Support Your Local Hooker

He’s the team’s Hooker with a chip on his shoulder. She’s their physical therapist—and strictly off-limits.

Noah Walker doesn’t do subtle. On the field or off. The Carolina Rovers’ explosive Hooker is used to pain, pressure, and making things happen with brute force—and maybe that’s why the team’s new physical therapist, Chiara Giardino, drives him absolutely insane.
She’s calm, clinical, and completely uninterested in his usual charm—or his abs.
Worse, she’s got one rule.
No dating athletes. Ever.
But Noah’s never been good at rules. Not when it comes to her.
She’s fire and ice, and every time her hands are on his body—for medical purposes, of course—he wants more. Wants her. And he’s not above playing dirty to get it.
Chiara didn’t sign up for temptation in tight rugby shorts. She came to Consequence for a fresh start, a career upgrade, and absolutely no drama. But Noah Walker is a walking contradiction—gruff, loyal, unexpectedly sweet—and he’s wearing her down.
One collision. One kiss. One risky play.
Suddenly, it’s game on.
And this time, the Hooker might lose his heart.

Series Reviews

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Noah is determined to change Chiara’s mind about a relationship with him. The self-talk she goes through to convince herself otherwise! I thoroughly enjoyed their story.” – ARC Reader
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Noah Walker is the ‘hooker’ for the Rugby team the Carolina Rovers. Chiara is the new physical therapist for the team. One look and Noah’s hooked but Chiara won’t give him the time of day. If anything that makes Noah more sure that she’s the one for him. Fast spicy steamy hot read. I loved how Noah would not give up and fought for Chiara. Great read, once started I couldn’t stop. Has the perfect happy ever after too.” – BookBub Reviewer
