Kinsley Bennett doesn't like Tanner Thomas. Well... that's what she tells herself. As the Bananas' media whiz, Kinsley's job is to capture the perfect highlights-without letting the Party Animals' star outfielder ruin her shots. Tanner? He lives to do exactly that.

A tour bus mix-up forces Kinsley and Tanner to spend every mile together. Pranks escalate. Snacks disappear. Karaoke turns into laughter-fueled chaos. And late at night, when the stadium is silent and the stars are out, their rivalry might just be hiding something... softer, realer, impossible to ignore. When a false rumor threatens Tanner's reputation, Kinsley has to decide: keep playing the professional, sarcastic media girl... or step up and defend the guy she's been secretly falling for all along. Under the stadium lights, with fans watching, the rivalry reaches its peak-and maybe, just maybe, turns into something neither of them expected.

Y/N never planned on working for the Party Animals-especially not as the team's new athletic trainer. With a history of anxiety, toxic parents, and an ex who left scars deeper than anyone can see, the last thing she needs is a roster full of cocky ballplayers testing her patience. And then there's Noah Fisher. Number 12. Blonde hair, easy smile, and a talent for getting under her skin. To him, she's too serious. To her, he's too loud, too reckless, too Noah. They clash from day one-arguments in the dugout, sarcastic remarks, and tension thick enough to cut with a bat. But when an unexpected panic attack leaves Y/N vulnerable, Noah is the only one who notices. The only one who stays. Beneath the playful arrogance, she finds someone steady, protective, and impossible to ignore. In a world of found family, chaotic games, and unspoken wounds, enemies become something more.

Y/N has always lived life behind the lens-capturing the thrill of the game, the rush of the crowd, and the unforgettable moments no one else sees. As a sports photographer, she never expected her world to collide with Noah Bridges-star outfielder for the Savannah Bananas, #9, the player who could make the crowd roar with just one swing. But before there was the chaos of Banana Ball, there was college: late-night practices, stolen glances, and the slow, undeniable pull between two people who swore they didn't have time for love. Now, years later, everything changes in an instant when Y/N is in a devastating accident that leaves her in a coma. As Noah sits by her bedside, begging her to hold on, their story unfolds in fragments-how they met, how they fell, and why he refuses to let go. Because for Noah, love isn't just a season. It's forever.
