False Start

Madelyn is a recently divorced realtor trying to sell a high-commission mansion so she can finally move away with her son Sebastian and escape her abusive ex-husband for good.

Her new client turns out to be Kyle Robbins, a Seattle NFL rookie tight end and the teenage love who once shattered her heart — and neither of them expects the collision.

When Kyle sees the bruises left by Madelyn's ex, his instinct to protect her turns into something far more personal, pulling both of them into a scheme neither can back out of.

Kandi Steiner continues the Red Zone Rivals series with a second-chance sports romance built on old wounds, real danger, and a fake arrangement that stops feeling fake fast.
