju's knee. What starts as late-night conversations and stolen glances soon ignites into a love that's as intoxicating as it is dangerous-proving that sometimes the greatest comeback isn't on the court, but in the heart.
