With her relationship shattered and her trust in love shaken, Katie does the only thing she can think of: she leaves the disaster behind and heads to a nearby bowling alley bar for a drink.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat's where she meets Harlan Taylor, a charming local football hero who becomes the perfect distraction from her heartbreak. One drink turns into one unforgettable night, and for a brief moment, Katie remembers what it feels like to be wanted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHarlan, a star player and devoted single dad, has never forgotten Katie or the chemistry they shared. When he asks for another chance, she can't say no. But their timing couldn't be more complicated. Katie's yoga studio has just been hired by Harlan's football team, making the man she's trying not to fall for completely off limits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe more time Katie spends with Harlan, the harder it becomes to ignore what's growing between them. Beneath his confident athlete persona is a caring father and a man who knows exactly how to make her feel valued. But Katie has already watched one promise of forever fall apart, and trusting Harlan means risking her heart all over again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs their connection deepens, Katie must decide if she is willing to believe in love again. Because sometimes the person who helps you heal isn't the person you planned for.
