Lines in the Pitch - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

She came to New Zealand to disappear.

After leaving behind the life that nearly broke her, Dr. Claire Ashford takes a job as team doctor for one of the most elite rugby clubs in the world, determined to keep her head down, survive one season, and avoid anything that threatens the fragile peace she’s rebuilt. No attachments. No complications. No professional athletes with dangerous smiles and the ability to get under her skin.

Unfortunately, the team has other plans.

Noah Wilson -- the club’s relentless flanker captain -- is all control, pressure, and quiet intensity. He watches everything, notices too much, and treats Claire like someone worth protecting even when she absolutely does not want to be.

Then there’s Jack Hayworth.

The star winger is reckless charm wrapped in speed, and bad decisions. Jack lives his life one day at a time, pushes every button Claire has, and somehow still manages to see the parts of her she’s tried hardest to bury.

One man feels like safety.
The other feels like freefall.
And Claire is terrified she might want both.

As the season grows bloodier, the media scrutiny intensifies, and tensions inside the team begin to fracture under the weight of jealousy and loyalty, Claire realizes the past she ran from was never going to stay buried.

And when it finally crashes back into her life, the choice between Noah and Jack may destroy far more than just her heart.
