Football was always simpleāfollow the playbook, make the sacrifice, win the game.
I lived by that rule for decades, and it cost me everything. My marriage. My daughter.
By ten, she believed I loved the game more than her. Now sheās back in my lifeāwith a family of her ownāI fight every day to show her Iāve changed.
Then I fumble it all by falling for her best friend.
Amanda is strong, stubborn, and raising her daughter alone after her husbandās betrayal.
One kiss becomes something neither of us can ignore.
She wants to keep it secret. I donāt.
Because this time, Iām willing to risk the play. I wonāt lose my second chance at love.
