Mia Clarke, a professional cheerleader and physical therapist, has her life carefully planned: by night, she's the confident face of the NFL sidelines, and by day, she works diligently as a physical therapist. But when a stray football from NFL quarterback Wesley Carter leaves her concussed and in the public eye alongside him-her well-ordered life starts to fall apart while falling in love.

Revenge. I'm familiar with it. You have to be when you're the firstborn son of a notorious mafia leader. Death and vengeance have been the very foundations of my life. So who in their fucking mind would be stupid enough to cross me? My brother and I have been wrongfully convicted of a crime we didn't commit. We know who is behind this. We bid our time behind bars, planned and prepared for the day we got out. Now we're free and hungry for redemption. I know what must be done. I know whose blood will be spilled. But before I go after him, I'll go after his daughter. I never said I play fair. *Book one in the Marino Brothers Duet. Rated 18+ due to explicit language, sex, and violence.*
