Drew Anderson is a superstar. An icon. The face of the Golden City Flames.
Or at least that’s who the world thinks he is.
But after failing a drug test last season in a desperate attempt to live up to his image, Drew realized he didn’t want to be that guy anymore. The problem is, he's not sure who he is without the noise. And the only person who’s ever truly seen him is the mystery girl he spent one unforgettable night with last year. The one who wouldn’t even tell him her name.
Brooke Larkin is bold, independent, and completely uninterested in settling down—no matter what her mother says.
But when her closest friends start building lives without her, Brooke starts to cave, questioning where she fits in. The first step she makes toward putting down roots is finding a job she can finally turn into a career. Filling in as the social media manager for the Flames seems like the perfect opportunity... until she comes face-to-face with the team’s star player. The sexy, irresistible, and much younger guy she never expected to interact with again.
He hasn’t forgotten her.
And worse—he’s not letting her forget him, either.
But the more Drew breaks through Brooke's defenses, the more he calls her out for putting on a facade of her own.
Can two people so use to hiding find something real together?
Or will the masks they wear keep them from the only person who sees who they truly are?
