He's the star running back with a possessive streak. I'm the small-town girl who just wanted to sell dog tutus. Falling for him? Not part of the game plan.

After fleeing to Nashville to escape my past, romance wasn't on my radar. Especially not with Micah Freeman—the impossibly hot NFL superstar. Laughing gas and my social media queen roommate mix one night, and suddenly, I'm going viral for claiming Micah Freeman is my husband. Funny, right? Well, apparently, he ran with it because the next thing I know, he's storming into my life like he owns it.

Now he's showing up at my pet boutique demanding I go on a date with him, and making it very clear he won't take no for an answer. Micah's used to getting what he wants on and off the field. And what he wants now, is me. He's intense. Protective. Possessive.

As our worlds collide—NFL fame, skyrocketing business sales, and a relationship born from chaos—can we survive the spotlight, my past, and his all-consuming feelings? One thing's for sure…this isn't just a game anymore.
