Broke walk-on kicker Eli Wells will do anything to win custody of his little brother—even take paid dates. His newest client is Jace Carter: star quarterback, untouchable heir, and the stranger Eli abandoned after one scorching night. Jace offers a contract: play his boyfriend, fool his family, and “no catching feelings.” Easy—until he snarls, “Touch him again and I’ll end you,” then chooses Eli over his fortune. But with a forced engagement, a forged breakup, and a kidnapping closing in, their fake romance turns dangerously real. Can Jace protect Eli—or will loving him cost them everything?
