HAYTER

There was only supposed to be hatred between them. Rivalry. War on the football field.

But when a single video goes viral, the entire NFL suddenly starts telling a story that should never have existed.

Ryder Hayes is the face of the Ravens: arrogant, brilliant, and dangerously good at keeping people at a distance. Jace Carter, meanwhile, is the Wolves' golden boy - charming, controlled, and the only person capable of getting under Ryder's skin.

After a late-night encounter at the Midnight Diner, the internet explodes. Fans dissect every movement, every touch, every glance between the two star players. One of the league's biggest rivalries suddenly turns into a media obsession. The NFL sees millions. The public wants a love story.

And then the league gives them an ultimatum:

Play along.
Or lose everything.

Suddenly, Ryder and Jace are forced to pretend to be in love for the world while still trying to destroy each other on the field. But the longer the cameras stay fixed on them, the more dangerous one question becomes:

What if none of this is fake anymore?

An intense sports romance about rivalry, fame, control - and two people who get under each other's skin long before they're ready to admit it.
