<p><strong><em>Dylan</em></strong></p><p>As a proud physiotherapist fresh out of school I never imagined falling for a client. Especially not fallen football star Lake Decker. His over-confident broody attitude has me biting my tongue and doing whatever it takes to keep this job and support my secrets. Secrets Lake keeps pushing me to unravel.</p><p><br></p><p><strong><em>Lake </em></strong></p><p>I don't fall for women. Women fall for me. I'm Lake Decker best running back in the league. Former. After a debilitating injury forced me to step back from my budding career the last thing I thought I'd be doing is drooling at the feet of my stale-looking therapist. But her saucy attitude strict professionalism and the occasional shiner have my curiosities piqued.</p><p>One thing is certain we both know how to act tough in the face of adversity but at our core <em>we're nothing but a couple of cowards.</em></p>
