Ashton James and Marcus Vell were never meant to cross paths. Not only are they from two entirely different worlds, but their families hate each other. Despite this rivalry, a curiosity grows, creating a magnetic pull neither can ignore.

When that curiosity leads to a stolen moment that ends in heartache and betrayal, both their worlds are turned upside down.

Four years later, Marcus has clawed his way back up from rock bottom, having earned a rare scholarship to play basketball at an elite private university. But this new beginning isnt the fresh start Marcus thought it would be—not when he realizes Ashton James has also joined the team. The tension between them is thick, but the past is hard to forget.

This is the second chance Ashton has been waiting for. Determined to make up for his past mistakes, Ashton uses their forced proximity to his advantage—wielding his charm to pursue the man he never could forget.

Just as Marcus begins to let his guard down, life throws them a wild shot. To protect their rekindling flame, Ashton and Marcus begin to question their families’ feud. As the truth comes out, they have to decide what’s more important: playing the game they’ve always played, or creating their own rules, both on and off the court.
