Gossip Game. Baltimore Blaze, #5

Heiress Charlotte Davis has pulled some impulsive stunts in her twenty-seven years. Ranking right up at the top? "Buying" at auction the quarterback of her brother's precious football team, the Baltimore Blaze. In her defense, the event was for charity. Besides, she owed the guy one. He'd rescued her from a situation even more dire years before-right before he broke her heart. After a dismal season, Noah Hudson's reputation with the fans and the media is circling the drain.
Getting "bought" by a notorious tabloid princess wasn't exactly the shot in the arm he was hoping for. Especially since the same woman badly bruised his ego when she ghosted him years ago. But when the two share a mocking kiss in front of the cameras, a feeding frenzy is ignited among football's talking heads. Suddenly, the Blaze are winning games and women around the world are all over social media cheering them on.
So what if it's a bunch of Charlotte's faithful fans buying up Noah's jersey? If their influence keeps him as the team's starter, he can work with that. When a vindictive sports reporter begins to spread malicious gossip about Noah and Charlotte, however, the two are forced to face their past mistakes and, just maybe, build a future together. This second chance novella can be read as a standalone.
It takes readers back to Baltimore where they'll reconnect with their favorite Blaze players and their families.
