Smart, awkward, and never quite fitting into the mold of the typical athlete, Isaiah has a secret longing for connection, especially with Ava Moore, the marketing genius who works behind the scenes for his team. Ava, fresh out of an explosive breakup with her temperamental ex, Trey, is navigating the emotional fallout of her relationship ending.
But one night, fueled by the heat of celebration and a few too many drinks, Isaiah and Ava cross a line that changes everything. What starts as an innocent moment of passion quickly spirals into something neither of them anticipated-a pregnancy. While Ava initially believes her ex is the father, the truth reveals a much more complicated situation. Isaiah, harboring feelings for Ava, may have had his own reasons for letting the night unfold the way it did.
As the pregnancy threatens to upend both their lives, Ava and Isaiah are forced to confront not only their growing attraction but also the secrets and choices that could tear them apart-or bring them closer than ever before.
The second book in the series will be released soon..... Ava story continues !
