Melanie Woods is used to being invisible.
The forgotten girl.
The overlooked assistant.
The one who works twice as hard and still gets half the credit.
As a physiotherapist, she spends her days fixing other people's problems while quietly carrying her own. She doesn't have time for distractions, especially not for arrogant volleyball stars who think a smile can solve everything.
Especially not Rowen Miller.
Captain of the city's top volleyball team.
The golden boy everyone loves.
The guy who's always been everyone's first choice.
Everyone wants him.
The problem?
Melanie doesn't.
She rolls her eyes at his jokes.
Ignores his flirting.
And treats him like he's nothing special.
For the first time in his life, Rowen has no idea how to win.
But the more Melanie pushes him away, the closer he wants to get.
Because behind her walls is a girl who never asks for help.
A girl who's spent her entire life surviving on her own.
A girl worth fighting for.
As friendship turns into lingering glances, jealousy, late-night conversations, and feelings neither of them saw coming, Rowen realizes something terrifying:
This isn't a game he can afford to lose.
