In college, Emersyn Tanner and Savannah Sanchez were fierce competitors, basketball savants, and reluctant teammates forced to play on the same side of the ball. When competition gives way to intense attraction they desperately try to resist, it's too late. The pressure of their futures, risking it all, and coming out prove too much.

Years later, the game clock resets as fate brings the former college team to a luxury resort in Mexico in celebration of their old coach's wedding. As soon as Emersyn and Savannah lock eyes, the temptation they buried rushes back to the surface and threatens to burn down their carefully constructed walls-and neatly curated lives. The chemistry is instant and impossible to ignore.

Set against the tantalizing heat of the tropics, this slow-burn second-chance romance explores love that never ends, passion that can't be denied, and the courage to claim forever.
