Trust Me Deep
Ketley Allison
The doctors said my football career was over, but they didn't mention the universe was about to throw me one hell of a Hail Mary.
When Carter Jameson barges into my life with news of a daughter I never knew existed, I'm not exactly father-of-the-year material. But there's something about this fiercely protective woman that makes me want to be.
She stays as my roommate to help with a temporary deal that quickly blurs every line we've drawn. Trapped under the same roof, between midnight bottle feedings and stolen glances, I'm discovering parts of myself I thought died on that football field.
Carter sees beyond the fallen athlete everyone mourns, challenging me in ways no one else dares. She's healing wounds I didn't know I had while creating entirely new ones I'm not ready to face.
Now the clock's running down on our roommate agreement, and I'm realizing the scariest thing isn't learning to be a father—it's watching her walk away when our time's up.
Some games you can't afford to lose.
