An obsessive football player pursues a girl with airtight defenses in USA Today-bestselling author C.R. Jane's scorcher of a sequel to The Wrong Quarterback.

All Riley wants is to be cared for. But she goes unnoticed by her parents, unloved by the boyfriend who left her, and constantly exhausted by a body that betrays her. When someone she trusts offers her everything she's ever dreamed of, Riley accepts. A year later, all that's left of her is a broken, empty shell. So she runs away to college and doesn't look back . . .

Jace Thatcher is campus royalty. The only thing the gorgeous star athlete loves more than football is winning--on and off the field. Lately, he's felt like something's missing, and when he spots Riley in a crowded bar, her presence is like a punch to the gut. Jace immediately knows she's his; she just doesn't know it yet.

Their red-hot encounter leaves Riley shaken to the core, but she knows better than to let herself get burned again. She plans to keep Jace at arm's length, but the Tennessee Tigers' wide receiver is suddenly everywhere she looks. He says he wants to take care of her forever, that there's no point in running. Because he's playing for her heart--and he has no intention of losing.

This deluxe edition features sprayed edges with stenciled artwork, two character illustrations, a signed letter from the author, a curated playlist, and a recipe from the story.
