He’s the star quarterback with a secret that could end his career. I’m the reporter assigned to write his story. And I see everything.
Jaxson Thorne is Blackwood University’s golden boy, but his perfect image is a lie held together by athletic tape and desperation. My dream is to be an investigative journalist, not a glorified cheerleader. But when I’m forced to write a puff piece on the campus king, I uncover a secret injury that could destroy him.
Every interview is a battle, every shared glance a risk. He thinks I’m a threat. I think he’s a cliché. But the man beneath the helmet is more broken—and more captivating—than I ever imagined. We’re locked in a dangerous game where the lines between enemies and lovers blur with every heated exchange.
He’s playing for his future. I’m writing for mine. But when the truth comes out, will it be the story that makes my career, or the one that breaks us both?
