It's all about the game. Until one wrong play brings her into his life.
One intercepted pass with less than a minute left in the game and Dante Kelley, star quarterback for the NFL expansion team Portland Mountain Lions, loses it all: the championship, his girlfriend, and his dignity.
When he finds an off-the-beaten-path bar to drown his sorrows, he also finds…a one-night stand.
They both walk away satisfied and with no expectations. Hell, she doesn't even know his real name. She has no idea he is a famous quarterback for one of the most popular NFL franchises.
He kind of wishes she knew, because he'd kind of like to see her again.
But it isn't in the cards.
Or so he thinks.
Fast-forward to the beginning of the next football season and standing on the sidelines at his first game is none other than Allison, the one-night stand he hasn't been able to get out of his head.
Maybe they can pick up where they left off. See where things go. Take it nice and slow this time.
And maybe the demons from her past will show up and ruin the first good thing he's had going for as long as he can remember.
