He swore he’d never fall.
She was running out of time.
Maddox Knox doesn’t do commitment—not after growing up in a house where love sounded like shouting through closed doors. Baseball is the only thing that’s ever made sense—steady, predictable, safe.
Maddox has never had a problem getting attention, especially from women. But the one who caught his eye at a crowded New York bar didn’t recognize him…or pretended not to. She called him a walking stereotype and walked away before he could even ask her name.
He can’t stop thinking about her. And when she shows up days later as the team’s new photographer, Maddox realizes he’s in more trouble than he thought.
Beneath her calm smile and sharp tongue, Harper Blake is unraveling. Her ex-boyfriend—once a promising ballplayer—vanished after falling deep into gambling debt, and the men he owed are coming for her next. She’s barely keeping her head above water, taking any job she can find, praying no one notices the fear she carries like a shadow.
But Maddox notices.
And the more he learns, the more he’s willing to risk to keep her safe—even if it means crossing foul lines that could destroy his career. Because the game changes the moment you fall for someone who has everything to lose.
Genre: Romance
