They say what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. Except when you marry the girl you’ve always wanted. Brooke Linson has always been untouchable. My teammate’s little sister. The girl everyone protected.
The one dating the campus douchebag while pretending she was fine. But I saw her differently. I always have. The quiet strength. The darkness behind her eyes.
The way she carried the weight of everyone else’s expectations like it was her job to keep the world steady. Then one reckless night changes everything. Now she’s my wife at the worst possible time.
My football career is taking off, her future is just beginning, and calling this a mistake would be easy. But I don’t want easy. I want her.
I have one shot to prove I’m more than just a football player—and that this Vegas marriage deserves a real ending. And this time, I’m going to lock her down.
