Dylan Crawford has her hands full as a sports physiotherapist. On the surface she's a workaholic with little to no friends who never finds time to enjoy the freedom of being a 26-year-old newly single woman living in Chicago.
Being forced to work with fallen football star, Lake Decker, was the last thing she ever wanted. He's perfection in physical form and tempting to throw her off her own game. Confident and cocky, his moody, broody, know-it-all attitude has her biting her tongue to do whatever it takes to support her secrets.
Secrets that the infatuated Lake finds himself wanting to unravel.
