Scarlett O'Leary has spent years building walls-sarcasm, rebellion, and a fierce independence keeping her heart under lock and key. Love is a game she refuses to play, especially when it comes to cocky, spotlight-drenched athletes.
Ethen Steele lives for the rush of the game, the roar of the crowd, and the high of victory. Rugby is his world, and distractions-especially the kind with sharp tongues and fire in their eyes-aren't part of the plan.
But one impulsive night, one reckless kiss, and one mistake that tastes too much like temptation changes everything.
Thrown together by circumstance, bound by a chemistry neither of them can ignore, Scarlett and Ethen are about to find out that the hardest games to win are the ones played off the pitch.
And when hearts are on the line, there's no playbook to follow.

When seventeen-year-old Eabha Scanlon moves back to Ballylaggin after her father's sudden death, the last thing she wants is to start over - not in her old town, not in her old house, and definitely not at her new school, where everyone seems to know her name before she even walks through the gates. Thrown into a tight-knit group of rugby lads, sharp-tongued girls, and small-town politics, Eabha is determined to keep her head down and survive fifth year. But then there's Robbie Mac (lesser known original Boys Of Tommen character)- quiet, steady, a little broody, and very much off-limits. He's the star of the rugby team, after Johnny Kavanagh of course, the one everyone turns to, the one who sees more than he says. And he sees her - all of her. As friendship blurs into something deeper and secrets from the past begin to surface, Eabha has to decide what she's willing to risk for a future that suddenly feels possible.
