Buzzer

About this book

She healed his body. He saved her heart.

Ace Navarro has everything riding on one night. Senior year. NBA scouts in the stands. A draft contract that would pull his mother out of her back-to-back jobs and pay for his little brother's surgery. All he has to do is stay on the court.

Maya Holt is the razor-tongued physical therapy intern who is the only person in Westfall University who doesn't treat him like a god. To her, he's nothing but a walking final project — arrogant, reckless, and dangerously charming. She's immune to all of it. She has to be.

Then comes the buzzer. The shot. And the sickening pop that destroys everything.

With a shattered ACL, a five-month countdown to the NBA draft, and his family's future on the line, Ace has no choice but to surrender everything to the one woman who refuses to let him fail. Maya doesn't sugarcoat, doesn't bend rules, and absolutely does not fall for her patients.

Absolutely not.

But as six-AM rehab sessions turn into whispered confessions, as the lines between therapist and patient begin to blur, both of them realize that the most dangerous game they've ever played has nothing to do with basketball.

Because winning the draft might save Ace's career. But losing Maya might cost him everything else.
