She’s his best friend’s ex… and everything he shouldn’t want. 

Lennox Cross has always followed the rules to a T.  Graduate early. Build a career in hospitality. Date the perfect guy. But when everything falls apart, she turns to the last person she should–her ex’s best friend and roommate. 

Daniel Karamzin was drafted to the Cleveland Vortex almost a decade ago. He’s controlled, loyal, and avoids drama at all costs–especially when it involves his best friend and teammate.

But when Lennox needs help, Daniel’s protective instincts override his common sense. Living under the same roof throws gasoline on a fire neither of them can contain. 

Crossing the line could shatter their lives. It means betrayal. Staying away feels impossible. Can they risk the fallout for a shot at something real–or will loyalty cost them their chance at love?
