USA Today bestselling author Danielle Allen is back with the first book in her hot new sports romance series, where love isn't just win or go home; it's win or lose everything.

Nova Thomas was one of the best athletic trainers in the country. When she noticed Defensive Tackle Jay Channing moving differently on the field, she offered him some advice.

That did not go well.

The rude exchange left her speechless so Nova decided to confront him.

And that made things worse.

But when an injury took Jay out for the season, he knew he needed the best for his recovery if he was going to reclaim his spot on the team. And Nova was up for the challenge. Soon, between the late nights and private sessions, it was impossible to keep their feelings hidden or their desires tamed.

But there are strict policies that forbade a player and trainer from crossing the line. Nova and Jay were professionals and would not risk their careers.

Would they?
