Truly Madly Deeply Mine by Katherine Jay

Football was my entire world…until a beautiful stranger turned it upside down.
Lucy Mathers is fun and careful, outgoing yet reserved, wild and a little mysterious. She’s also a distraction I never saw coming. Before her, I had a one-track mind, football was my focus, and nothing was going to derail that.
But when one unforgettable moment turns into a whirlwind romance, suddenly I want more from life. I want Lucy. I want it all.
The only problem is…she has other ideas.
After she disappears without an explanation, I should hate her. Especially when she’s suddenly standing in front of me at my new job, years later, with a smile on her face as though she belongs there. As if she didn’t destroy me when she left.
Working with Lucy is hard. Keeping my hands to myself is even harder. But pretending I no longer care just might be the hardest thing of all.
Because Lucy has a secret. It’s why she ran away in the first place. And it’s tearing her apart.
It’s tearing me apart.
They say there’s a fine line between love and hate, but when Lucy’s in trouble, I can’t resist doing do everything in my power to help her…
Even if it breaks us.
