You and Malachi Barton have been inseparable your entire lives—childhood best friends, neighbors, teammates, and practically family. As the team’s manager, you’re the one keeping everything together and helping lead the boys to victory after victory, all while secretly being in love with Malachi. One night, Malachi crosses the line between friendship and something more, making you believe that after all these years, he might finally feel the same way. But the next day, everything changes when you overhear him bragging to the team about the night before and admitting that he already has his sights set on someone else. Heartbroken and humiliated, you quietly walk away before he can see you. Now you have to figure out how to face the boy who has been your best friend your entire life—especially when he has no idea that you heard every word.
