Parker Hayes has never backed down from a challenge.
on the field or off.
As a fiercely competitive LSU softball player, she's used to winning, used to control, and definitely not used to losing... especially not when it comes to a bet.
So when her friends jokingly say she'd be perfect with Savannah Bananas star KJ, Parker laughs it off at first.
But the teasing doesn't stop, and before she knows it, something clicks. What starts as a joke turns into a challenge she refuses to ignore.
Because if there's one thing Parker doesn't do, it's lose.
The plan is simple: get his attention, make him fall, prove a point. Easy, right?
Except KJ isn't part of the plan. He's unpredictable, charming in a way she didn't prepare for, and somehow always one step ahead.
And somewhere between late night conversations, stolen glances, and moments that feel a little too real... the lines between strategy and sincerity start to blur.
Parker thought she was in control of the game.
But what if she's not the mastermind after all?
