It's a slow burn with these enemies-to-lovers, from USA Today bestselling author Danielle Allen in the first book in her football romance series
Nova Thomas pays attention to the little things. As an athletic trainer for the Maryland Monarchs, it's one of the many skills that make her great at her job. So, when she noticed something was off with Defensive Tackle Jay Channing, she offered to help. That did not go well. When she confronts him a second time, it made things worse. Then a season ending injury takes Channing out of the game, and he's willing to do anything to play again - except work with Nova. Which was fine with Nova. Unfortunately for them both, she's been assigned (read: forced) to rehabilitate him.
