The fourth interconnected standalone in the universe of TikTok sensation Say You Swear, from USA Today bestselling author Meagan Brandy. Full of angst, heat, and set against the background of college football, this series is perfect for fans of Chloe Walsh, L.J. Shen, and Elle Kennedy. On the outside, it looks like I've got it all together. I'm killing it on the football field, pushing harder than ever before and breaking league records. But on the inside, I'm a mess, the pressure of the game too much, the betrayal from someone I trusted weighing me down with every breath. I'm drowning and there's no one to pull me up. Until her. I tried to stay away, to keep my distance so I wouldn't ruin us both, but I was powerless against her. She's everything I didn't know I wanted and more than I could ever deserve. That right there is how I knew I couldn't keep her, but that didn't stop me from falling in love with her. Just when I think maybe I'm becoming the man I want to be, my world comes crashing down around me, and I'm faced with a choice that has the power to break us both. Suddenly, I'm right back where I started. I'm the guy with nothing to give--and she's the girl who deserves the world.
