Nora Quinn needs the paycheck. Deacon Reyes needs someone to see him. Neither of them needs the rule they're about to break.
As assistant athletic trainer for Halston U, Nora has one job: keep the football team on the field and keep her hands off it. Deacon, the All-Conference tight end and the quietest captain in the program, is the one player she can't send to a doctor without ending his season.
So she tapes his ribs. He walks her home. And somewhere between the injury report and the homecoming game, they stop pretending it's medical.
When someone leaks photos to force Deacon off the roster, Nora takes the fall. She didn't expect him to take it with her.
